Challenges

Premier 1 Supplies provides agricultural products throughout the US. They operated on an outdated Sage MAS 50 ERP system, which was non-compliant with PCI standards and lacked support. It caused inefficiencies, limited functionality, and frustrated employees. Payment software upgrades were impossible, and they struggled with data access and workflow integration. These issues, coupled with high costs for maintaining the old system, prompted the search for a modern ERP.

“No one knew how to upgrade us with our old system.”

ERP Solution

Premier 1 Supplies chose Acumatica for its comprehensive functionality, open API framework, and alignment with its business needs. Unlike other solutions, Acumatica offered a robust, out-of-the-box ERP system that minimized the need for heavy customization. Its modern, cloud-based platform provided the flexibility and scalability required for future growth. The decision was also influenced by Acumatica’s strong reputation, collaborative community, and commitment to continuous product development.

“We were closer aligned with Acumatica and felt its open APIs would allow me to make customizations myself.”

Outcome

With Acumatica, Premier 1 Supplies gained real-time data visibility, streamlined workflows, and improved customer service efficiency. The open platform allowed the company to avoid expensive customizations and allowed in-house development of reports and workflows. Integration with its website provided accurate inventory updates. The modern cloud-based platform reduced technology expenses, supported sophisticated marketing efforts, and positioned the company for rapid growth.

“Being able to access data and have the various departments working together in one system with Acumatica is a real benefit.”
