Case Study: Barclay & Mathieson achieves business growth and operational efficiency with Metalogic's iMetal

Commitment To Success With Imetal Aids Business Growth For B&M

Barclay & Mathieson (B&M) is one of the UK’s largest independent steel stockholding and service-centre businesses, operating 14 sites and serving clients from multinational construction firms to DIY customers. After de‑merging from a global parent in 2016, the business faced the urgent challenge of replacing its communications, network and IT systems from scratch — and had to be fully operational within a 3–6 month window while maintaining day‑to‑day service.

B&M selected Metalogic’s iMetal after a sector-wide review; a focused rollout plan, remote planning sessions and intensive on‑site training enabled rapid deployment across 14 sites and 120+ users. iMetal went live on time and budget and immediately improved CRM, transport planning, stock traceability and automated documentation retrieval, sped up sales quoting and order processing, and delivered the control and scalability the newly independent business needed to continue growing.
