Manufacturing · Job shops and small plants
Small plants run an ERP that was old when they bought it, and replacing it is not on the table. The data is in there. Getting a usable report out means exporting, pasting, fixing the columns by hand, and sending a PDF that is already stale by the time anyone reads it. We leave the ERP alone and build the part that was missing.
Nothing gets replaced.
The work you get back.
Built around the ERP and the process you already have. Most builds of this kind finish in two to four weeks, at a fixed price agreed before work starts.

Reporting automated out of an aging ERP system. Packing and shipping overhauled. Inventory checked for errors every day instead of when something goes wrong.
Common questions
No. Replacing an ERP is a year of pain and we are not going to suggest it. We build alongside what you run, reading from it and writing back where that is possible, so the system your team already knows stays where it is.
Usually not. Old systems tend to have a database, an export, or a reporting tool we can work with. Part of the audit is finding out which, and telling you plainly if the answer is none of them.
It usually is, and that is worth knowing before anything is built. Where records are inconsistent we build the checks that surface it rather than quietly guessing, so a person decides what a bad record means.
One report or one process, done properly, so you can judge the work before committing to more. Reporting is the common starting point because the time it takes is easy to measure.
