We sat down with nine people at ConMet's Monroe plant, from the VP who led the project to the foundry tech on the floor, to hear how it really went. No scripts. Just the honest version.
THE PROBLEM
An aging maintenance system. A forced replacement. Purchasing, engineering, manufacturing, maintenance, and asset management all had to agree on a change none of them asked for.
THE OUTCOME
- Work orders that took 15 to 30 minutes to sync now update instantly
- Teams report saving multiple hours a day
- Reduced inventory dollars and real lead-time visibility across storerooms
- Full-team adoption in 4 to 8 weeks, in most cases
THE APPROACH
ConMet ran a year-long head-to-head evaluation, piloted at the plant with the right people (not the newest one), and let early adopters bring their peers along. Ultimo supported the rollout with a two-week on-site surge and a weekly check-in that is still running.
