The History
With over 300 employees, FireTron’s expertise includes sales, design, installation, service, and inspection of a wide range of life safety systems to the Houston, Austin, College Station, and Corpus Christi markets.
Combining unparalleled experience and distributor partnerships with industry leaders such as NOTIFIER Fire & Life Safety and RAULAND Education, the experts at FireTron are prepared to meet each of their customers’ needs. For over 30 years, FireTron stands committed to offering the highest level of honesty, quality, and customer satisfaction!
FireTron’s mission is to become the most trusted and reliable safety experts in the markets we serve.
The Challenge
FireTron uses Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate for their accounting system of record, but the system lacked key reporting functionalities.
The company needed improved insight into the status of projects including profitability and current performance to plan. Equally as important, FireTron needed a system to provide quick, mobile access to information for both the accounting and project management teams to speed up decision making.
Additionally, FireTron wanted to produce reports faster, eliminate time spent creating spreadsheets, and increase overall information quality.
Lastly, the company desired a solution to provide visibility for sales members to access their personal sales numbers, commissions, work orders, and billing invoices — without seeing other employees’ data.
We didn’t even know we had problems until we had the access to the reporting Anterra provides.
The Solution
Since using Anterra, FireTron’s construction and finance teams possess a clear understanding of project status, work in progress, project cost, Forecast Cost at Complete, and project margin.
Anterra’s cloud-based solution was cost-effective and easy for FireTron to deploy. FireTron found it to be the best technology stack for financial reporting without the expense of purchasing additional hardware, server software licenses, or IT administration.
Working with Anterra is wonderful. The setup process is very simple and fast. Anterra itself is a very accommodating company. We have not had any requests denied when we have asked them for new reporting
