A custom ERP system, built around how your company works
Off-the-shelf ERP systems promise everything in one place — then half the work goes back into spreadsheets, because the software doesn’t follow your process. We build ERP the other way round: we map how the work flows first, then connect sales, stock, production and finance into one system that follows it.

Signs you need an ERP system — or a different one
Few companies start with an ERP. They start with a spreadsheet, then another, then an invoicing program and a WhatsApp group. Or they own ERP software everyone has learned to work around.
- The same order is typed into three different programs
- Only the person keeping the spreadsheet knows the stock level
- Your ERP is used for invoices while everything else runs in Excel
- Every change to your off-the-shelf ERP takes months and per-user licences
- Management can’t see the margin per job until the month closes
- New hires spend weeks learning workarounds instead of the job
Same day, twice
One order — through five programs, and through one ERP system
Spreadsheets & separate programs
- 08:00An enquiry arrives by email; sales retypes it into a spreadsheet
- 10:30Sales phones the warehouse to check for material
- 13:00Production gets a printed job sheet without the agreed changes
- 16:00Nobody knows whether the job was profitable
- Month endAccounting merges spreadsheets to raise invoices
Custom ERP system
- 08:00The enquiry opens in the ERP, with the customer and prices already there
- 10:30Stock is visible next to the quote, and the material is reserved
- 13:00The job is created from the accepted quote, changes included
- 16:00The margin per job is visible while the job is still running
- Month endInvoices are prepared from the completed work

From enquiry to quote and order, with your own prices and terms.
Purchasing & stock
Inventory, reservations and supplier orders that keep themselves up to date.
Production & work orders
Planning, materials and the status of every job, visible to whoever needs it.
Finance & invoicing
Invoices from completed work and a link to your accounting software.
Reports & dashboards
Margin, deadlines and capacity in real time, not at month end.
Roles & permissions
Everyone sees and edits exactly what their job needs.
Built for teams like yours
Companies that have outgrown spreadsheets — or their ERP
We build custom ERP systems for small and mid-sized companies whose process is too specific for standard ERP software and whose workload is too big for Excel. You don’t have to replace everything at once: we often start with one module and connect it to the software you already have.
FAQ
Questions about ERP systems
ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) is a business system that connects sales, purchasing, stock, production and finance in one place. Instead of each department keeping its own spreadsheet, everyone works from the same data — the order entered by sales is the one the warehouse, production and accounting see.
Off-the-shelf ERP makes sense if your process matches the one it was built for. If your company stands out precisely by how it works — special quotes, make-to-order production, specific approvals — a custom ERP follows that process instead of forcing it into someone else’s template. No per-user licences, and the system and source code are yours.
No. Most of our clients are small and mid-sized companies. They lose the most to retyping between programs, and a custom ERP can start small — with one or two modules that solve the biggest problem.
No. We build ERP in phases and connect it to your accounting software, webshop or any part of your current system you want to keep. Every phase delivers something that’s used straight away.
It depends on the scope. That’s why we never roll out ERP all at once: a first useful version reaches your team early, and the rest follows in short, visible steps.
Yes. Data migration is part of the project: customers, items, price lists and open orders come across from spreadsheets or your old ERP — cleaned and reconciled.
