Enterprise Systems

ERP, business process and collaboration platforms: selection, implementation and the integration work that decides whether either succeeds.

  • ERP Solutions
  • Business Management
  • Communication and Collaboration

Enterprise system projects rarely fail on the technology. They fail on the distance between how the vendor assumes the business works and how it actually works, which is discovered late and expensively. Most of our value in this area is spent closing that distance before the implementation starts.

ERP

SAP S/4HANA, Oracle and PeopleSoft: selection, implementation and integration. We work both sides of these programmes, advising on fit before commitment and delivering the integration and customisation afterwards. The advisory half matters more than it is usually given credit for, because the costly decisions are made before anyone writes code.

Business process platforms

Procurement, finance and operational tooling, including Coupa, Zycus, Apptio, OneStream, Murex and Calipso. The work is typically integration: connecting a specialist platform to the systems around it so that data does not need re-keying, and so that the process the platform assumes matches the process the organisation runs.

Collaboration and workflow

Communication and collaboration tooling, MuleSoft integration work, and the automation that connects systems which were never designed to talk to each other. Unglamorous, and frequently the difference between a platform that gets adopted and one that gets worked around.

Where this has been applied

A collateral and limit management platform, a secure IP management solution, an inspection and certification platform, and a range of financial applications built to integrate with existing core systems.
