Lucas is a long-standing, successful manufacturer of coatings and mastics with offices in Chicago and Alsip, IL, serving the professional building contractor. In order to sustain their success and plan for future growth, R.M. Lucas agreed that a complete ERP solution was a critical next step for the company.

Lucas plans to use BatchMaster for better visibility into manufacturing so they can track the progress of batches and identify potential problems before they surface. “The ability to create Standard Operating Procedures in manufacturing will streamline several steps and provide better accountability,” added Applegate.
