  • Acumatica Summit 2026 debuted in Seattle, hosting over 3,000 attendees for its flagship community event.
  • The Day 1 keynote emphasized AI’s transformative role when combined with human ingenuity to enhance performance and decision-making.
  • AI is embedded directly into workflows for improved visibility, automation of routine tasks, and faster informed decisions without disrupting operations.
  • Acumatica announced the acquisition of CoreChain and a new partnership with AvidXchange to strengthen embedded accounts payable and receivable automation.
  • Customer of the Year Storm Smart doubled revenue and scaled operations using Acumatica to replace a legacy system.
  • Impact Customer of the Year PSI Family Services gained scalability and visibility to better serve communities with Acumatica Cloud ERP.

The keynote underscored Acumatica’s commitment to practical, responsible AI adoption that reduces complexity and empowers users.

“We’re living in an incredibly exciting age of AI, with endless possibilities—and impact that organizations are experiencing today. We see it with customers who are combining new AI capabilities with human ingenuity to enhance performance and empower people to do their best work,” said John Case, CEO of Acumatica. “That’s what Acumatica Summit is all about: showing how our vision for innovation is coming to life today, with customers achieving real, meaningful results across their operations.”

AI Strategy and Market Momentum

Acumatica’s approach moves customers from AI experimentation to practical, everyday use by integrating capabilities into core workflows. This focus on usability and responsibility helps businesses automate processes, gain better visibility, and make data-driven decisions efficiently. Recent developments in payments and financial operations further solidify this momentum, with the acquisition of CoreChain and integration partnership with AvidXchange joining existing capabilities with BILL. These enhancements deliver modern, scalable accounts receivable and payable automation tailored for mid-market needs, reducing reliance on disconnected tools and supporting growth.

Customer Success Stories Highlighted

Customer achievements took center stage, demonstrating the tangible value of modern ERP. Acumatica recognized organizations driving innovation and impact through the platform.

Storm Smart, one of Florida’s largest providers of hurricane protection solutions since 1996, doubled revenue over the past five years, expanded from two to seven branches, and grew to over 430 employees. By adopting Acumatica as its system of record in place of a legacy homegrown system, the company gained essential visibility, automation, and scalability to manage multi-location operations effectively while maintaining high-quality service.

PSI Family Services, a community-based nonprofit in Washington, DC, and Maryland founded in 1979, expanded its reach with clinics serving 800–1,000 individuals and a workforce of about 110 employees. Transitioning to Acumatica Cloud ERP from an unscalable legacy system provided the flexibility, security, and visibility needed to handle thousands of claims, integrate electronic health records, and enable staff to prioritize high-quality care and community impact.

“Storm Smart and PSI Family Services are fitting and inspirational examples of what’s possible when innovative organizations pair modern technology with strong leadership and a clear vision,” added Case. “They’re using Acumatica to drive real operational excellence, gain meaningful visibility across their businesses, and achieve measurable results. Their success reflects what our Community is all about: practical innovation that delivers impact today.”

Looking Ahead at Summit 2026

The event continues with additional keynotes, breakout sessions, hands-on learning, and announcements focused on innovation, community collaboration, and the future of ERP. More product enhancements and details on Acumatica’s AI roadmap will be shared throughout the week.
