Epicor, a global leader of industry-specific enterprise software to promote business growth, will discuss the future of the building supply market and how businesses can take advantage of data-driven insights and people-centric technologies to gain a competitive edge during next week’s Epicor Insights for Building Supply customer conference, taking place November 14-16, 2022 at The Westin Kierland Resort & Spa in Scottsdale, Ariz.

During the annual event, customers, partners, developers, and industry influencers will come together to focus on how building supply businesses are managing economic pressures, addressing labor challenges, and driving greater visibility across their supply chains. They’ll also learn about the latest updates to the Epicor Industry ERP Cloud portfolio – including Epicor BisTrack, Epicor LumberTrack, and Epicor Warehouse Management System (WMS) – to help building supply companies optimize operations and grow their businesses.

In fact, according to the IDC White Paper, sponsored by Epicor, “The Business Value of Epicor Software for Building Supply Companies” (doc #US48832422, March 2022), building supply companies that use Epicor technologies have realized benefits worth an annual average of $2.7 million per organization through enhanced enterprise visibility, stronger inventory management, improved financial management, and ultimately higher revenues and margins.
