Multi-Color implements ERP software in all locations

Cincinnati based, Multi-Color Corporation, the world’s largest  producer of both in-mold labels and heat transfer labels, and a major manufacturer of high-end  pressure sensitive labels and shrink sleeves, has purchased Radius Solutions’ PECAS Vision ERP  application. Multi-Color has decided to  implement PECAS Vision in all of their manufacturing locations. Multi-Color is live at four of its plants, with the fifth plant expected to implement on August 1st of this year.     From the original kickoff meeting to the first live plant, which also included the corporate headquarters it took a total of ten months for Multi-Color to “go-live”, with additional plants taking approximately two-three months per plant.
Multi-Color Director of Information Technology Mike Kuehn says: “Things are going well. Our facilities are beginning to see the value of putting in a common, integrated solution across all facilities. Radius has worked hard to resolve any issues we have had.
“We have a  dedicated project team to do the implementations and Radius has been able to provide assistance with training and support.”    
Radius Solutions President David Taylor is delighted with the implementation thus far.  He says, “We have been in business more than 30 years. We have an industry specific solution  and we know how to execute a successful multi-site implementation. The Multi-Color project is just about complete and I think both parties would agree the experience has been a positive one.”   
Multi-Color is currently in the planning stages of adding three additional facilities to  PECAS Vision in the first half of 2006.
