Core Business System and Business System Development

Our Approach

We bring information on companies, business partners, projects, and products into one place and link your tasks together

When tools and spreadsheets are split by task, such as ordering and order management, billing, incoming and outgoing payments, and payroll, the same information gets entered over and over, and compiling the numbers takes time. Entry mistakes also spread into other sheets.

In the core business system for a construction company, information on companies, craftspeople, sites, and materials is managed in one place, and everything from estimates to progress-based billing, incoming and outgoing payments, expenses, payroll, and profit and loss is connected through one set of data. Duplicate entry from ordering to profit and loss has been eliminated.

Our Approach

We build a business system that business partners outside your company can also use on the same screens

When document requests, submissions, and approval notices are scattered across email, it takes time just to track which document is the latest and how far each project has progressed.

In the business system for a testing and certification body, we consolidated communication with manufacturers, about 20 companies and more than 100 people, into chat, document submission management, approval workflows, and deadline management. Nearly all business communication with manufacturers now goes through the system.

Our Approach

We start with the work that troubles you most and expand as you use it

If you start using the system only after every required feature has been built, the work that troubles you most is left untouched in the meantime.

For the business system at a testing and certification body, building everything at once was expected to take 9 months to 1 year, so we narrowed the scope to the review work with the heaviest burden, built that first, and began operations in about six months.

Our Approach

We design it to fit the way your company works

Off-the-shelf core business systems assume general business processes. Adapting them to industry-specific ways of counting and procedures leaves you with forced customization and manual work that continues outside the system.

In the core business system for a construction company, we set it up so that entering just the quantity for each room automatically totals the site’s estimate, billing, costs, and gross profit. In the core business system for a wholesaler that handles tens of thousands of stock items across multiple sales channels, we also decided the rules for allocation and status one by one to fit the business.
