Moving from a Patchwork of Systems to a Connected Operation
Background
JMAC Group is a specialist in construction access solutions, supplying edge protection, scaffolding and safety systems to major housebuilders and contractors across the UK. The business operates in a sector where accurate stock management, fast order processing and reliable fulfilment are critical. Delays or errors on a construction site have real consequences.
JMAC needed a technology setup that could keep pace with its operations and support growth.
The challenge
JMAC was running on Cin7 Omni, but the system wasn’t meeting the business’s needs. Integration capability was limited, and the broader technology stack, which included InspHire for hire management, HubSpot, Xero and WooCommerce, was fragmented. The systems weren’t properly connected to each other.
This meant sales, finance and operations were not working from the same data. Stock, purchasing and order management required manual intervention at multiple points. Remote teams were dealing with slow VPN access. And the WooCommerce online shop wasn’t syncing with the ERP, meaning online orders created additional manual work rather than flowing through automatically.
The solution
BlueHub guided JMAC through a full system migration from Cin7 Omni to Cin7 Core. The move was driven by Cin7 Core’s stronger integration capabilities and its better fit with JMAC’s operational requirements.
BlueHub configured and implemented Cin7 Core and handled the integration with Xero directly, automating financial processes and giving the business proper visibility over purchasing, credit limits and customer account balances. For the HubSpot and WooCommerce integrations, JMAC’s own development team led the technical work, with BlueHub providing support and guidance.
