Challenges

LiveView Technologies makes fully self-contained and self-powered mobile security units for large retailers and others. It ran on QuickBooks and E2, a separate disconnected manufacturing system, which led to a lot of manual work transferring data. The legacy accounting system was not integrated with the sales order process, and the company lacked manufacturing planning and scheduling functionality. In addition, inventory was never correct.

“Before Acumatica, you could literally watch inventory change when no one was in the system. Everyone had lost faith in the financial system in use at the time.”

Andrew Gale, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer

ERP Solution

LiveView Technologies chose Acumatica Manufacturing for its modern, cloud-based platform, open API, and comprehensive manufacturing features. The unique user licensing model eliminated concerns about user limitations as the company grew from 75 to over 200 employees. Acumatica’s ability to seamlessly connect with third-party applications allowed them to add Velixo and Alavara.

“Acumatica’s licensing model was an icing-on-the-cake factor. I don’t have to think about who to give access to, or whether it would be worth an extra subscription like other ERP companies charge.”

Andrew Gale, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer

Outcome

With Acumatica, LiveView Technologies gained a single, end-to-end business platform including financials, manufacturing, planning, shipping and invoicing that improved inventory accuracy and operational efficiency. Accounts payable and receivable processes became 50% faster, while financial closings now take just five days. The cloud-based platform enabled remote work during the pandemic without disruptions. Additionally, third-party integrations streamlined tax management and reporting, saving significant time and resources.

“Everything we do is looked at through a lens of how we can scale, and Acumatica has easily demonstrated its ability to scale.”
