Client

Mid-market manufacturer partnered with Spectrum to address operational and technology gaps in manufacturing. Finance teams manually keyed supplier invoices into ERP. Mismatched PO lines and missing approvals delayed month-end close. Spectrum applied a phased delivery model — 12 weeks — aligning stakeholders, compliance needs, and production cadence. Since 2016, Spectrum has delivered similar programs with managed teams and fixed-cost options.

Business challenge

  • Operational pressure

    Finance teams manually keyed supplier invoices into ERP. Mismatched PO lines and missing approvals delayed month-end close.

  • Legacy constraints

    Existing systems could not support required speed, scale, or visibility without modernization.

  • Risk & compliance

    Regulated or customer-facing workflows demanded audit trails and controlled change management.

  • Competitive timing

    Market and regulatory timelines required incremental delivery rather than a multi-year big-bang rewrite.
