The same order gets keyed in again and again — the quote becomes a work order becomes an ERP entry becomes a packing slip becomes an invoice, and then a line in your customer's EDI portal. The floor is dialed in. Everything around it is held together by spreadsheets and the one person who knows how it all works.

The parts ship on time. The friction is in everything around making them.
No two-year ERP replacement you'll never finish rolling out — just the specific fixes that pay off this quarter.
We start with one conversation. You walk me through a normal order — how a quote becomes a work order, how it hits the ERP, how it ships, how it gets invoiced, and where the same information gets typed twice. I listen for the repetitive and the manual, especially the glue between systems that don’t talk to each other.
A few days later you get a short, plain-English report: what’s costing you time, what fixes each thing, what it runs a month, and where to start. Most of it is connecting the ERP and tools you already pay for — EDI feeds that stop being hand-keyed, reports that build themselves, one clean entry point instead of five. Some of it I can build once and hand you with no new subscription. The report is yours either way.
In audits like this, most shops get back the better part of a day a week for around $75 a month in tools — before anything custom gets built.
An illustrative example — not a specific client.
“Every order from our biggest customer comes in through their EDI portal, and someone retypes it into our ERP by hand — then retypes the shipment back out. Nobody had ever added up the hours.”
→ One EDI-to-ERP bridge, built once. ~8 hrs/week back, and the typos stopped. No new monthly subscription.
Book a time, walk me through how an order actually moves through the shop, and get back a plan to get those hours back — whether or not you ever hire me again.
