Case Study: LiveView Technologies achieves unified finance and manufacturing, faster closes, and scalable growth with Acumatica

Explosive Growth at Mobile Security Manufacturer Requires Modern Cloud ERP

LiveView Technologies, an Iowa-based maker of self-contained, solar-powered mobile security and IoT monitoring trailers, outgrew its legacy QuickBooks system after sales surged about 300% in 2020. The unsupported accounting software was disconnected from its E2 manufacturing system, causing inventory inaccuracies, slow period closes and manual AP/AR processes that couldn’t scale with rapid headcount and revenue growth.

LVT implemented Acumatica Cloud ERP (with Premier Computing), tying financials to manufacturing and third-party tools via open APIs. The result was a single, cloud-based platform with real-time visibility, much-improved inventory accuracy, paperless purchasing/payables, 50% faster AP/AR processing, and period closes cut from 15 days to five — all while avoiding new accounting hires and enabling remote work during the pandemic.
