Wolf Creek Distribution Optimizes Inventory With MITS

Wolf Creek Company is a wholesale distributor of equipment and supplies for landscape, golf course and agricultural irrigation, landscape lighting, water features, lake aeration, fountains, and systems for pumping, waste harvesting, retention and drainage. Founded in 1961, the Dayton, Ohio-based firm serves hundreds of customers in Ohio, Western Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Kentucky.


Wolf Creek uses Epicor Prophet 21 to manage its business and run day-to-day operations. That software solution enables the company to carefully manage their business, but there are a number of critical answers the ERP system doesn’t directly provide—answers that are essential to Wolf Creek’s success: inventory and sales.


Through its participation in the irrigation industry’s Virtualrain buying group, Wolf Creek learned that MITS had an analytics solution in use with other ERP’s. The MITS Distributor Analytics solution was prepared to work with Prophet 21 as well. Wolf Creek acquired a server to host the solution, and the MITS team installed and adapted its analytic solution to work seamlessly with Prophet 21.


With the new solution in place, Wolf Creek sees significant advantages already. Now, sales reps can log into the MITS solution directly on their iPads and see how things are going across their entire customer base. With access to deep, item by- item inventory analysis, the company can—in a general way—better decide what to store in what quantities, and where. More specifically, it’s much faster and easier to identify specific instances of too much or too little stock.
