ERP Automation

Your back office, running itself

ERP automation connects the systems your business runs on and takes the manual work out of them. Orders, invoicing, reconciliation, inventory, reporting, the routine tasks run on their own, your numbers stay real-time, and your team handles the exceptions instead of the data entry.

Challenge

Your systems don't talk to each other, so your team does it by hand

Orders land in one system and get re-keyed into another. Invoices get matched by hand. The numbers sit in tools that were never built to agree, so someone reconciles them and the month-end close waits on it. Every bit of growth adds more of the same, and hiring just puts more hands on the same manual work.

This doesn't need more hands. It needs the systems to run themselves.

What we automate

If it runs by hand, it can run itself

The work that eats your team's day is the routine kind, the same steps on every order, every invoice, every close. That is the work we move into the systems. It usually starts here.

Tell us what runs by hand

Point us at the work that eats the most time.

Order processing

Orders come in from every channel and land in your system of record as clean records, with no re-keying.

Invoicing

Invoices raised, sent, and matched against the order and the receipt automatically.

Reconciliation

Payments, payouts, and orders tied back to your books, with only the real breaks flagged.

Fulfilment routing

Each order sent to the right warehouse or 3PL, with ship confirmations and notices going out on time.

Exception handling

The system runs the clean ones untouched and surfaces only the ones that need a person.

Real-time reporting

The numbers consolidated as they happen, so you stop exporting to spreadsheets to know where you stand.

We work in the systems you already run, your ERP, your EDI partners, your 3PLs. We adapt to your environment instead of making you move.

How we build it

Anyone can connect two systems. Keeping them right is the job

The hard part shows up under real volume, when a file arrives twice, an API goes down, or a supplier sends a malformed order. Here is the standard we hold to on every build.

Mapped

Understand before we automate

We map how the work actually happens, with the people who do it, including the exceptions and the workarounds nobody wrote down. Automate a broken process and all you get is the same mess, faster.

  • The real process
  • With your team
  • Exceptions included

Own the code, don't rent it

The integration is built for your business, runs on your infrastructure, and belongs to you, code and credentials included. No per-connection fees, no logic trapped in someone else's tool. Any competent engineer could take it over.

Assume failure, design for it

Networks drop, APIs throttle, partners send bad files. Every flow retries safely, never double-books an order or a payment, and parks anything it can't resolve where a person can see it. Nothing is ever silently lost.

Prove it against your numbers

Before anything cuts over, we run the new automation next to your current process and reconcile it to the penny, so the systems agree on day one, not at month-end close. Then they keep checking each other.

Go live boring, and rehearsed

Phased switch-overs, one channel or partner at a time, a rollback we have already rehearsed, and close monitoring through the first weeks of live traffic. The goal is a launch nobody outside the project even notices.

Invoices are just one example, and automating any manual process removes a cost you'd otherwise keep paying forever.

75% lower

Automating invoice processing cuts the cost per invoice by about 75%, from roughly $12 by hand to under $3 for the top automated teams.
