Home / Services / ERP Implementation

The translator between your business and your ERP vendor

We manage ERP implementation from procurement to post-go-live training: selecting the right system, negotiating the contract, mapping your processes into it, migrating data, testing, and training the people who have to use it. Our job is to sit between your team and the IT professionals, so neither side is guessing what the other means.

ERP projects rarely fail on technology. They fail because the vendor builds what they were told, the business meant something else, and nobody in the room could speak both languages.

We sit between your team and the ERP vendor.

Why implementations go wrong

Your ERP partner is expert in the software. Your team is expert in your business. Neither is expert in the other, and the gap between them is where budget and timeline disappear.

The symptoms are always the same: requirements written by whoever was free, a system configured around an idealised process nobody follows, data migrated badly so nobody trusts the opening balances, and a go-live where the stores team quietly keeps using the old register.

What we do at each stage

We run the project on your side of the table, from before the vendor is chosen until well after go-live.

  • Requirement definition. Documenting how your business actually runs, and what the system must do — before a demo has anchored everyone's expectations
  • Selection and procurement. Vendor shortlisting, scripted demos on your own scenarios, commercial comparison and contract negotiation including scope, milestones and support terms
  • Process mapping and configuration review. Translating your SOPs into system workflows, approval limits and document numbering, then checking what the vendor built against what you asked for
  • Master data and migration. Cleaning item, customer, vendor and BOM masters — the single most underestimated task in any ERP project — and validating opening balances line by line
  • Testing. Writing user acceptance test scripts from real transactions and running them with your team, not signing off on a vendor demo
  • Go-live and cutover. Parallel run planning, cutover checklist, and being on site during the first close
  • Post-implementation training. Role-wise training for stores, purchase, production, sales and accounts, in the language your team works in, with written reference material they keep

Which ERP, and when not to

We are not resellers and take no vendor commission, which means we can tell you when the honest answer is that you are not ready, or that a full ERP is the wrong purchase for your size.

For a business under about ₹50 crore with a well-run accounting package, a focused stores and receivables system often delivers more, faster, at a fraction of the cost. We will say so before you sign a licence.

  • Selection support across SAP Business One, Microsoft Dynamics, Odoo, Zoho and Indian mid-market ERPs
  • Honest assessment of whether your processes are stable enough for ERP yet
  • Phasing advice, so you go live on the two modules that matter before attempting all nine
Client Results

What this looked like in a real business

Client names are held back for obvious reasons.

Manufacturing · stores & inventory

Stock on the system never matched stock on the floor

What was wrong
No defined process for receiving, issuing or counting material. Mismatches were common and pilferage was a real risk.
What we did
Set up goods receipt notes, issue slips, periodic physical counts and a monthly reconciliation that someone is accountable for.

Inventory differences down 50% and stock records now trusted by the bank.

Manufacturing · purchase function

Every buyer was negotiating a different price

What was wrong
Purchases went through without a standard approval route, so the same item was bought at different rates and vendor selection was informal.
What we did
Wrote a simple vendor onboarding, purchase order and approval process, with clear limits for who can approve what.

Purchase costs down 8–10%, with a clean audit trail on every order.

What you get

  • Requirement and process documentation
  • Vendor shortlist, scripted demos and commercial comparison
  • Contract and scope negotiation support
  • Master data clean-up and migration validation
  • User acceptance test scripts and sign-off
  • Go-live support and role-wise employee training

Manufacturing · stores and purchase

Written SOPs came first, then the system. Purchase approval limits and goods-receipt steps were defined and running on paper before they were configured, which is why adoption held after go-live — purchase costs fell 8–10% and inventory variances halved.

Questions we get asked

We already have an ERP partner. What do you add?

Your partner is accountable for the software. We are accountable for the outcome. We write the requirements, test what gets delivered, own the master data, and make sure your people can actually use the system on the Monday after go-live. In practice we also stop scope disputes turning into change requests you pay for.

Do you take commission from ERP vendors?

No. We are paid only by you, which is what makes the selection advice worth anything. If the right answer is a cheaper system, or no system yet, we have no reason not to say it.

How long does an ERP implementation take?

Four to nine months for a single-location manufacturer, depending on module scope and how clean the master data is. Selection and requirement definition is four to six weeks of that, and it is the part most businesses skip and later regret.

Our last ERP attempt failed. Can it be recovered?

Usually, yes. We start with an honest assessment of what is configured, what data is trustworthy, and what the team has quietly stopped using. Often a partial re-implementation of two or three modules, with proper training, rescues an investment people had written off.

Will you train our staff?

Yes, and we treat it as part of the project rather than an afterthought. Role-wise sessions for stores, purchase, production, sales and accounts, delivered in English, Hindi or Marathi, with reference material your team keeps.
