Challenges That Sparked a Netsuite ERP Transformation
Overcoming Systems Fragmentation with Netsuite: AGM's Path to Scalable Logistics Operations
As All Green Management (AGM) scaled its operations across the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest regions, the company’s legacy systems and disconnected workflows began to limit efficiency and growth. Managing over 2,000 monthly work orders and 500–1,000 active projects, AGM faced increasing pressure to streamline its operations and improve visibility across teams. Outdated accounting software, manual work order processing, and inconsistent revenue recognition practices created operational silos, slowed down decision-making, and introduced the risk of human error. To continue delivering reliable service at scale, AGM needed a fully integrated, automated solution, one that could evolve with the business and support long-term growth.
Outdated Systems, Fragmented Workflows: Why All Green Management Chose NetSuite
As All Green Management (AGM) expanded its operations and client base, it became increasingly clear that the company’s existing systems and manual processes were not equipped to support continued growth. The lack of a scalable financial solution hindered the team’s ability to make timely, data-driven decisions. Additionally, work orders and billing processes were spread across multiple platforms, leading to inefficiencies and frequent human errors. Tools like ServiceChannel, used by 30% of AGM’s clients, operated in isolation from the rest of the tech stack, further contributing to data fragmentation.
Streamlining Field Service Operations with Netsuite ERP
Field service management posed another critical challenge. The company relied heavily on subcontractors but lacked automated tools to track their work efficiently. Case creation from emails was handled manually, and data had to be entered across multiple systems, resulting in duplicated efforts, lost time, and increased risk of error. These inefficiencies added up quickly, especially as AGM handled over 2,000 work orders per month.
Inconsistent Revenue Recognition
Lastly, AGM’s revenue recognition process lacked consistency. Break-fix jobs and seasonal maintenance were billed manually, complicating invoicing and financial reporting. The company was in the midst of transitioning from a cash-based to an accrual-based accounting model, an essential shift to support their long-term growth and align with industry best practices. However, without integrated systems, this transition proved complex and time-consuming.
Why NetSuite & Appficiency
After evaluating alternatives like Acumatica and mHelpDesk, AGM selected NetSuite due to its ability to consolidate systems, automate workflows, and integrate with ServiceChannel and other third-party platforms.
A previous unsuccessful Acumatica implementation reinforced their need for a reliable partner. With Appficiency’s deep construction industry expertise and commitment to delivering tailored solutions, AGM had the confidence to make the switch.
Tailored Netsuite Implementation and FSM Customization
AGM’s implementation was straightforward thanks to the strong internal collaboration led by their CFO, Will Haden. While the project remained a green NetSuite implementation , Appficiency introduced powerful customizations:
- FSM Mobile Customization: Service teams now access job details, update statuses, and schedule work in real time, no more juggling systems.
- Case Capture Automation: Emails are now converted into NetSuite cases automatically, saving time and reducing missed service requests.
A customization library was built for future use, keeping the system nimble for potential expansion.
What Changed: The Big Wins After Implementing NetSuite
Platform Consolidation
One of the most immediate and impactful achievements was the successful consolidation of AGM’s technology stack. Legacy tools were fully retired, and client-facing platforms were seamlessly integrated into NetSuite. This eliminated the need for constant switching between systems, reduced fragmentation, and improved data consistency across departments.
Increased Operational Efficiency
With NetSuite’s Field Service Management (FSM) tools in place, AGM was able to unify workflows into a single source of truth. Real-time updates, automated case creation, and streamlined subcontractor tracking drastically reduced manual input and duplicative tasks. These changes enabled field teams and back-office staff to collaborate more effectively, saving valuable hours and significantly increasing day-to-day efficiency.
Improved Financial Accuracy
AGM’s transition to accrual-based accounting was fully supported by NetSuite’s robust financial management capabilities. Recurring billing, project-based billing, and revenue recognition were all standardized and automated. This not only improved reporting accuracy and compliance but also positioned AGM to scale its financial operations without additional manual overhead
Looking Ahead
With NetSuite in place, All Green Management is now equipped with a scalable, future-ready ERP platform that can evolve alongside the business. The system is well-prepared to support future acquisitions or service line expansions. For now, AGM remains focused on maximizing automation and operational excellence to deliver consistently exceptional service.
