ERP · CRM · CMMS

Running the company from a single system

An ERP is only worth having if the teams genuinely enter data into it. We build module by module, starting with the one that saves time fastest.

The problems we address

What brings you here

The information lives in spreadsheets

Every manager has their own file. Nobody knows which version is authoritative, and consolidation is done by hand.

Off-the-shelf ERPs are oversized

An expensive licence, endless configuration, eighty per cent of the functions unused — and gaps in your own trade all the same.

Maintenance is something you endure

Things get repaired when they break. No intervention history, no parts tracking, no anticipation.

Sales and operations share nothing

A signed order does not reach production automatically, and progress is invisible to the salesperson.

Deliverables

What you receive

  • Modular ERP: you pick the existing modules and commission the ones that are missing
  • Sales management: quotes, orders, invoicing, follow-ups
  • Financial management: payment tracking, cash position, accounting export
  • Human resources: records, leave, attendance
  • Stock and supply management
  • Purchasing and supplier management
  • Project management and time tracking
  • CRM: sales pipeline, customer history, follow-ups
  • CMMS: equipment register, work orders, spare parts
  • Planned preventive maintenance and corrective maintenance
  • Field intervention management with a mobile application

Benefits

What it concretely changes

You pay for what you use

The modular approach avoids paying for a functional scope you will never have any use for.

Data is entered only once

A quote becomes an order, then a delivery note, then an invoice, with no re-entry.

Maintenance becomes anticipated

Hour counters, intervals and thresholds trigger the work before the breakdown.

Adding a module does not break what exists

Each module has its own tables and rules; exchanges go through stable interfaces.

Features

What we can do in this area

  • Dashboards by role (management, sales, workshop, accounting)
  • Fine-grained rights by module, action and scope
  • Configurable approval workflows
  • Custom numbering and document templates
  • Multi-site and multi-currency
  • Mobile application for interventions and stock counts
  • Barcodes and QR codes on equipment and items
  • Accounting export in your accountant's format
  • Full history and audit log

Our approach

How we go about it

  1. Pilot module

    We start with the module that pays back fastest, often sales management or field interventions.

  2. Data migration

    Import of customers, items, equipment and history from your current files, with an exception report.

  3. Configuration with the teams

    Approval workflows, document templates and rights defined with the people who will use them.

  4. Gradual rollout

    One department after another, with on-site support during the first weeks.

  5. Extension

    Further modules are added once the previous one has genuinely been adopted.

Architecture

How it is built

At the heart of the system sits a shared core — users, rights, reference data, audit log — into which each business module plugs.

  1. Core

    Authentication, roles and permissions, shared reference data (parties, sites, items), audit log.

  2. Business modules

    Sales, purchasing, stock, HR, projects, maintenance: each self-contained and independently activatable.

  3. Rules engine

    Approval workflows, threshold alerts, preventive-maintenance schedules.

  4. Documents

    PDF generation, customisable templates, archiving and full-text search.

  5. Integrations

    Accounting and banking connectors, IoT platform and existing tools through APIs.

  6. Reporting

    Aggregated views and exports for analysis, without weighing down the operational database.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions

ERP, CRM and CMMS

Are your modules finished products or custom work?
Modules already built serve as a base and are adapted to your organisation. Modules you ask for that do not yet exist are built specifically.
Can the ERP be connected to our accounting software?
Yes, by export in the format your accountant expects, or through an API if the software offers one. We confirm feasibility during framing.
Does the CMMS work without a network in the workshop?
The mobile intervention application saves locally and synchronises on reconnection. Technicians are never blocked.
How many users can be connected?
There is no per-user licence. The limit is the sizing of the server, which we match to your volumes.
