Pyrotechnic and explosive device manufacturer to leverage Rootstock to enhance material resource planning, optimize inventory management, and support decision-making

San Ramon, CA (January 28, 2025) - Rootstock Software, a leader in the Manufacturing ERP space, today announced that Applied Energy Technology Corp (AETC), a leading manufacturer of small explosive devices used in aerospace and defense, has selected Rootstock ERP to modernize its manufacturing operations and support its growth strategy. AETC will deploy Rootstock ERP to boost efficiency, improve material resource planning (MRP), and enhance data-driven decision-making capabilities.


AETC, headquartered in Burton, Texas (www.aesquibs.com), has over 45 years of experience specializing in the design and manufacturing of energetics, including explosive cartridges and other critical safety components. AETC is committed to maintaining exceptional product reliability while scaling its operations and ensuring that the AETC Executive Team has visibility into the health of the business—at their fingertips and via mobile devices.

"We needed an ERP solution that could handle the complexity of modern manufacturing processes," said Matt Salamone, Chief Operating Officer of AETC (https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt-salamone-59017927/). "When we first initiated our digital transformation journey, our operations were still running on old-school systems, with drawings being faxed back and forth. Since then, our company has experienced significant growth, and it was time to implement a modern ERP that could support our increased capacity and project complexity."

Rick Berger, CEO of Rootstock Software, expressed his excitement about working with AETC. "We're thrilled to support Applied Energy Technology Corp as they embark on this digital transformation journey. AETC's selection of Rootstock reflects the growing demand for agile, scalable ERP solutions that deliver real-time insights and efficiency.
