Challenges

Groupe SGM’s rapid expansion, fueled by acquisitions, created challenges with siloed systems and manual, paper-based workflows. Project data and financial information were dispersed across spreadsheets and outdated tools, limiting visibility and responsiveness. Leadership recognized that without a cohesive, cloud-based ERP, the lack of transparency and efficiency would hold back future growth.

“As the company grew bigger, we wanted to have better control, better results, and become more efficient. We were really limited in what we could achieve.”— Mathieu Cotton, Chief Financial Officer, Groupe SGM

After careful review of leading ERP options, Groupe SGM chose Acumatica Construction Edition for its integrated, cloud-based architecture and ability to support 350 employees across diverse roles. Acumatica brought together manufacturing, field service, project management, and finance modules, all working in real time. By partnering with Les Services SiPD, Groupe SGM ensured a smooth rollout, engaging employees through collaborative change management and empowering users to make the most of their new, adaptable platform.

“Our main challenge was finding a solution that would include manufacturing, project accounting, and field service. Acumatica offered truly integrated modules that work together and adapt to how we want to operate.”— Alexis Veronneau, VP of Corporate Services, Groupe SGM

These improvements have set the company firmly on track toward its growth ambitions, while supporting a collaborative, empowered workforce.
