Manufacturer and marketer of high-quality frozen foods implements Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 on time and within budget

San Francisco, California – October 25, 2011 – Windsor Foods, an industry leader in the frozen foods sector, partnered with SYSTIME to realize its full technology and business growth potential. By upgrading to Oracle's JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0, the manufacturer and marketer has gained a unified system and a competitive advantage. Since its establishment in 1996, this privately held, family-owned company has grown to include nine manufacturing plants in seven US states. Windsor Foods planned to continue its expansion, and for this an intelligent, single version of business truth was essential.

Prior to the upgrade, the company was using JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 8.9 for its financial, sales, and distribution processes, and legacy systems for manufacturing requirements. Windsor Foods needed to advance to a consolidated system, one able to absorb all future acquisitions. It also needed to streamline complex financial operations, and address business challenges.

Partnering with SYSTIME, Windsor Foods recognized the many ways that JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 could help meet its needs. Completed in just 22 weeks, this upgrade leveraged SYSTIME's on-site, off-shore delivery model for an on-time, within-budget result.

Windsor Foods is now enabled to take better business decisions with enhanced functionalities in multiple areas. With the upgrade, Windsor Foods has gained an all-important foundation for future growth.

Stephan Henze, Vice President IT, Windsor Foods said, "SYSTIME's expertise and methodology contributed to the fact that our JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 upgrade was 100% on schedule and within budget. This high quality solution has helped us lay a robust functional and technical base for our future business expansion. From a business perspective, this is a big step forward for Windsor Foods."

"Windsor Foods relies on a consistently high level of technology. From quality control of its production facilities to operations, the right platform was essential for this customer," said Lyle Ekdahl, Group Vice President General Manager, JD Edwards Oracle. "JD Edwards EnterpriseOne 9.0 has provided a strong and flexible architecture for the business, which is now ready to capitalize on this best-of-breed technology and enjoy further growth."

Vishal Grover, President and CEO, SYSTIME said, "At SYSTIME, we believe in providing our clients with successful, sustainable solutions. We understood Windsor's need for a more comprehensive ERP, one that could support its future growth needs. Our mature on-site, off-shore model and proprietary SYS-on-TIME methodology enabled a highly successful upgrade. This upgrade has reinforced Windsor Foods as an industry leader utilizing the most advanced technology, best practices and innovative strategies to maintain its competitive advantage."
