Customer Case Studies

Real results from real MaxScheduler customers.

Automotive — Quality Assurance

EZ Industrial Solutions

Challenge: EZ Industrial was scheduling 120+ jobs and 2.5 million parts per day on a whiteboard. They attempted an MRP implementation that failed because it couldn't track critical LOT and BIN numbers.

Solution: MaxScheduler integrated with QuickBooks to import jobs automatically. A custom implementation was completed in two months.

Result: A visual scheduling system projected on a large screen TV. Eliminated the whiteboard entirely and pushed out the need for an MRP system by years.

"There is no way possible we could operate today without MaxScheduler."
— Rick Chalmers, Quality Manager
Warehousing — Receiving

Consumer Storage Systems Manufacturer

Challenge: A 600,000 sq. ft. facility with 12 receiving doors was scheduling with pen and paper. This caused inefficiencies, required staff to physically check the schedule, and made communicating changes difficult.

Solution: MaxScheduler was configured for receiving door scheduling in a matter of hours — specifying the number and order of receiving doors.

Result: A digital, always-current schedule visible to all. Scheduling time reduced and communication improved dramatically.

"MaxScheduler was the right size, elegant solution, to help solve our immediate problem."
— Al S., Warehouse Manager
Delivery Planning — Logistics

FairGreen Sod

Challenge: During spring rush, the owner was spending 2–3 hours each day manually sorting delivery invoices into truck routes — after an already full day running the business.

Solution: MaxScheduler created a tool that exports invoice data from the accounting system, generates an optimized truck load plan, minimizes travel distances, and maximizes trailer capacity.

Result: Daily delivery planning reduced from hours to minutes. Delivery slips printed in route order. A delivery map with truck routes generated automatically.

"MaxScheduler saved us hours every day during our busiest season."
