IQMS Helps Drive 60 Percent Growth for

Leading Short-Run Manufacturer

Donnelly Custom Manufacturing Optimizes Operations, Doubles Complexity with EnterpriseIQ

(Paso Robles, CA) August 28, 2007 - IQMS, a leader in the design and development of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) software, today announced that Alexandria, Minnesota based Donnelly Custom Manufacturing, a leading short-run injection molder, has driven 60 percent growth with widely-used, single source EnterpriseIQ software. As a long-standing IQMS customer, Donnelly has seen across-the-board improvements and optimized efficiency to double its complexity swiftly and with a smaller office staff than was in place before installing IQMS.

"There are a lot of hard truths in our industry that we need software to manage," says Ron Kirscht president at Donnelly. "For example, we might have one tool that makes 64 parts every cycle. A lot of ERP systems can't handle these truths. You have to lie to the system to trick it into doing what you need it to do, but EnterpriseIQ can handle the truth. It easily manages many key aspects of our business and simplifies processes so we can embrace a greater level of complexity and manage it well."

The significance of Kirscht's statement is best seen by truly understanding the level of complexity Donnelly competitively manages using EnterpriseIQ. Plante & Moran, the nation's 11th largest certified public accounting and business advisory firm, defines manufacturing complexity as the number of active resins multiplied by the number of active presses multiplied again by the number of active molds a company has in process. The upper quartile of this index is 1.2 million, but Donnelly's complexity index tops 42 million.

"In today's demand economy, short-run manufacturing is growing exponentially complex," explains Randy Flamm, president and founder of IQMS. "That complexity translates into growth potential, but to remain competitive, companies like Donnelly must strategically optimize operations for efficiency and quality. EnterpriseIQ is proven best suited to help all types of manufacturers do just that by providing advanced and feature-rich solutions designed specifically for their industries. As a committed business partner to each of our customers, we are truly pleased to support the growing success of leading companies like Donnelly Custom Manufacturing."
