AXIS ERP from Consona Corporation is chosen by Ulbrich Stainless Steels and Metals, Inc.

Consona Corporation (Consona), a worldwide leader in providing customer relationship management (CRM) and enterprise resource planning (ERP) software and services for companies of all sizes, recently announced that Ulbrich Stainless Steels and Metals, Inc., an international supplier of custom rolled strip, foil, flat and shaped wire products, has concluded the second major implementation of the AXIS ERP solution at its shaped wire facility. The new implementation will streamline Ulbrich’s ERP business processes, providing cost savings across its sales, manufacturing and costing functions.

Ulbrich, a major processor and distributor of stainless steel, nickel alloys, titanium and other special metals, was founded by Fred Ulbrich, Sr. in 1924 as a scrap metal reselling business. Over the years, the business has evolved, and now employs almost 700 people in six countries around the world. Ulbrich’s growth and geographic diversity soon revealed inefficiencies in its two legacy information systems, so the company decided to standardize on a single ERP system across all business units, hoping to streamline its business processes. “With 15 different companies around the world, it was critical that we have a standard ERP system in place that could also offer some customizations for our unique business needs,” said Vic D’Amato, corporate controller, Ulbrich.
