Background: Logic PD understands the need to innovate. Based in Eden Prairie, Minn., the global product development and manufacturing provider works under the banner of "innovative product solutions." Its ability to bring ideas forward from the back burner has made it one of the nation’s best and brightest product realization companies. As a strategic partner, Logic PD works with its clients to leverage intellectual property that may not have seen the light of day otherwise. But as these successes grow, so can the pressure on Logic PD’s manufacturing operations. It’s a natural challenge for growing manufacturers.
This case study provides an overview of Savigent Software’s implementation of Catalyst xM™ at Logic PD. The system fully automates Logic PD's tracking and control of its box-build processes. Catalyst xM™ was introduced on a manufacturing line that has ten steps from the production request to the bulk packaging of the finished goods. It enforces compliance to the defined manufacturing standard — virtually error-proofing operations. The new system empowers Logic PD to scale faster, bring products to market more rapidly, increase customer visibility, and improve overall manufacturing efficiencies.
