Acumatica & Concentrus: Building a Home in Mexico
Acumatica, a leading provider of cloud-based business management software, has joined forces with its value-added reseller (VAR) partner, Concentrus, and the international non-profit organization Homes of Hope, to construct a new home for a family in need in Baja California, Mexico. Acumatica’s funding enabled Concentrus volunteers to complete the construction of the home in just two days, showcasing how strong business relationships can extend beyond commerce to create meaningful and lasting social impact.
The newly constructed two-bedroom home, built over three days from April 3-5, 2025, provides a stark contrast to the family’s previous living conditions. Equipped with a concrete foundation, electricity, plumbing, basic furnishings, a refrigerator, and a kitchen cooktop, the home offers a secure and stable environment.
“At Acumatica, we believe our impact should extend beyond our software solutions,” said John Case, CEO of Acumatica. “Supporting initiatives like this allows us to invest in the well-being of communities and demonstrate the real-world impact that values-driven partnerships can have. Working alongside Concentrus and Homes of Hope is a powerful example of how business can be a force for good and how together, we can make a real difference in people’s lives.”
Over several years, Concentrus and Acumatica have cultivated a strong professional relationship, collaborating to deliver cloud ERP solutions to growing businesses. Their expertise includes ERP software for construction, manufacturing, and distribution management. Concentrus extended this partnership beyond the business realm by inviting Acumatica to participate in the Homes of Hope building project. The Concentrus team found the experience deeply moving and a valuable opportunity to strengthen team bonds while contributing to a worthy cause.
“It’s incredible what can happen in just one weekend. We came to build a house, but left with something far greater: connection, empathy, and a shared sense of purpose,” said Jesse Guzman, ERP practice director at Concentrus. “Acumatica’s generous donation empowered us to provide more than a structure; we gave a family hope and a foundation for their future. It brought our team together in ways that will resonate long after the build.”
Homes of Hope, established in 1990 as a program of Youth With A Mission (YWAM) San Diego/Baja, has built over 9,000 homes for families in need across more than 30 nations. The organization views providing housing as a transformative act that helps break the cycle of poverty and provides volunteers with meaningful experiences that broaden their perspectives.
“Corporate partnerships like this are vital to expanding our mission,” said Sean Lambert, founder of Homes of Hope. “When a family moves from instability to a stable home, we see remarkable transformations: improved health, educational stability for children, and a renewed sense of dignity and possibility. Acumatica and Concentrus have helped one family rewrite their story, and the ripple effect of that act will last for generations.”
