ICBA Constructs a Stronger Financial Future With Sage Intacct

2:25

Founded in 1975, the Independent Contractors and Businesses Association (ICBA) is Canada's largest construction association, supporting over 4,500 members and clients across British Columbia and Alberta.

With operations spanning 14 entities, ICBA needed a financial management solution that could keep pace with its growing organization.

That's why ICBA turned to Sage Intacct and Vision33 to modernize finance, simplify reporting, and gain real-time visibility.

The Challenge

For nearly 20 years, ICBA relied on Sage 300 to manage finance across its growing organization. As operations became more complex, the on-premises system became increasingly difficult to manage.

An oversized chart of accounts, manual reporting, VPN access, and reliance on third-party support made daily finance tasks more time-consuming than they needed to be.

The team wanted a cloud-based financial management solution that could simplify multi-entity reporting and provide better insights into performance.

The Solution

After evaluating Sage Intacct, Oracle NetSuite, and Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, ICBA chose Sage Intacct.

Role-based dashboards, customizable reporting, drill-down capabilities, and flexible dimensional reporting gave the finance team the visibility and efficiency they were looking for—without the complexity of an all-encompassing ERP solution.

The Sage Intacct Partner

Vision33 played a critical role throughout the evaluation and implementation process.

From the first product demo to ongoing support, ICBA valued Vision33's hands-on approach and finance expertise.

With certified consultants, including chartered professional accountants, Vision33 ensured ICBA’s smooth transition to cloud financials.

The Result

Since implementing Sage Intacct, ICBA has transformed how its finance team works.

The organization benefits from real-time dashboards, faster approvals, AP automation, simplified multi-entity reporting, and automatic quarterly updates.

Instead of spending time maintaining legacy processes, ICBA’s finance team focuses on forecasting, analyzing performance, and supporting strategic decisions.
