INNERGY is heading to the SMA 2026 Annual Conference, taking place April 30 – May 2 in Kansas City, Missouri. Hosted by the Stairbuilders and Manufacturers Association, this is the premier gathering for stair industry professional, and we’re excited to be joining!
Finding Our Groove
This year’s theme, “Finding Our Groove: Elevating Stairbuilding,” is a perfect fit for what INNERGY is all about. The conference brings together stair manufacturers, builders, and suppliers for keynotes, hands-on workshops, and real conversations about what it takes to run and grow a stairbuilding business. We’re looking forward to being in the room for all of it.
Who’s Attending from INNERGY
Come meet our INNERGY staff! Jillian Klinar and James Stanley will be representing, come say hello.
What INNERGY Does for Stair Manufacturers
Stair manufacturing is a complex business. Every project is custom, every job has its own variables, and as you grow, spreadsheets and manual tracking start to break down fast.
INNERGY is ERP software built specifically for the woodworking industry — and stair manufacturers are a core part of who we serve. From real-time job costing and inventory tracking to centralized data and remote accessibility, INNERGY gives stair builders visibility into every part of their operation so nothing falls through the cracks.
If stair manufacturing is your business, visit our stair manufacturers page to learn more about how INNERGY is built for the way you work.
See You in Kansas City
If you’re heading to SMA 2026, come find us. We’d love to connect and show you what INNERGY can do for your stairbuilding business.
As INNERGY expands our reach in the woodworking industry, we’re now working more closely with custom stair manufacturers, giving stair builders a smarter way to manage complexity, scale smoothly, and stay in control.
For growing stair companies, spreadsheets and Kanban boards eventually hit a wall. INNERGY understands that every step is custom-built, and our software is designed to give you visibility, accuracy, and control across the unique demands of high-end stair manufacturing.
Every Stair Is Unique. Your Software Should Be Too.
No two stair projects are the same. Curves, radiuses, tread profiles, and balusters change from job to job. Software built for repetitive production will only slow you down.
INNERGY is a cloud platform built for custom manufacturers. It streamlines operations, eliminates manual chaos, and supports sustainable growth without sacrificing craftsmanship.
The Challenge: Custom Work Meets Complex Operations
Stair builders deal with one-off geometries, profiles, and materials on every job. Creativity stays high, but complexity piles up. Many shops reach a breaking point when manual systems can’t keep pace:
- Spreadsheets that don’t sync or scale
- Whiteboards that can’t track multiple jobs
- Sticky notes that vanish when you need them most
As projects grow and timelines tighten, visibility suffers. That’s your signal to move to INNERGY.
Flexible Workflows that Actually Work
From curved rails to floating stairs, INNERGY adapts to the way you build. No more forcing stair work into cabinet templates or rigid ERP systems.
Custom doesn’t mean chaotic. INNERGY brings order to complex builds with tailored BOMs, flexible routings, and labor factors built for the way stair builders actually work.
Centralized Control Instead of Scattered Spreadsheets
Estimate, schedule, track, and manage inventory all in one place. INNERGY becomes your single source of truth for every project, giving you confidence from bid to install.
Real-Time Visibility from Anywhere
Monitor job progress, materials, and labor costs in real time whether you’re in the office, on site, or on vacation. One of our customers even managed his shop 1,800 miles away using INNERGY.
Education and Community, Not Just a Tool
INNERGY backs the platform with education, events, and peer learning for builders who want to grow smarter. Join Summits, Forums, and weekly sessions to trade playbooks, share best practices, and sharpen your operations alongside other high-performing shops.
