"It seemed like Acumatica was on the rise, growing, and progressive with an open-source type community where we didn't feel like we were going to be put into a bucket or roped in, and that the company would grow with us."

Challenges

As TRA Snow & Sun expanded, its reliance on QuickBooks and Salesforce became a significant handicap. Transferring data manually between systems was slow and error-prone, leading to operational inefficiencies. The lack of real-time inventory insight caused production delays and made it nearly impossible to track orders accurately from start to finish. Paper work orders were physically carried to the production floor, often getting lost or causing confusion.

“We were handwriting work orders on colored pieces of paper and would get severely behind on building orders and adjusting our inventory. At times we were six months behind on inventory.” – Ben Anderson, COO, TRA Snow & Sun

ERP Solution

After evaluating several ERP options, TRA Snow & Sun chose Acumatica Manufacturing. The decision was driven by Acumatica’s user-friendly interface, flexibility, open API, and unlimited user pricing model, which aligned with the company’s growth plans. The implementation unified all business processes onto a single platform, replacing the fragmented system of QuickBooks and Salesforce. This provided a single source of truth for the entire operation, from sales and quoting to production and invoicing.

“It seemed like Acumatica was on the rise, growing, and progressive with an open-source type community where we didn’t feel like we were going to be put into a bucket or roped in, and that the company would grow with us.” – Jacob Anderson, CFO, TRA Snow & Sun

Outcome

Outcome

Since implementing Acumatica, TRA Snow & Sun has tripled its revenue and dramatically improved operational efficiency. The company reduced its lead times for complex orders from over three weeks to just 10 days. Real-time inventory data and automated workflows have eliminated production bottlenecks and improved planning. The finance team is now more efficient, managing three times the revenue with one less full-time employee. With a scalable and modern ERP system, TRA Snow & Sun is positioned for continued growth without a significant increase in overhead.

“As we grow, it is enormously helpful that we have largely fixed costs associated with Acumatica, and there’s not going to be a significant financial burden as we add more employees.” – Jacob Anderson, CFO, TRA Snow and Sun
