Founded in 1956 and headquartered in Eighty Four, Pennsylvania, 84 Lumber Company is the largest privately held supplier of building materials, manufactured components, and industry-leading services for single- and multi-family residences and commercial buildings in the United States. The company operates more than 320 locations across 34 states and employs over 7,000 associates.
As operations grew, 84 Lumber faced several database hurdles, including: Weak Vendor Support, Offshore Only Coverage, Tech Talent Shortages, and Legacy Databases & Systems.
84 Lumber partnered with DataStrike to stabilize and modernize core data systems while freeing internal teams to focus on high value work. DataStrike deployed the following strategies to help 84 Lumber: Fractional Expertise, Structured Implementation, Hands-On Performance Tuning, Flexible Engagement Structure.
Through this partnership, 84 Lumber saw measurable operational improvements: Significant Time Savings, Lower Costs, Faster, More Secure Databases, and On-Time, On-Budget Delivery.
WE NEEDED A NEW MSP TO HELP US UPGRADE OUR LEGACY DATABASE. WE WANTED ONSHORE SUPPORT, CULTURAL FIT, AND FLEXIBLE, SCALABLE DATABASE EXPERTISE. HAVING WORKED WITH DATASTRIKE BEFORE, I KNEW THEIR EXPERTS COULD DELIVER BETTER THAN WE COULD.
