Case Study: Fidelux Lighting achieves streamlined inventory and order management, automated commissions, and affordable distributor access with Acumatica

Fidelux Lighting Pivots to a New Business Model Leveraging Acumatica

Fidelux Lighting, a Connecticut-based LED lighting manufacturer spun out of PRIME AE’s UIC Energy, switched from direct sales to a distributor-based model and added a commission structure. The company of about 15 employees found QuickBooks unable to handle complex inventory, assembly/kitting, parts substitutions, commission tracking, or integrations, forcing manual spreadsheets, duplicate data entry, and slow financial reporting.

Fidelux implemented Acumatica (financials, CRM, advanced inventory and order management) in under two months, giving affordable cloud access to 30+ distributors and automating commission payments. The result: improved inventory and kit-cost accuracy, elimination of manual duplicate entry, a one-person order process, a 7-hour monthly time savings on commissions, lower licensing costs, and a scalable platform for growth into new markets.
