In a recent live webinar, the Loop ERP team walked recyclers through a practical way to connect operations and finance in a single system. The session, led by Ryan McQuillan, Head of Business Development, and Jason Riley, Product Director, showed how Loop ERP helps scrap and recycling companies simplify workflows, gain visibility, and eliminate manual processes.
If your current software requires endless workarounds, multiple logins, or constant manual reconciliations, this webinar was made for you. Here’s a full summary of what was covered.
Loop ERP was created by CEBA Solutions, a certified NetSuite Solution Provider. After implementing ERPs for years across recycling and aggregate companies, CEBA’s team saw a recurring issue: generic systems didn’t fit.
Every implementation required costly customizations, and niche solutions lacked financial depth. The result was wasted time, fragmented data, and frustration.
So CEBA decided to fix it. The team productized its industry knowledge and built Loop ERP—a true all-in-one ERP solution for recyclers, processors, and brokers, natively inside NetSuite.
Product Director Jason Riley started his career at a scrap yard. From scale operations to software design, he understands how real yards run and how disconnected tools slow them down. That perspective shaped Loop ERP’s design: a scrap recycling ERP that actually fits the workflow of recyclers.
Recycling businesses run complex operations: ticketing, inventory, pricing, dispatch, and accounting all moving at once. Loop ERP brings it all together.
Built on Oracle NetSuite, it connects every function from the scale house to the general ledger, eliminating duplicate entries, spreadsheets, and sync errors.
The result is a single source of truth with real-time financial visibility and operational control.
Loop ERP is built for businesses that move material in a reverse logistics process: taking something apart, regrading, or repurposing it. That includes scrap recyclers, processors, brokers, and aggregate producers.
Traditional ERPs weren’t made for this kind of workflow. Loop ERP fills that gap, giving operators everything they need to manage materials, track costs, and close the loop between operations and finance.
By building on NetSuite, Loop ERP inherits world-class financial infrastructure:
Loop ERP adds the functionality recyclers need, including:
Everything operates inside one database. No integrations. No sync delays. Just one ERP built for recyclers.
When users log in, they land on a real-time dashboard customized to their role. A CFO might see income statements and financial KPIs. A yard manager sees dispatch calendars, open tickets, and production activity.
Loop ERP uses segregation of duties, so users only see what matters to them. It’s simple, secure, and clear.
Every number on the dashboard is live and drillable. Financial reports can be filtered by class (like ferrous vs. non-ferrous), subsidiary, or location.
The Reminders Portlet shows what needs attention: quotes to approve, invoices to review, and overdue payments. Users can set it up in seconds and know exactly what to focus on each day.
Loop ERP’s purchase orders (POs) do more than record transactions. Each PO acts as an anchor record, connecting to all related processes: receiving, billing, payments, and reporting.
Approvals and audit trails are built in, keeping spending controlled and transparent.
Inbound dispatch can be scheduled visually through a calendar interface. Drag and drop to assign loads by date, time, and driver. Once the truck arrives, the dispatch automatically converts into an inbound ticket; no manual entry required.
Inbound tickets serve as the transaction hub linking all related data. Each record includes:
Users can also record quality checks, flag quarantined loads, and store material analysis data from XRF analyzers—all directly inside the system.
Loop ERP automatically updates inventory and GL entries in real time as materials move through the yard. Each item is assigned a lot or serial number, giving recyclers precise traceability from intake to sale.
No more reconciling spreadsheets or waiting for end-of-day reports. Every transaction updates the books instantly.
The Regrade Feature lets recyclers disassemble, process, or refine materials with full cost tracking. For example, a battery can be broken down into multiple outputs—steel casing, copper, plastics, lithium, and more.
Loop ERP automatically assigns new lot numbers, costs, and locations for each output item. Waste items can be tagged at zero value, ensuring that remaining costs are distributed correctly across sellable goods.
If input and output quantities don’t match, the system flags the discrepancy before approval. That level of control protects inventory accuracy and financial integrity—something generic ERPs can’t handle out of the box.
Once processed materials are ready to sell, Loop ERP manages the reverse of the purchase process:
Each step is linked, transparent, and immediate.
Loop ERP supports pro forma invoices (for pending weights or prices) and group invoices (for multiple loads to one customer). Once approved, invoices can send automatically or be printed with your branding—whatever fits your workflow.
Not everyone in a yard needs access to the full ERP. Many just need to capture scale tickets, weights, or images quickly. The Loop ERP Yard App simplifies that.
Designed for tablets, the app gives operators a clean, touch-friendly interface to log inbound tickets, upload photos, and record data in seconds.
Every transaction syncs to NetSuite in real time. No batch uploads. No delay between the yard and the back office.
Because it’s cloud-based, Loop ERP works anywhere. Whether you’re in the office, at a yard, or across multiple sites, everyone works from the same live data.
This combination of enterprise power and yard-level usability makes Loop ERP the most user-friendly scrap recycling ERP available today.
Loop ERP’s mission is simple: reclaim time, reduce effort, and eliminate waste in business processes.
Every automated transaction, linked record, and real-time dashboard adds up. A few minutes saved per transaction turns into hours saved each day and a measurable ROI each quarter.
“Circular economy is about reclaiming value from what others call waste. We’re doing the same thing for your business, eliminating wasted time and manual work by bringing it all together in one system.”
— Ryan McQuillan, Head of Business Development
From the scale house to the general ledger, Loop ERP keeps your operation connected, compliant, and in control.
Loop ERP was built because recyclers deserved better. Too many have been forced to choose between expensive enterprise systems or limited niche software.
With Loop ERP, there’s finally a scrap recycling ERP that does both—powerful enough to scale, simple enough to use.
“Speed at the scale is everything. You want trucks in and out fast, and you need the data captured right. That’s what we’ve built the mobile app to do: fast, accurate, and connected.”
— Jason Riley, Product Director
