Rather than software dictating our business, using Integrys Solutions’ detailed knowledge of our requirements combined with the inherent flexibility of Dynamics AX, we now define how we want to run and develop our business.

Food Manufacturing Industry Case Study
Overview
Ingram Brothers are one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of edible icings, fillings and toppings and a specialist in innovative bakery supplies. The company, which began as a sugar miller over 115 years ago, now operates one of the most technically advanced manufacturing facilities of its kind
“Over the past 30 years I have implemented a number of different systems, mostly accounting systems that had to be bespoked for a production environment. Microsoft Dynamics AX is the best system I’ve seen – a full-fledged production control system with integrated financials – and it works straight out of the box.”
Situation
Ahead of the move to its current 43,000 square feet, purpose-built production facility, Ingram Brothers learned that support was to be withdrawn for its 10-year-old bespoke accounting system.
Solution
Following a thorough review of its options, Ingram Brothers selected Microsoft Dynamics AX from Integrys. Microsoft’s long-term road map for Dynamics and Integrys’ manufacturing expertise were major deciding factors.
