FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Keystone Foods Joins Roster of Poultry Producers Using Impact:ECS
Leading poultry processor Keystone Foods recently signed
with 3C Software to implement the Impact:ECS Costing System.
The solution will provide Keystone’s accounting, finance and
business leaders to immediate access of detailed and
customized costing data. The agreement, which covers the
poultry further processing division, will provide the tools
and expertise for Keystone to develop a fully-integrated
platform to manage, calculate and analyze vital cost data.
The company, with 2004 annual sales of $2.8 billion, is a
strategic partner and long-time supplier to a leading fast
food restaurant chain. As a vendor to one of the world’s
most recognized brands, Keystone is compelled to focus on
costs to remain competitive. The goal of the Impact:ECS
installation is to reduce Keystone’s dependence on legacy
systems and unwieldy spreadsheets and implement a solution
that will provide accurate cost data, better reporting,
improved user interfaces and integration with existing
systems. In addition, Impact:ECS is the system of choice
because of its ability to handle both assembly and
disassembly functions within its flexible design. The 3C
Software Professional Services team will work directly with
Keystone’s accounting staff in developing models to compute
standard and actual costs, value and track inventory,
forecast yields and variances, and deliver customized
reports.
With the addition of Keystone Foods, 3C Software continues
to develop a solid presence in the meat processing vertical
industries. “By demonstrating the flexibility of Impact:ECS
in this unique industry, we are helping companies who
traditionally have spent significant amounts on home-grown
or Excel-based systems get timely access to actionable cost
data,” shares 3C Software CEO Matthew Smith. Keystone joins
Smithfield Foods, Townsends and Premium Standard Farms in
acknowledging the importance of effective, enterprise-wide
cost management with Impact:ECS.
