Manufacturing: Architectural Products Doors, Windows, Cabinets, Staircases, and Prefabricated Buildings Industry Digest

Written by Rob Kirkey | March 13 2025

Architectural products manufacturers are underserved by today’s ERP business applications. For example, few ERP systems provide native applications to configure dimensional products such as doors, windows, cabinets, staircases, millwork or prefabricated buildings. As a result, architectural product manufacturers are forced to customize inferior product configurators.

Alternatively, they must invest in costly custom integration projects to connect expensive best-of-breed configurators that are difficult to maintain and support.

Acumatica Manufacturing Edition is one of the few modern cloud-based ERP applications on the market with a robust, out-of-the-box product configurator.

Further, Acumatica supports matrix inventory items with a native connector for Arena’s product lifecycle management application to harmonize bills of material between engineering and production applications. Quickly create custom architectural products with Manufacturing Estimates based on prior estimates or existing bill of materials and routings. Native service management empowers remote workers with access to information anytime, anywhere, on any device.
