SteelSummit – Implements INVEX, a Metal Enterprise Software in 12 Months

Murfreesboro, TN – SteelSummit Holdings, a flat rolled metals distributor and processor, has implemented INVEX, a metal service center enterprise software from Invera, in less than 12 months across 5 locations. The implementation was performed by Prodin Business Solutions.

SteelSummit (SSH) implemented the full suite of INVEX metal software features for inventory management, steel purchasing, contract sales, coil, and sheet processing functions, shop-floor tablet and mobile functions, job scheduling, online shipment planning, and tablet-based production weight recording features for coil and sheets.

Warehouse operations, once slit coil or sheet has been produced, utilizes tablet- based functions to meet slitting, banding, packaging, and weighing requirements. INVEX mobile applications allow picking coils for processing or steel sheets to meet customer orders. 

INVEX also provides SSH the ability to quickly view inventory on a just-in-time (JIT) basis. Repetitive contract items can be easily released for shipment.

The integrated Shipment Planning function provides a comprehensive, multi-layer inquiry that summarizes orders by customer, delivery route, or delivery zone for better load consolidation.

We implemented INVEX in less than 12 months and look forward to implementing the INVEX MRP (material requirements planning) module to enhance and improve our ability to buy, manage, and achieve optimum inventory levels that maximize turns and meet customer forecast requirements”.
