Challenges

AFF Group, an industry leader in aftermarket textiles for the automotive, marine, retail and hospitality industries, ran on an outdated, disconnected version of Sage for accounting, customer service, billing, and order entry. The company relied on manual, paper-based workflows and lacked formal processes. Inventory was estimated annually, and production operated on a chaotic build-to-order basis. Employees struggled with disorganized workflows and relied on spreadsheets to track items.

“Before Acumatica, there was an awful lot of what I call scrambling. Just grabbing things off the shelf and keep going.”

Mark Smith, Chief Financial Officer

AFF Group

ERP Solution

AFF Group chose Acumatica for its cloud-based platform, flexible pricing structure, and mobility features, which allowed inventory access via smartphones. The open API and scalability aligned with executives’ growth goals. Acumatica’s unlimited user pricing made the platform affordable, and its flexible cloud platform allows the company to easily connect third-party applications.

“We wanted something in the cloud and knew it would cost too much to get Sage to the point where it needed to be.”

Mark Smith, Chief Financial Officer

Outcome

With Acumatica, AFF Group gained real-time access to accurate data, streamlined operations, and reduced paper usage. They implemented efficient inventory management, improved production timelines, and gained on-time deliveries. Material Requirements Planning (MRP) transformed its production process, while barcode systems improved accuracy. AFF Group doubled production without increasing staff, which resulted in a significant cost savings. The company improved customer service, and streamlined workflows.

“For us, the power of the Acumatica system is in the WMS and shop floor data collection, the inventory management, and the ability to deliver to a customer and to get things right,”

Ben Leinster, Chief Executive Officer
