Case Study: Morris Build-All Centre achieves major time savings and easier operations with ECi Spruce

Spruce Brings Ease of Use And Big Time Savings

Morris Build-All Centre, a lumber, hardware, construction, and general contracting business in Morris, Manitoba, was frustrated with its outdated software and poor support. After years of fighting a system that was hard to use and costly to maintain, the company began searching for a better fit and selected ECi Spruce, the LBM-focused software platform from ECi Software Solutions.

ECi Spruce was implemented with a fresh start, with most data entered manually to ensure accuracy. The new system made inventory setup, general ledger formatting, month-end reporting, and accounts payable far easier, while also improving pricing control and customer service. Measurable results included saving about $300 per month in postage, reducing paper use from as much as six cartons per month to about eight cartons per year, and cutting accounts payable processing from two days to about two hours.
