Pyrotechnic and explosive device manufacturer to leverage Rootstock to enhance material resource planning, optimize inventory management, and support growth
San Ramon, CA (December 10, 2024) – Rootstock Software, a leader in the Manufacturing ERP space, today announced that Applied Energy Technology Corp. (AETC), a leading manufacturer of small explosive devices used in aerospace and defense, has selected Rootstock ERP to modernize its manufacturing operations and support its growth strategy. AETC will deploy Rootstock ERP to boost efficiency, improve material resource planning (MRP), and enhance data-driven decision-making capabilities.
AETC, headquartered in Burton, Texas (www.aesquibs.com), has over 45 years of experience specializing in the design and manufacturing of energetics, including explosive cartridges and other critical safety components. AETC is committed to maintaining exceptional product reliability while scaling its operations, and most importantly, giving AETC Executive Team visibility of the health of the business within their fingertip and on their mobile devices. In addition, it allows the employees to plan their day effectively and efficiently. AETC partnership with Rootstock ERP will play a key role in supporting this mission.
“We needed an ERP solution that could handle the complexity of modern manufacturing processes,” said Matt Salamone, Chief Operating Officer of AETC. “When we first initiated our digital transformation journey, our operations were still running on old-school systems, with drawings being faxed back and forth. Since then, our company has experienced significant growth, and it was time to implement a modern ERP that could support our increased capacity and project complexity.”
Rick Berger, CEO of Rootstock Software, expressed his excitement about working with AETC. “We’re thrilled to support Applied Energy Technology Corp. as they embark on this digital transformation journey. AETC’s selection of Rootstock reflects the growing demand for agile, scalable ERP solutions that deliver real-time insights and efficiency. By adopting Rootstock ERP, AETC will be able to streamline its operations and provide even greater value to its customers in the aerospace and defense sectors.”
“We see Rootstock ERP as a key part of our future,” said Salamone. “With Rootstock, we’ll have the tools we need to meet customer demand more effectively, improve on-time delivery, and scale our operations to handle new projects. Rootstock’s platform flexibility will also make it easier for our internal teams to adapt and evolve.”
