Wayne, New Jersey, November 2 2026. Third Wave Business Systems, an SAP Business One partner with 23+ years in mid-market ERP, today announced it now sells and implements Acumatica Cloud ERP. As an Acumatica Gold Partner, Third Wave brings its implementation methodology and lead-consultant model to manufacturers, distributors and project-driven companies choosing a cloud-native platform.

The right ERP for each business

Growing businesses want one system they trust, available from the office, the shop floor and the road. Many still run on servers in a back room, with customizations blocking every upgrade and no clear path to the cloud. Adding Acumatica gives Third Wave clients a second proven platform to choose from, matched to how their business runs.

“Acumatica gives us a modern, cloud-native platform that fits the way growing businesses work today. Adding it lets us bring every client the right ERP for their business instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all answer.”

— Eddie Bearnot, CEO at Third Wave Business Systems

Acumatica is a true cloud ERP licensed on consumption, not per named user. Shop floor staff, planners and executives work in one system without a per-seat decision for each new login. Acumatica covers financials, distribution, manufacturing, project accounting, CRM and field service, and Nucleus Research named it a Leader in the 2026 SMB ERP Technology Value Matrix.

“Our clients aren’t asking us whether they should move to the cloud anymore. They’re asking how fast they can get there, and Acumatica has a strong answer to that question.”

— Brendan Sohan, Account Executive at Third Wave Business Systems

What Third Wave brings to Acumatica

Software is half the outcome. The other half is the team who implements it and stays on the account. Third Wave applies the same approach to Acumatica it uses across 500+ ERP implementations: a lead consultant who scopes the project, runs it, and stays with the client after go-live.

For manufacturers, Third Wave configures Acumatica Manufacturing Edition around the way each plant runs, whether job shop, make-to-order, configure-to-order or engineer-to-order. The work centers on estimating with real burden rates, engineering change control, shop floor data collection and full lot and serial traceability.

“We’ve spent years learning how manufacturers, distributors and project-driven companies really operate, and Acumatica lets us put all of that experience to work on a platform built for growth. I think this is one of the most exciting moves Third Wave has made, and our clients are going to feel the difference.”

— Kellen Liu, VP of Finance & Growth at Third Wave Business Systems

What this means for SAP Business One clients

Nothing changes for SAP Business One clients. Third Wave remains an SAP Gold Partner, and SAP Business One stays at the center of the business. Your lead consultant, support team, and products such as Bizweaver, Versago, ShipEasy and Forge AI carry on as before.

Acumatica widens the choice for new clients. Third Wave recommends the platform which fits each business best, and says so in writing before any quote.
