The Growing Pains of Distribution 

For many distribution companies, growth doesn’t just reveal operational cracks, it widens them. You may recognize the signs: departments relying on their own spreadsheets, customer orders taking too long to process, and team members constantly re-entering the same data into multiple systems. These aren’t just minor inefficiencies but early warnings that your systems aren’t keeping up. 

Disconnected systems create delays, duplicate work, and inconsistent data. Your team spends more time chasing information than acting on it. As demands increase, so do the risks. 

 

What Disconnection Really Costs 

The impact of fragmented systems goes beyond inconvenience. When your ERP, CRM, and warehouse management tools aren’t integrated, your team is forced into reactive mode. 

Manual data entry becomes standard. Sales reps can’t access up-to-date inventory. Customer service is slowed by a lack of visibility into order status. And executives are often making critical decisions with outdated or incomplete data. 

These issues slow you down. They affect your bottom line. And worst of all, they limit your ability to deliver the fast, responsive service that today’s customers expect. 

 

Why Integration Is a Game Changer 

With an integrated system, the experience is completely different. Information flows seamlessly across departments. When a sales order is placed, it automatically updates inventory, triggers fulfillment, and syncs with finance. Everyone — from the warehouse floor to the leadership team — works from the same accurate, real-time data. 

Integrated platforms eliminate redundant tasks, reduce the risk of errors, and free your team to focus on higher-value work. You gain operational clarity, faster processes, and the agility to scale. 

This is more than a technology upgrade — it’s a shift in how your business operates. 

 

How Modern Distributors Are Solving It 

At Aktion, we work with distribution companies every day who are ready to move past disconnected systems. Our team helps unify operations with tools built specifically for your industry, including Acumatica, a modern cloud ERP designed to bring your finance, inventory, purchasing, and customer data into a single platform. 

 

With a solution like Acumatica in place, you’re no longer patching together reports or second-guessing data. You’re running a smarter, more connected operation built for growth. 

The construction industry has long been considered one of the last frontiers of digital transformation. Known for its complexity, tight margins, and project-based workflows, the sector faces persistent challenges—cost overruns, labor shortages, and safety concerns, to name a few. But artificial intelligence (AI) is starting to change that. 

Across the industry, forward-thinking construction firms are beginning to adopt AI technologies not just as a tech novelty, but as a practical solution to real-world problems. From predictive analytics to machine learning, AI is redefining how jobsites operate, how projects are planned, and how companies make decisions. 

 Smarter Planning and Forecasting 

One of the most powerful uses of AI in construction is in project planning. Traditional scheduling methods often rely on human intuition and historical data, but AI introduces predictive models that can anticipate delays, recommend more efficient timelines, and even account for external variables like weather or labor availability. This enables project managers to optimize resources before the ground is even broken. 

Enhancing Safety with Real-Time Data 

Jobsite safety is a constant concern in construction. AI-powered systems can analyze video footage from surveillance cameras to detect unsafe behavior—such as workers not wearing PPE or entering restricted zones—and alert supervisors in real time. Some firms are even using wearable devices that feed biometric and environmental data into AI systems to monitor worker fatigue and heat exposure. 

Improving Quality and Reducing Rework 

AI tools can assist with quality control by identifying defects early in the build process. For instance, drone imagery combined with computer vision can compare on-site progress against 3D models or blueprints, flagging discrepancies before they turn into costly rework. These solutions help ensure projects stay on budget and on schedule. 

Automating Routine Workflows 

Back-office operations are also benefiting from this. AI can automate routine administrative tasks like invoice matching, document classification, and timesheet processing—freeing teams to focus on higher-value activities. In a business where efficiency is key, even small-time savings can have a big impact. 

How ERP Platforms Are Enabling AI in Construction 

While AI tools are powerful, their value multiplies when integrated into a construction firm’s core systems. Modern ERP platforms are evolving to support this shift, embedding AI into everyday workflows to enhance decision-making and productivity. 

Acumatica Construction Edition, for example, has begun integrating AI into its cloud ERP platform to support tasks like automated document recognition, intelligent expense matching, and real-time data analysis. These features aren’t just futuristic add-ons—they’re practical tools designed to help construction firms operate more efficiently today. 

As the industry continues to adopt digital solutions, AI is quickly shifting from an emerging trend to a competitive market. Firms that invest early in AI-powered systems and platforms will be better positioned to navigate uncertainty, scale operations, and deliver more predictable project outcomes. 

In the distribution industry, uptime isn’t a luxury; it’s a necessity. From warehouse automation to connected inventory systems, every second counts. But as technology advances, so do the risks, and many distributors are learning the hard way that cyber insurance doesn’t always cover what they think it does.

In our upcoming Cyber Insurance Readiness Webinar, we explore how your answers on cyber insurance applications can directly impact claim approvals, policy premiums, and even your operational continuity. Here’s what every distribution business needs to know.

The Stakes Are High for Distributors

Cyberattacks can cripple warehouse operations, delay shipments, and compromise vendor or customer data. And yet, many distributors unknowingly jeopardize their cyber insurance coverage by misrepresenting their network security posture.

For example, saying “yes” to having backup and recovery procedures in place means more than backing up data once a month. In the Distribution Industry, this should include automated and encrypted backups of key operational systems, such as order processing, inventory management, and ERP platforms, with tested restoration protocols to minimize downtime during ransomware or system failure.

Common Weak Spots in the Distribution Industry

Here are the five most common areas where distributors fall short, yet still check “yes” on insurance forms:

Real-World Impact: One Misstep, Big Consequences

During the webinar, we will share how a distributor reported full MFA coverage but had only deployed it for the finance team. A phishing attack targeting their warehouse management system led to data theft and significant delivery delays. Their claim was denied due to misrepresentation.

One Wrong Answer Could Cost You Coverage – Stay protected and insurable.

Manufacturers are no strangers to tight margins, but in 2025, those margins are under more pressure than ever. Raw material prices remain volatile, energy costs are climbing, and transportation expenses show little sign of stabilizing. Combine these with increased wage expectations and growing customer demand for competitive pricing, and it’s clear: maintaining profitability in this environment requires smarter operations, not just harder work. 

Let’s take a closer look at the root causes of this margin squeeze—and more importantly, how manufacturers can respond. 

 

The Margin Squeeze Is Real 

Rising costs are coming from every direction. Material prices have become increasingly unpredictable, especially for items like metal, plastic, and electronic components. Labor is another growing expense. With skilled workers in short supply, wages are rising as companies compete for talent. On top of that, energy and logistics costs continue to climb, particularly for manufacturers who rely on international suppliers or complex distribution networks. 

All of this puts pressure on margins—and for many manufacturers, it’s forcing tough decisions about pricing, production, and profitability. 

 

Why Visibility Matters More Than Ever 

One of the biggest challenges manufacturers face is a lack of real-time visibility into their operations. Without current data on costs, performance, or profitability, decision-makers are often left relying on outdated reports or gut instinct.  

That’s where modern ERP systems come in. These platforms centralize data from purchasing, production, and finance, giving leaders a real-time view of where money is being made—or lost. With better visibility, manufacturers can act faster, whether it’s adjusting pricing, shifting production, or finding cost-saving opportunities across the business. 

 

Running Lean with Smart Technology 

Reducing costs doesn’t always mean cutting corners. In many cases, it means reducing inefficiencies that are hiding in plain sight. Tasks like manual order entry, disjointed inventory tracking, and paper-based invoicing add unnecessary labor and delay. 

Modern systems automate these processes, streamlining operations and freeing up time for more strategic work. When production planning is tied directly to demand forecasts and real-time inventory levels, manufacturers can operate with more precision and less waste. 

This kind of automation also minimizes costly errors, like over-ordering materials or underestimating production timelines—common culprits when margins start to slip. 

 

Making Better Decisions with Smarter Cost Tracking 

Profitability isn’t just about increasing revenue. It’s about understanding where you’re losing money and adjusting before it’s too late. With tools that offer job-level or product-level cost tracking, manufacturers can see which products are profitable, where costs are creeping up, and how each customer relationship impacts the bottom line. 

This level of insight empowers better pricing strategies, more effective negotiations with suppliers, and tighter control over margins. 

 

The Path Forward 

The manufacturers who will succeed in 2025 are the ones who can adapt quickly and operate efficiently. While the cost pressures are real, they’re not insurmountable. With the right technology in place, it’s possible to increase visibility, reduce inefficiencies, and protect your margins without sacrificing quality or service. 

 

Acumatica Manufacturing Edition, implemented by a partner who understands the industry, gives manufacturers the tools they need to make smarter, faster, and more cost-effective decisions.

Acumatica uses a resource-based pricing model, which means you’re not charged by the number of users. Whether you have 5 or 500 employees, the cost remains based on usage—not headcount. This makes it a future-ready option for companies planning for growth. 

 

Easier and Less Costly Customization 

With Acumatica, you’re working with widely used technologies. That makes it easier—and more affordable—to customize your ERP or integrate it with other platforms. Dynamics GP/SL, by contrast, relies on proprietary tools that often require specialized developers and increase costs over time. 

 

Fewer Add-ons. More Built-In Value. 

Acumatica comes with a wide range of features out of the box, including modules for payroll, document management, field service, and warehouse management. Many of these capabilities require third-party add-ons in GP/SL, adding cost and complexity. With Acumatica, everything is integrated, streamlined, and accessible from day one. 

 

Planning an ERP Upgrade? 

If your organization is still running on Dynamics GP/SL, it’s time to evaluate whether it’s still supporting your goals—or holding you back. Acumatica offers a modern, scalable, and cost-effective ERP platform that meets the needs of growing businesses across industries. 

 

At Aktion, we help companies make the move from GP/SL to Acumatica with minimal disruption and maximum return. Our experienced team can guide you through the full process—from evaluation to implementation. If you have questions or want to discuss this transition further, feel free to contact Aktion .
