Iowa-based Mid-States Comapanies grew organically for two decades using QuickBooks, JobBOSS, and spreadsheets to run the company, which had grown into 12 different entities. Trying to run manufacturing on JobBOSS, a scheduling program, became unwieldy and inefficient. Executives had problems tracking bids residing on employee computers, responding to opportunities in a timely fashion, and understanding where existing projects stood.

Mid-States streamlined operations, gained real-time data visibility, and automated processes, saving time and reducing bottlenecks. It improved project tracking, gained consolidated financials, and automated workflows. Acumatica’s flexibility allowed Mid-States to quickly and seamlessly integrate new acquisitions, scale efficiently and utilize manufacturing functionality including inventory management. Low-code tools helped Mid-States create an automated daily job status report for project managers, and custom forms the field services team accesses from job sites.
