Case Study: Lone Star Communications achieves scalable growth and streamlined billing with Solutions360

Lone Star Communications Manages Growth with Solutions360

Lone Star Communications, a Texas life-safety systems integrator that grew through acquisitions (Halco in 2016 and ArCom in 2018) and projected revenues rising from $26.7M (2016) toward $50M (2019), faced a core challenge: a home‑grown, non‑scalable system that couldn’t be rolled out to new offices or support shifting business models. To standardize processes, enable recurring SaaS-style billing and support rapid geographic expansion, Lone Star selected Solutions360 and its Q360 platform.

Solutions360 implemented Q360 as an end‑to‑end solution, automating daily service invoicing, recurring and contract billing, and providing real‑time dashboards and KPIs. The result: faster, more accurate billing; month‑end closes for individual offices completed within days and consolidated financials produced within hours; easier recurring‑revenue management; and predictable 90‑day rollouts to new offices—delivering the operational visibility and scalability Lone Star needed to grow.
