Go-live Marks a Major Milestone in Modernizing Operations, with a Future Integration Planned with Workday Financial Management Set to Enable a Fully Connected, Data-Driven Enterprise

San Ramon, CA (May 14, 2024) - Rootstock Software today announced that Structural Technologies, LLC (Structural Technologies), a subsidiary of Structural Group, Inc., has successfully gone live with Rootstock ERP, marking a major milestone in the company's digital transformation journey. The implementation modernizes Structural Technologies' manufacturing operations, replacing outdated manual processes with automated workflows, real-time data visibility, and seamless integration across key business systems.

Structural Technologies (https://www.structuraltechnologies.com/), headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, specializes in service life management of civil infrastructure and provides solution development, product systems, and construction implementation aimed at extending the useful life of the built environment. To support its current product line and future expansion, the company needed a robust and flexible ERP solution to modernize manufacturing operations, integrate seamlessly with existing technology, and scale efficiently for continued growth.

"Our previous ERP was over three decades old and simply couldn't support the complexity and scale of our current manufacturing needs," said Matt Young (https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-young-62631a9/), CIO of Structural Group (https://www.structuralgroup.com/). "Rootstock was chosen for its comprehensive set of capabilities and seamless collaboration with Salesforce Sales Cloud, which we've used for years. Rootstock also has a certified Workday integration, which we will leverage as we deploy Workday Financial Management to unify our solutions, ensuring smooth data flow and enhanced efficiency."

Another key component of this project was the integration of Structural Technologies' homegrown engineering system—used for 25 years—with Rootstock. This integration has significantly improved workflow by eliminating the need for manual data entry and providing real-time visibility into forecasts and procurement. With automated updates replacing manual processes, teams now have a clearer picture of production progress and inventory availability, enabling more accurate planning and faster decision-making. Additionally, work orders are fully operational in Rootstock, allowing the company to calculate labor and material costs more precisely.

"The Rootstock implementation went remarkably well," added Young. "From the outset, their team took a deep dive into our business challenges, ensuring the ERP was tailored to fit our needs. The go-live was seamless—exactly the kind of smooth transition every company hopes for. Together, we kept our teams engaged and tackled technical challenges head-on. Rootstock's expertise, responsiveness, and collaborative approach kept this project on track, and we're excited to build on this strong foundation in the next phase."

"Structural Technologies' successful go-live is a testament to how a well-executed ERP implementation can modernize manufacturing operations without major disruption," said Rick Berger (https://www.rootstock.com/about-erp-software-company/management-team/), CEO of Rootstock Software. "Their ability to transition from a decades-old system to a cloud-first ERP—without missing a beat—demonstrates both the strength of our technology and the dedication of their team. Structural Technologies took a strategic, forward-thinking approach, building a technology stack that aligns with both their current and future needs. With this foundation in place, they are well-positioned to scale, automate, and drive efficiency across their product lines. We're honored to support their ongoing transformation and look forward to the next phase of our partnership."

Structural Technologies is now preparing for phase two of its Rootstock ERP (https://www.rootstock.com/manufacturing-erp-software/) implementation, which will expand work order capabilities, enhance overhead cost tracking, and further automate manufacturing processes. This phase will also include the integration between Rootstock ERP and Workforce Financial Management (https://www.workday.com/en-us/products/financial-management/overview.html), enabling seamless data flow for deeper financial insights and even greater efficiencies.
