Prophit Systems
Building Supply Chain Solutions for Tomorrow

For more than two decades, Prophit Systems has been providing significant results to the APAC packaging industry. The company's success is underpinned by its ability to deliver a return on investment (ROI) in less than 12 months on supply chain improvement projects. These returns are based on demonstrable savings in inventory and a reduction in operational costs while delivering a competitive advantage to clients' supply chains. "At Prophit Systems, we believe your supply chain is a competitive advantage, and by serving your customers to meet and exceed their expectations while lowering costs and increasing productivity, you can further dominate your market," says Tim Gray, Founder and Managing Director of Prophit Systems.

Since 2005, the company's Prophit Impact program has delivered an average of 452 percent ROI to its packaging clients. The program automates supply chain processes, then liberates and elevates the planning roles from "reactionary" through "planning to serve" and then on to "cost optimised." By automating tasks and making transparent the cost drivers and key decision points within the supply chain, planners will move on to planning by exception. They will be able to make faster, more informed decisions, which translate in to improved customer satisfaction, clear cost visibility, and faultless working capital management. "Ultimately it will be your own people who deliver these massive and sustainable financial improvements in your business," mentions Gray.

Prophit Systems' best-of-breed software is ERP agnostic. It integrates with and augments your existing systems. ERP systems are necessary to run your business. They provide perfect hindsight but little planning foresight and certainly will not offer the visibility to make good planning decisions. Inevitably, spreadsheets are the quick answer to most planning functions; however, the business processes fail, and planning decisions deteriorate when planners spend their time maintaining intertwined spreadsheet ghettos.A robust planning solution is to look ahead to avoid tomorrow's pending issues, especially in unprecedented times such as COVID when hindsight is of little or no value.

Prophit was developed to provide true foresight across the supply chain, keeping customers satisfied and plants optimised, while right-sizing the inventory across the supply chain. "We provide a software platform that ensures daily decisions are made with foresight and transparency in line with the supply chain strategy," states Gray.

Prophit Systems' niche is customers that want their monthly S&OP/IBP processes to be integrated with their weekly planning and daily execution activities and impeccable customer service. The results Prophit Systems' solutions achieve are nothing less than transformational, and clients report massive reductions in the cost to serve their customers as a direct result of implementing Prophit on top of their ERP solution.

Prophit Systems currently serves a plethora of markets, including FMCG market, medical devices, and many other manufacturing sectors. "Our systems have been designed to be flexible for any manufacturing environment," says Gray. No wonder that Prophit Systems caters to a wide variety of clients, including; VISY, AMCOR, Orora Group, OPAL, Detmold, SCG, SIG Combibloc, Jamestrong, George Western Foods, Brownes Dairy, British American Tobacco, Enware and Andritz.

In the past 12 months, Prophit Systems has been innovating its practices and can now deliver world-class solutions remotely, such as a complete tailored solution in a country they have never visited. "We provide remote training and support for our clients throughout the world and are often engaged to complete in house consulting projects," informs Gray. These and other on-going strategies have earned Prophit Systems recognition from Australia's Trade and Investment Commission as one of the top four most resilient exporters. Gray is proud that Prophit Systems is being recognised for not only its leading supply chain solutions, but also its ability and adaptability to maintain international business relationships. "We are proud to be a privately owned Australian business that is now being recognised as having the best supply chain software and systems in the world," concludes Gray.
