Case Study: S&S Activewear achieves cost savings and 2-hour daily efficiency gains with Acumatica

Clothing retailer funds ERP software from cost savings

S&S Activewear, a U.S. wholesale distributor of imprintable apparel with 350 employees across Chicago and Los Angeles, needed to replace an aging Telnet green-screen system with a modern .NET ERP that offered strong Accounts Payable/General Ledger capabilities and easy integration with its internally developed inventory management. The company wanted a browser-based solution with robust API functionality so it could preserve and extend its custom workflows without costly per-user licensing.

S&S Activewear deployed Acumatica’s Financial Management Suite and Intercompany Accounting, attracted by its API, import tools, flexible delivery, and affordable pricing. The move saved about two man-hours per day, allowed AP work to be centralized in Chicago (eliminating one position), and delivered cost savings that more than paid for the system, while enabling easier integration, multi-device access, and rapid product improvements based on their feedback.
