Chicago Tube & Iron
Specialty steel service center and fabricator
Chicago Tube & Iron was at a technology dead-end: Its 30-year-old, green-screen Unix-based operations management system was heavily customized and difficult to maintain and update.
CT&I engaged Ultra Consultants to direct the project, steer CT&I through business process improvement (BPI), guide the software selection process and manage implementation. See how Ultra helped CT&I streamline their processes and gain valuable data and critical analysis through an ERP selected for their unique needs.
Challenges
- Current system had no fabrication management functionality
- System could not support engineer-to-order processes
“Ultra brought real value to the project, and was able to leverage its people, industry expertise and experience to get the job done. We don’t think we’d have been able to do it on our own.”
– Chris Prodoehl, Vice President of Information Technology
