Ascot Doors
Planning, Picking, Producing
Perfectly Painless.
Ascot Doors is a UK-based manufacturer specialising in industrial and commercial doors. With a reputation for quality, reliability, and national service coverage, Ascot Doors provides solutions to a wide range of clients from retail giants to logistics firms and public institutions.
As Ascot Doors grew, managing production schedules, stock levels, and dispatch operations using spreadsheets paper, and legacy systems became increasingly inefficient. The team faced challenges including:
- Fragmented data across multiple sources
- Manual input errors
- Limited visibility into production bottlenecks
- Difficulty tracking job progress and forward planning
Accessible and easy to use, the new application replaces offline processes and removes outdated, manual spreadsheets to form a single source of their DataTruth™.
"Ascot got a system far better than we initially envisaged. We will only ever use Targeted for our future requirements."
