Solution	Nature’s One found the solution to their challenges in Deacom ERP. This system is designed to eliminate the need for bolt-ons without requiring a compromise in systems. It brings all vital information – from supply chain to inventory and everything in between – into one system. This allowed Nature’s One to easily track every item received, its source, and where it is being stored. The implementation of Deacom ERP began in January 2012 and was fully live by May, with minimal disruptions to operations. Deacom ERP helps Nature’s One uphold high quality control standards to ensure optimal product purity and nutrition. It also helps the company track, pinpoint, and isolate the source of any issue so that actions can be taken to rectify the issue before it enters the ingredient stream in production. After a server crash in 2019, Nature’s One decided to invest in Deacom ERP’s Managed Cloud Services (MCS) to provide a higher level of system reliability and accessibility to users.

Impact #1	The implementation of Deacom ERP has brought significant operational benefits to Nature’s One. The system has helped the company uphold its high quality control standards and ensure optimal product purity and nutrition. It has also improved the company's ability to track and trace each ingredient from the moment it enters the facility as a raw ingredient through its shipment as a finished good. This has enhanced the company's regulatory compliance and provided complete visibility into their operations. The system has also helped reduce the risk of human errors through the use of scanners throughout the facility, which records complete information for traceability purposes. Furthermore, the company has been able to eliminate its dependency on a locally installed version of Deacom ERP while still offering users the same level of access to critical information no matter where they are located.
