Meet the Future of Construction Management: Lumber's Complete Showcase at Acumatica Summit 2025

Construction owners face a pivotal challenge in 2025: managing an increasingly complex workforce while staying ahead of ever-changing compliance requirements. In an industry where manual processes can lead to costly errors and compliance risks, digital transformation has become the cornerstone of sustainable growth. At Acumatica Summit 2025, Lumber will unveil its next-generation construction management solutions at Booth #701. These solutions are already helping companies reduce payroll errors by 95% and processing time by 75%.

Building upon the groundbreaking innovations introduced at Acumatica Summit 2024, this year's showcase demonstrates how construction businesses can revolutionize their operations through intelligent automation and seamless integration. From automated compliance management to real-time workforce tracking, Lumber's comprehensive suite of solutions addresses the most pressing challenges facing construction businesses today.

Lumber's revolutionary Payroll solution is one of the standout features at this year's Acumatica Conference. Understanding the complex nature of construction payroll, our platform has been engineered to reduce manual errors by an impressive 95%. This remarkable achievement comes through intelligent automation that handles multiple pay rates, union requirements, certified payroll, and complex wage determinations with precision and ease.

Construction companies using Lumber's Payroll solution have reported significant time savings and improved accuracy in their payroll processing. The system automatically calculates prevailing wages, handles multiple jurisdictions, and assures accurate tax calculations across states and localities. This level of automation saves time and provides peace of mind to construction owners who need to maintain accurate payroll records for compliance purposes.

Time Tracking That Works as Hard as Your Team

Time tracking in construction has always been challenging, with workers spread across multiple job sites and varying work conditions. Lumber's Time Tracking solution, seamlessly integrated with the Acumatica platform, transforms this traditionally cumbersome process into a streamlined operation. The system captures real-time labor data, automatically applying the correct pay rates and work rules while ensuring accuracy in project cost allocation.

Our mobile-first approach means workers can clock in and out directly from job sites, with GPS verification ensuring accuracy. Project managers gain immediate visibility into labor costs and project progress, while payroll teams receive properly coded and approved time data without manual intervention. This integration eliminates double data entry and provides real-time insights into labor costs and productivity.

Smart Scheduling for Optimal Resource Allocation

In the complex world of construction project management, efficient scheduling can mean the difference between project success and costly delays. Lumber's Scheduling solution brings intelligence to workforce management, helping construction companies optimize their most valuable resource—their people. The system considers factors such as worker qualifications, availability, project requirements, and compliance needs to suggest optimal scheduling solutions.

The scheduling module includes features like conflict detection, automated notifications for schedule changes, and real-time updates that keep everyone informed. Project managers can easily adjust schedules on the fly, while workers receive immediate notifications about their assignments through their mobile devices.

Streamlined Hiring and Benefits Management

Finding and retaining skilled workers remains one of the construction industry's biggest challenges. Lumber's Hiring and Benefits Management solution streamlines the entire employee lifecycle, from recruitment to retirement. The platform simplifies onboarding, manages certifications and training requirements, and ensures smooth benefits administration.

Visitors to Lumber's booth at Acumatica Summit 2025 will see firsthand how the system manages complex benefits packages, tracks certification renewals, and maintains comprehensive employee records. The solution's integration with popular job boards and applicant tracking systems makes finding and hiring qualified workers easier while maintaining compliance with employment regulations.

Compliance on Auto-Pilot: Your Digital Safety Net

One of the most valuable features being showcased at this year's Acumatica Conference is Lumber's Compliance Management system which works in the background. This innovative solution automates compliance, helping construction owners stay ahead of ever-changing regulations without constant manual oversight.

The system automatically:

• Monitors and tracks compliance requirements across different jurisdictions
• Automatically updates prevailing wages, minimum wages, mandatory breaks, overtime, and tax-related compliance regulations.
• Alerts managers to upcoming certification renewals and compliance deadlines
• Maintains detailed audit trails for all compliance-related activities
• Generates required reports for various regulatory bodies
• Ensures proper documentation is maintained for every project

This automated approach to compliance significantly reduces the risk of violations while saving valuable administrative time. Construction owners can rest assured that their operations meet all regulatory requirements, from OSHA standards to local building codes.

Seamless Integration with Acumatica

What sets Lumber apart at Acumatica Summit 2025 is our deep integration with the Acumatica platform. Lumber has a bi-directional Acumatica that provides employee, branch, department, cost code, and project information to Lumber, which gets processed in the platform, providing Payroll information and journal entries to Acumatica.

This integration ensures that construction companies can maintain a single source of truth for all their business operations. From financial data to project management, everything flows seamlessly between systems, eliminating data silos and reducing the potential for errors.
