Once the process is clear, it needs the right tools. We help you choose software, connect your systems, build what's missing and implement an open-source ERP (ERPNext) when you need one. But first, we get the most out of what you already have.
YOUR SITUATION
Everything runs on spreadsheets. Planning, inventory, or quotes live in Excel files passed around by email. Nobody is quite sure which version is the right one.
Your systems don't talk to each other. The ERP, the accounting system, the CRM, and the spreadsheets each hold part of the truth, and your people are the bridge.
Your ERP can't keep up, or you don't have one. It was set up years ago, nobody dares touch it, and every new need becomes one more file on the side.
A vendor is pushing a replacement. The demo is impressive, the prices are hard to compare, and you have no way of knowing whether the tool fits your real needs before you sign.
What you need doesn't exist on the market. The way you build, quote, or track orders is your own, and no off-the-shelf software covers it without contortions.
THE COST
You pay for a bad software choice for years: in licences, in workarounds and in data nobody trusts.
Workarounds: every limit of the system becomes one more spreadsheet, one more round of re-keying, one more person everything depends on.
Doubtful data: when information is scattered, nobody knows which number to believe, and decisions get made on instinct.
Misdirected purchases: software chosen from a demo, with no written requirements, can cost more to make work than to buy.
Lock-in: a closed system, data that is hard to get out, and a vendor who sets the price of every change.
WHAT WE DO
When you need a new tool, we write the requirements from your processes, build a shortlist, run demos against your real scenarios, and compare total cost. We don't resell any vendor.
You get: a requirements document, a comparison grid, and a recommendation.
We connect the systems you already have (ERP, accounting, CRM, spreadsheets, customer portal) so information is entered only once. When nothing on the market fits how you work, we build a simple, focused tool that belongs to you.
You get: connected systems, or a custom tool in production, documented and yours.
We implement ERPNext: setup to fit your processes, data migration, connections to your other systems, training, and support after go-live. Open source means you aren't locked into one vendor, and your data stays yours.
You get: an ERP in production, with your team trained to use it.
WHAT WE DELIVER
A requirements document drawn from your processes, written before any demo, so vendors are judged on your scenarios rather than theirs.
A total-cost comparison: licences, implementation, training, upkeep, and what it would cost to get out.
Systems that talk to each other: orders, inventory, and invoicing kept in sync between the ERP, accounting, and your other tools, with no re-keying.
Critical spreadsheets replaced by a shared tool, with a single version of the truth.
An ERP configured to your processes, with your data migrated, your teams trained, and support after go-live.
Your data, in your hands: open-source or purpose-built solutions, with no lock-in.
Replacing your ERP is rarely the right first move. We start by getting the most out of what you already have.
HOW WE SOLVE PROBLEMS
We start from the problem and pick the simplest fix that will last. This page covers one of the four steps.
See how your plant really works: who knows what, how work flows, where it gets stuck. Everything else is built on that documented know-how.
Knowledge ContinuitySoftware doesn't fix a fuzzy way of working. It freezes it. Before choosing, connecting or building anything, we get clear on how the work should flow.
Operations EfficiencyWhat you have first, then what's missing. Configuring and connecting your current systems often solves the problem without buying anything. Otherwise: an off-the-shelf tool when one exists, custom work when it doesn't, an open-source ERP such as ERPNext when you need one.
Reading documents whose format keeps changing, handling requests written in everyday words, pulling information out of documents with no fixed layout.
AI MasteryAutomating a bad process only speeds up the mess. That's why we rarely start with technology, and never with AI.
WHERE TO START
Two ways to start, both free: talk it through with us, or size it up yourself first.
Thirty minutes. You tell us about your systems and what's not working, we tell you how we can help and where to start.
