Case Study: Midwest Lumber & Supply achieves growth, efficiency, and profitability with ECi Spruce

Spruce Software Keeps Company Strong and Profitable as It Grows

Midwest Lumber & Supply, a Butler, Missouri-based lumber and hardware business, needed a software platform that could keep up with rapid growth, added locations, and new operations like a truss plant and door shop. As sales climbed and the business became more complex, the company wanted a system that could support expansion without creating more manual work or paperwork.

ECi Spruce provided the Spruce software platform, giving Midwest Lumber & Supply automation, document management, and real-time business visibility across all locations. The result was a more efficient operation with end-of-day and end-of-month processes reduced from hours to a few keystrokes, better control of inventory and margins, and more informed decision-making; since going live, the company has grown sales by more than 40% and expanded from two to four locations.
