Case Study: Bluefin Distribution achieves scalable growth and real-time operational visibility with Acumatica

Bluefin Collectibles Leverages Acumatica During Industry Boom

Bluefin Collectibles, a Bandai Namco group distributor of licensed hobby and toy collectibles, experienced rapid growth from large industry events and outpaced its QuickBooks Enterprise system. The company needed an affordable, flexible ERP with robust CRM and easy integration to warehouse automation, EDI and tax engines—plus unlimited user access and mobile capabilities—to manage a large product catalog, pre-orders and complex distribution workflows.

Bluefin implemented Acumatica with partner Collins Computing, initially hosted on-premise, gaining real-time dashboards, self-service reporting and deeper financial, warehouse and distribution traceability. The solution cut IT/reporting hours, improved customer communication and order tracking (including EDI, Avalara and RFID/blockchain-enabled verification), and gave the team mobile access and scalability to support continued growth without per-seat licensing costs.
