CHICAGO, June 19, 2026. Arista Consulting, a manufacturing-first ERP implementation and integration specialist, will exhibit at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2026, September 14-19 in Chicago. Visit Arista at Booth 135642 to learn how manufacturers are moving beyond fragmented tech stacks and multi-year migration cycles, without disrupting live operations.
The centerpiece of Arista's presence at IMTS will be a real-world deployment milestone: the successful go-live of QAD Adaptive across a Tier 1 Global Automotive Supplier: eight plants, three continents, eighteen months, replacing eighteen spreadsheet-based workarounds and reducing shipping approvals from six people to one.
The project demonstrated something the manufacturing industry has long questioned: whether cloud-native ERP can be deployed at production scale, across multiple geographies, without disrupting live operations. The answer, delivered under real manufacturing conditions, was yes.
"The real ERP decision isn't just about business process requirements," said Mayank Pundir, Managing Partner of Arista Consulting. "It's about master data, integration architecture, data flow, talent bandwidth, and operational continuity during the transition. Miss any of those, and a technically correct ERP choice becomes a program management disaster. What we proved with this deployment is that getting all of it right, platform, execution, and partner alignment, is achievable. And it doesn't have to take a decade."
A New Benchmark for Cloud ERP in Manufacturing
QAD Adaptive is a cloud-native ERP platform purpose-built for manufacturing and supply chain operations. Unlike general-purpose enterprise platforms, QAD Adaptive supports discrete, repetitive, mixed-mode, batch, and lean manufacturing out of the box, with integrated MPS, MRP, shop floor control, quality management, and embedded agentic AI.
The Tier 1 Global Automotive Supplier deployment, executed by Arista Consulting in partnership with QAD, delivered:
- Full MRP within QAD ERP, eliminating all spreadsheet-based planning
- Integrated WMS, including a China plant that went live on QAD's newly launched warehousing module within two months of its release
- Real-time operational dashboards and Action Center visibility across all sites
- Shipping process reduced from six people through multi-step approvals to one person, two steps
- Measurable improvements in scrap reduction, MRP accuracy, and inventory optimization across all sites
"Great accomplishment and great teamwork. Partner selection and commitment to excellence made this launch work and I am forever grateful."
