Radio Flyer
Radio Flyer looked to standardize global operations on a single, modern ERP platform to support business expansion and optimize strategic processes.

ICC operated on an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system that was 15 to 20 years in age; at the time the company operated out of two locations.
