Case Study: TimberTown Building Centre achieves thousands in monthly cost savings and productivity gains with ECi Software Solutions' Spruce LBM software

Spruce Lumberyard and Building Material Software Brings Costs Savings and Productivity Gains

TimberTown Building Centre, a Calgary-based lumber and building materials retailer, was held back by its legacy Epicor Dimensions system—which ran in batch mode, forced duplicate data entry, made price changes and purchasing labor‑intensive, and obscured real‑time visibility across five locations. To fix these issues, TimberTown chose Spruce LBM software from ECI Software Solutions.

ECI Software Solutions delivered a cloud‑based Spruce implementation with strong training and support, and staff were productive within a week. The solution enabled emailed invoices and statements—saving TimberTown thousands of dollars per month in postage and stationery—removed the need to maintain servers, improved inventory management and gross margin visibility, and produced measurable time and cost savings across the business.
