Services

Services: software that fits your company, not the other way round

From the potential analysis to the finished solution: we build what is missing between your ERP and your shop floor. Every service starts with what should change in your company. The technology comes after that.

How we talk about software

We sell the hole, not the drill

Nobody buys a drill because they want a drill. They need a hole in the wall. Software is no different: you do not need an interface. You need nobody to type anything in twice ever again. That is why we describe our work the way your production manager would describe it in the Monday meeting.

  • ERP extensions

    How everyone puts it “We develop tailor-made add-ons and modules for your ERP system.”

    How we put it Your ERP stays. Whatever it is missing, we build alongside it, so your people can stop keeping Excel lists on the side.

  • Interfaces

    How everyone puts it “We integrate your system landscape through modern interfaces.”

    How we put it A change in design engineering reaches production before the old part is built. Nobody types anything in twice.

  • Apps for production and assembly

    How everyone puts it “We develop custom web and mobile apps for your employees.”

    How we put it The fitter sees on the tablet which assemblies are ready to build, and does not start anything that cannot be finished.

  • Dashboards and reports

    How everyone puts it “Real-time dashboards and KPI reporting for data-driven decisions.”

    How we put it At seven in the morning you see which order is wobbling, not only when the customer calls.

Your alternatives, fairly compared

IT systems house, ERP vendor, freelancer or Excel?

Each of these options has its place. The question is what for. This is how we see the difference. Judge for yourself.

Large IT systems house

What you get there
Plenty of people, broad coverage, formal processes.
Where it falls short for machine builders
Changing contacts, consultants without manufacturing experience, a long concept phase. A mid-sized company is a small customer there.
What we offer instead
One fixed, small team. Whoever listens in the first conversation also does the development later.

ERP vendor: a new module or a new ERP

What you get there
Standard functions with vendor support.
Where it falls short for machine builders
Your company has to adapt to the standard. Customisations are expensive, and switching ERP ties the business up for a long time.
What we offer instead
Your ERP stays as it is. We build around it and connect, for exactly that one bottleneck, step by step.

Freelancer

What you get there
Flexible, direct contact, often a good developer.
Where it falls short for machine builders
A single person, and rarely someone who knows what a change to the bill of materials triggers just before assembly starts.
What we offer instead
A limited company with a team. And with 13 years of machine building behind it.

Excel, Access, “the colleague who knows how it works”

What you get there
Quick to set up, a perfect fit, seemingly free.
Where it falls short for machine builders
Depends on one person, runs on one computer, no multi-user operation, maintained twice alongside the ERP. Usually the real competitor.
What we offer instead
We take the Excel list seriously: it shows what your company really needs. We turn it into a solution that everyone can use at the same time and that is linked to the ERP.

The first step

Where do we start?

With the bottleneck that costs you the most. If you already know it, one conversation is enough. If not, we find it together, before anyone writes a single line of code.

Potential analysis

Potential analysis: one day, a clear picture.

Together we walk through your order process, from quotation to delivery. At the end you know where most of the time gets lost, what a solution would deliver and roughly what it would cost. If we see that a project is not worth it for you, we will tell you.

Would this pay off for us?

Tell us where things get stuck. We will tell you honestly whether software pays off at that point and whether we are the right people for it.
