Customers benefit from a single platform to manage jobs and place material orders
Beacon (Nasdaq: BECN) (the “Company”) announced today that its digital integration with AccuLynx is live and immediately available to customers. AccuLynx is a leading provider of all-in-one business management software for roofing contractors. This integration combines both companies’ industry-leading digital solutions to save customers time and create efficiencies.
Beacon’s PRO+ e-commerce functionality is now available in real time via the AccuLynx platform, where customers can place orders directly with their local Beacon branch from the same system they use to manage their roofing jobs. By authenticating their Beacon PRO+ account inside of AccuLynx, roofing companies can access Beacon’s extensive product catalog and pricing.
