Sage lays firm foundations for Orion Companies’ continued growth

Orion Companies - United States

Wyoming-based construction group speeds up reconciliations and makes light work of multi entity reporting thanks to Sage Intacct

Rapid expansion brings scalability challenges

Expanding from just one small office to five offices regionally, and with over 13 different divisions and entities, Orion Companies was finding it exponentially more difficult to scale using its existing ERP solution. The construction contractor knew it needed a cloud-based solution capable of handling multi entities, that also had a construction and real estate focus.

Sage is already known as the leader in construction software, but on top of that, the multi entity consolidation is extremely helpful for us.

Faster reconciliations

Since switching to Sage Intacct, Orion Companies has vastly sped up its bank reconciliation process. Previously it would take 10 days to reconcile all of the group’s 40 bank accounts, whereas now the construction firm is able to reconcile its accounts in real time on a daily basis as the accounts are all linked automatically via bank feeds directly to Sage Intacct.

We have 1,000s of transactions a day and with Sage Intacct we can actually have a real time daily cash understanding.

Best in class software great for growth and hiring

As an added bonus, Thomas believes upgrading to Sage Intacct has also helped with hiring top talent as prospective employees are impressed that Orion Companies is using the “best in class, cutting edge software”. He says it also helps with employees career development, and has set the business up for further growth opportunities.

We're now excited for the next couple of years of growth whereas with our old system, literally, the company would not be able to grow.
