With the new ABC Supply connection, contractors can shave hours off every project by browsing the distributor's full catalog and submitting verified orders inside Leap CRM.

Leap, the complete platform for roofers and remodelers, today announced a new direct integration between Leap CRM and ABC Supply Co. Inc., the largest wholesale distributor of roofing and select exterior building materials in North America. The connection gives contractors a single workspace to browse ABC Supply's branch catalog, pull accurate pricing and availability into estimates, and place tracked orders without ever leaving Leap CRM.

Leap CRM integrates ABC Supply for real-time materials ordering

With the new ABC Supply connection, contractors can shave hours off every project by browsing the distributor's full catalog and submitting verified orders inside Leap CRM. Branch-level product offerings and real-time pricing flow directly into estimates, keeping proposals accurate and trustworthy. Once a customer signs, that estimate converts into a verified ABC Supply order, eliminating manual re-entry and costly errors, while order-status updates feed back into Leap CRM to keep sales, production and back-office teams aligned.

"Contractors shouldn't have to bounce between systems just to keep a job moving," said Patrick Fingles, CEO of Leap. "By bringing ABC Supply's real-time pricing and ordering inside Leap CRM, we're eliminating wasted clicks, phone calls and guesswork. Contractors can scope, price, order and track materials in one place — so projects move faster and with far fewer mistakes."

The integration taps directly into ABC Supply's branch-level data, giving contractors immediate insight into local product offerings and delivery schedules. That transparency helps crews plan jobs with confidence, avoid last-minute substitutions and keep projects on time and on budget, benefits that are especially critical during peak building seasons.

"ABC Supply is committed to helping contractors grow with technology that streamlines the way they run their business," said Kris Kieffer, director of customer enablement of ABC Supply. "Partnering with Leap extends that commitment by delivering our complete product catalog, real-time branch data and friction-free ordering directly into the CRM many of our customers already rely on. Together, we're giving them a faster, more accurate way to run their business every day."

Editor’s note: The following is the transcript of a conversation The Coffee Shops crew had after the first full day of the International Roofing Expo.

Karen Edwards: Day one of the International Roofing Expo (IRE) was so busy. There were so many people walking by our booth in the lobby, our alcove. It was an incredible first day. I got to walk around the show floor doing videos with our partners in their booths, and everybody was busy. The energy was high. People are happy. There are lots of new products. The Catch All, we were in their booth, and he had four new products available for pre order, not even on their website yet, but was really cool stuff, and it's just exciting and energetic to see all the people and all the new things that are coming to the roofing industry.

Alex Tolle: We got a new R-Club member yesterday, Noreaster Roofing, and they're based out of Nova Scotia. So pretty exciting to get another Canadian R-Club member and a lot of traffic at the booth. A lot of contractors are really interested in what we do. And a lot of people taking pictures of the booth and of the interviews, kind of felt like we were celebrities up there, and they were excited to see what we were doing. 

Megan Ellsworth: I was working the sound stage, interviewing all of our partners that we work with on The Coffee Shops. And I think my favorite interview was all of them. I'm not going to say my favorite because I can't think of one because they're all so good, but some standouts were Central States Building Works and Melissa Dunson, love her. Wendy Marvin with Matrix Roofing and Home Solutions. She's amazing and really cares about her customers and has a lot to say about the industry. The show was absolutely a complete success. For day one, everyone I talked to on the soundstage said that their booth was swamped with people and that it was nice to get away and be able to sit for a minute. 

Then we went to the Brava Roof Tile hospitality. We love Brava, their roof tiles and their products are just so beautiful. And so we were really happy to support them, take some photos at their event. And then we hopped over to the EagleView hospitality and got to see our friends, Rob Soper, Piers Dormyer and all the EagleView pals. They're so great. And then we went to Polyglass and got to see Bud Polston and Steve Wadding. And it was just a really, really great night. And the Polyglass party was super fun because it was at Howl at the Moon, and they had the best music. Steve is a hoot and a half. 

Lauren White: I was one of the floor teams with Zane, and we also walked around the show floor and met with all of our partners, and everyone is always just so excited to see us in their booths, and they're excited to talk about what new things they have going on and to really highlight their booths. And this year, I feel like a lot of people wanted to give us a full booth tour. We had a full day of interviews, and our booth setup looks great. Everyone who saw our booth was talking about our setup in the alcove and excited to see what we’re up to. And we also sponsored the First-time Attendees Reception right before the ABC Supply Welcome Party, and that was a great turnout. We handed out some branded koozies that were fun and people enjoyed and then we kind of divided and conquered from there and went to different hospitalities. And the band was really great at Polyglass and we had a good time there.

Itzel Najera: I was also on the floor in interviews. It was quite an interesting morning. We got to interview SRS Distribution partners, Amparo from Latinos en Roofing and we got to meet several contractors. One of the things I really enjoyed was at the end of the day, we got to see the SRS Para Latinos awards, and it was amazing just seeing all those contractors get recognized for their hard work. We also got to go to the SRS cocktail lounge, and that was really fun. They had great music. I feel like SRS has really cool events that we go to, and I really enjoy that. 

Evelyn Witterholt: We had back-to-back soundstage interviews all day long. It never stopped. But they were all really good. And I think our booth is in a really incredible spot this year, because right when the show floor opened, we got so much foot traffic and so many people. The amount of people I saw yesterday just stopping to stare at our booth and see who we are and what we're doing was really incredible. The few times I got to walk away from our booth and come back, the amount of people hanging out in the lounge area and taking our swag was really something to see. And I'm getting a lot of good content for our social media.

Dani Sheehan: I was also on the show floor pretty much the entire day. Walked almost 20,000 steps for the day. But it was really incredible, especially being able to see everyone and everything getting set up yesterday, and the madness of bringing it all together. It was so cool to walk into the show on day one and see just how incredible it is. So many of our partners are here with us. It was really great to see everybody, and I felt like a celebrity walking around and talking to people, seeing what they're doing and talking about what’s new in the industry this year.

Jessica Bravo: Honestly, day one was amazing. I was on the show floor, and I attended Spanish sessions from GAF that Alan Lopez hosted. My favorite interview has to be with Ana Maria from CertainTeed. She was talking about how everything they offer at their booth is in English and Spanish. So, I thought that was pretty cool. And we also spent most of our day with SRS at their Para Latinos booth. Very huge success.

Zane Delucci: I had a great first day at IRE. Some of my first expeditions in general. So that was really nice. Walked around with Lauren, and my favorite part so far has been the software talks that we've had. So that includes Sales Assist, Jobba, Leap, EagleView, Estimating Edge, those companies have been really great to talk to learn from. A rose and a thorn would be loved to just talk to new folks and learn their stories. And the thorn would be, it's cold. It's very cold, but no complaints. Looking forward to day two.

The new partnership between Beacon and Leap revolutionizes material ordering to save contractors time and money. 

Make your ordering process seamless with this partnership between Beacon Building Products and Leap! Through this partnership, you can access live pricing and direct ordering of Beacon products from within Leap’s all-in-one contractor business platform. Beacon is one of the largest commercial and residential roofing distributors in the U.S. and accessing their library of products through Leap’s CRM allows you to create custom templates and more.  

Not only does this make your workflow more efficient and cohesive, but the live pricing factor eliminates common pricing errors, meaning you don’t have to worry about underselling a job or offering materials that are not available by accident! And when the contract has been signed, you can move forward in the same place, using the Leap CRM to generate material lists and place orders. Katy Rebernak, Beacon’s director of eCommerce, shared a few thoughts on the collaboration, saying, “The Beacon x Leap integration helps contractors save time by turning proposals into material orders in minutes. Every order placed using this integration is triple checked for accurate, complete delivery by the local Beacon team. Contractors know they’re getting the best when they use Leap to order from Beacon.” 

This powerful partnership is also incredibly user friendly! Here’s what it would look like to get started:  

1. Connect your Beacon Pro+ account to your Leap account! 
2. Once the accounts are linked, you can start building out your Beacon Macros. These are worksheet templates that come pre-filled with line items. Building these templates for your frequent job scenarios will make building workshops in the next step much easier. 
3. Once the Macros are built out, you can apply the set of templated items to an estimate worksheet, which will be the launching point for the entire project.  
4. After you’ve made the estimate worksheet using items supplied by Beacon, you can generate a Document (like a proposal) from that.  
5. Once the Document is signed you can then generate the material list and a Beacon Order Form which will allow you to place your order directly within Leap.

“You could be an artist and do really good work, but that’s not why homeowners are upset. Homeowners are upset because of the miscommunication and unreliability of the work.” – Leap CEO, Patrick Fingles.

And at Leap, we’re dedicated to providing roofers with a platform that can adapt your business today to where you want it to be in the future.
