ÜBER DIESE EPISODE
In this episode of FinFactor, Blaine Bertsch sits down with Jim Harris of Western Computer to uncover the biggest operational and financial challenges facing manufacturers and importers today—especially those still relying on outdated ERPs and massive, error-prone spreadsheets.
Jim breaks down why inaccurate COGS, tariff miscalculations, batch-level blind spots, and legacy processes quietly destroy margins, and how a properly implemented ERP can completely transform visibility and control. They also dive into change management, the realities of ERP timelines, why Excel is the “shared enemy” of scalable finance teams, and how AI is rapidly reinventing supply chain and financial operations. If your business is feeling the pressure of volatility, rising costs, or outdated systems, this is your roadmap to modernization.
