Customer Success

Sugar producer Ingenios Santos has dramatically improved business visibility, control and efficiency since migrating from disparate on-premise legacy applications.
Company has streamlined and automated core business processes including sales orders, procurement, multi-location inventory management, order management and fulfilment, customer management and more in a single integrated solution.
Real-time visibility into sugar stock across all five mills enables Ingenios Santos to optimize production processes and better meet customer demand.
Processes that previously took hours to complete (such as reviewing a sales order and calculating inventory across warehouses) are now accomplished in minutes.
Company has doubled its number of customers since going live on NetSuite.
NetSuite OneWorld global business solution provides management control over subsidiary sugars mills and enables multi-currency transactions in Mexican pesos, U.S. dollar and Euros.
Cloud-based solution provided business continuity and eliminated risk of damage to on-premise systems when a flood shut one mill for a month.
Rich customizability has enabled Ingenios Santos to easily tune NetSuite to meet unique business demands.

Solution

Ingenios Santos selected NetSuite over SAP, Microsoft and TOTVS as a solution offering superior business functionality and ease of customization.
Netsoft, a Mexico-based NetSuite partner that has led more than 60 NetSuite implementations, implemented the solution on time and on budget.
NetSuite cloud solution provides mobility and business continuity without the high IT maintenance and troubleshooting costs of the previous on-premise system.
