Guthrie Machine Works has been a leader in CNC manufacturing for over 40 years. It provides full CNC machining services, including screw machining, lathe, milling and broaching. Since emphasis is placed on quality, strict adherence to customer specifications and on-time delivery, Guthrie needs intelligent and efficient manufacturing software.


In 2003, Guthrie Machine Works Production Manager, Dan Parkhurst, was looking for a way to modernize his shop. Even though its old DOS-based system was working « okay », he knew he could do better by increasing the speed and ease with which he could enter process and ship his orders. He chose the E2 ERP system for its quicker order entry and shipping functions, more accurate tracking, as well as the ability to import data from his customers via the Internet.


Dan Parkhurst has been very pleased with E2 since implementing the software at Guthrie Machine Works. Quicker, more efficient order entry and shipping processes have saved him both time and money; and he can track shop operations much more accurately. His employees have found the system easy to use, minimizing the start-up time. Shop reports generated by E2 have been a plus as well – Dan says that his E2 reports are easier to generate and to understand, and he can determine exactly which reports he needs to run to monitor his operations.

"For anyone who has set up an MRP program, this was very intuitive and easy to set up and use."
