Case Study: Yeager Airport achieves 60% improvement in finance efficiency with Sage Intacct

Yeager Airport charts a path towards greater visibility with Sage Intacct

Yeager Airport, operated by the Central West Virginia Regional Airport Authority and the largest commercial airport in West Virginia, faced slow, manual financial processes using two on‑premises systems (Abila MIP and Sage 100). Monthly journal entries, paper purchase orders, and fragmented inventory tracking made reconciliations, reporting, and grant tracking time-consuming and limited visibility across departments, so the new finance team sought a cloud-based solution.

They implemented Sage Intacct to unify accounting and inventory, eliminate paper-based workflows, and provide remote access. The change boosted overall finance efficiency by 60%, reduced bank reconciliations and report preparation by 80%, sped financial close and audits by 50%, increased time spent on analysis by up to 75%, improved grant and inventory visibility, and cut key reports from about a week to under three hours.
