Technology built for manufacturers who cannot afford downtime.
From Sage 300 ERP and inventory management to managed IT and cybersecurity, SFS Technologies serves BC manufacturers and distributors with integrated technology built around production realities.
ERP and IT that runs with your production.
Manufacturing businesses operate in environments where system downtime has direct production consequences. An inventory system that goes offline during a peak shipping period, or ERP data that does not sync between warehouse and accounting, creates costs that cannot be recovered after the fact.
SFS Technologies serves BC manufacturers and distributors with Sage 300 ERP implementation, managed IT, and cybersecurity built around production realities. We implement and manage the systems your business depends on and we keep them running.

Common questions, answered.
Common questions about this service answered directly.
Is Sage 300 suitable for a BC manufacturing business?
Yes. Sage 300 is built for mid-market manufacturers and distributors. It handles multi-warehouse inventory, serial and lot tracking, purchase orders, and order entry in a single integrated system. SFS implements and manages Sage 300 for manufacturers across BC including food production, building materials, and industrial distribution.
Can Sage 300 connect to our warehouse management system or production software?
Sage 300's API framework supports connections to warehouse management systems, barcode scanning platforms, and production scheduling tools. The right integration approach depends on which systems you are connecting. SFS scopes integration requirements during the discovery phase before any work begins.
Do you support manufacturing businesses outside Metro Vancouver?
Yes. SFS serves manufacturers and distributors across BC including the Fraser Valley, Okanagan, and Vancouver Island. Remote environments are managed through our managed IT service. On-site visits are available for implementation work and critical infrastructure issues.
What happens if our Sage 300 environment goes down during production hours?
For clients on a managed IT engagement, Sage 300 servers are monitored continuously. If a server issue is detected, SFS is alerted immediately and the issue is prioritized for same-day response. Critical outages receive immediate escalation.
Can SFS migrate us from our current accounting or ERP system to Sage 300?
Yes. ERP migrations require careful planning including data mapping, parallel running periods, and team training. SFS manages the full migration process: data extraction from your existing system, transformation, import into Sage 300, and validation before go-live.
