    "Acumatica's ability to push and pull data has been phenomenal." Partnering with Premier Tech Partners, LVT connected its disconnected financial and manufacturing systems into one unified platform, slashed financial close time from 15 days to just 5, and scaled from 75 to over 230 employees — all without hiring additional accounting staff.

    "We can now better track a product as it goes through the entire process. Building formulas and handling our bills of materials is a lot better than doing it with Excel. Now we do it once and it's right." With Premier Tech Partners guiding the implementation, Trace Minerals grew revenue 6-fold, saw sales surge 50% in 2023, and replaced paper-based quality workflows with an integrated system spanning manufacturing, testing, and compliance.
