Case Study: Pool Source LLC achieves profitability and optimizes inventory with Acumatica Cloud ERP

Wholesale distributor optimizes inventory using Acumatica Cloud ERP

Pool Source LLC, a Nashville-based distributor of swimming pool supplies, needed an ERP to manage inventory, customer-specific pricing, warehouse and delivery sales processes, sales/returns tracking, receivables and custom reporting—without buying hardware or hiring IT staff. Their initial point-of-sale system couldn’t handle complex pricing or link purchase orders to sales, and they required a multi-user, easy-to-manage solution that supported both on-site cash sales and deliveries to job sites.

Acumatica Cloud ERP (deployed by Acumatica and partner i.t.works on AWS) provided a SaaS solution with unlimited users, local support and vertical-specific customizations—two-word inventory search, advanced pricing by customer, import of thousands of items, and two tailored sales workflows. The result: faster implementation, improved inventory control, maximized profitability (profitable in year one), support for varied sales/delivery models, real-time access to data, and cloud-based reliability without ongoing hardware or IT overhead.
