ERP customization & integration.
NetSuite- and SAP-aware integration layers expose inventory, contract pricing, credit limits, and order writeback to your portals in near real time. The overnight batch job retires.
Make the ERP work for you →An ERP-integration, CPQ, dealer-portal, and shop-floor engineering practice. NetSuite- and SAP-aware integration, EDI workflows, GS1 barcode and RFID tracking, ISO-9001-aware quality flows. All shipped from NY + Delhi on a six-week cadence.
We build eight shapes of manufacturing software, all anchored to the ERP you already run. That matters because manufacturing software fails in places generic web work never visits. The batch job syncs overnight while your sales team quotes against yesterday's inventory. The quoting spreadsheet lives in one estimator's head. The dealer channel stalls at email-and-PDF ordering.
These eight shapes cover most of what plant operators and industrial distributors bring us. Each one extends your ERP, never a rip-and-replace. Every engagement runs on the six-week cadence, with a written scope inside 48 hours of the first call.
NetSuite- and SAP-aware integration layers expose inventory, contract pricing, credit limits, and order writeback to your portals in near real time. The overnight batch job retires.
Make the ERP work for you →Barcode- and RFID-driven tracking of tools, dies, fixtures, and fleet assets. Check-in and check-out, maintenance histories, and utilization reports end the radio-call hunt.
Stop losing track of assets →Configure-price-quote flows encode your engineering rules, volume breaks, and margin floors. A spec becomes a priced quote in hours, not a week of estimator email.
Quote in hours, not weeks →Self-serve ordering with per-account contract pricing, NET-30 terms, approval routing, and reorder-from-history. This is the workflow that lifts a dealer channel past the manual-processing ceiling.
Let dealers serve themselves →Throughput, WIP, scrap, and OEE pulled from the ERP and shop-floor sources into one live surface. The production meeting argues about decisions, not spreadsheets.
See the floor in real time →ISO-9001-aware NCR, CAPA, and inspection workflows with full audit trails. Nonconformances get owners and deadlines instead of a binder.
Make quality auditable →Structured spec, fitment, and interchange data with search and filtering that actually works. It replaces the PDFs and part-numbers-in-page-titles pattern that quietly kills catalog conversion.
Make the catalog searchable →Offline-capable mobile apps for technicians: work orders, parts lookup, service history, and photo documentation that syncs back to the ERP when the signal returns.
Put the ERP in the truck →Standards-aware means the architecture, not a certificate. ISO certification is a status your company earns from a registrar. No software partner can hand it to you.
What an engineering partner does control is whether your systems make audits, EDI onboarding, and ERP projects cheap or expensive. We build for cheap: structured data, documented interfaces, audit trails from day one.
Purchase orders, advance ship notices, and invoices exchanged on ANSI X12 transaction sets. Onboarding a big-box or OEM trading partner becomes configuration, not a rebuild.
Asset and inventory identification built on GS1 standards: GTINs, serialized labels, and RFID reads that stay interoperable with every carrier and customer downstream.
NCR, CAPA, and document-control flows structured around ISO 9001 requirements. Aware, not certified. Your registrar audit becomes evidence-gathering, not evidence-inventing.
STEP, DXF, and drawing PDFs attached to quotes, work orders, and revisions with versioning. The shop floor machines the current rev, not the one from the March email thread.
Dealer and customer records handled with data minimization, deletion workflows, and consent records aligned with EU data-protection law. It matters the day you sell into Europe.
Deep, documented integration against NetSuite and SAP-aware interface patterns. Inventory, pricing, credit, and order writeback tuned to minutes of sync lag, built on primary documentation.
Four bottlenecks show up in almost every industrial operation we audit. Each has a structural fix. Each fix pays for itself in the coordination hours it deletes.
Spec capture by email thread means slow quotes and estimator burnout. We encode the rules into a CPQ or configurator flow. In the Detroit archetype, that cut coordination per custom-build order from 8 hours to under 1.5. Custom-build orders climbed from 3% of total to 22%.
Email-and-PDF ordering caps the channel at whatever inside sales can type. A self-serve portal with contract pricing and NET terms removes the ceiling. The Detroit archetype grew active dealers from 30 to 78 in 12 months. The B2B industrial archetype moved self-serve share from 18% to 55%.
Nightly ERP sync means quoting against yesterday's inventory and days-long confirmations. We tune integration to minutes. In the B2B industrial archetype, NetSuite sync landed under 15 minutes and the order-to-confirmation cycle fell from 72 hours to 18.
Spec data trapped in titles and datasheets breaks search, filtering, and reorder. We restructure it into typed fields the catalog, quoting flow, and field app all read. That restructure moved parts conversion from 0.9% to 2.4% in the Detroit archetype.
Manufacturing software runs from $30,000 for an MVP to $1M+ at enterprise scale. A CPQ tool, a dealer portal, or a production dashboard is SaaS-shaped software, so the honest ranges follow build stage. An MVP that replaces the spreadsheet runs $30,000 to $80,000 over 10-16 weeks.
A post-PMF-equivalent platform runs $80,000 to $200,000 over 16-26 weeks. Scale-stage builds with SSO, RBAC, and audit logs run $200,000 to $500,000 over 24-40 weeks. Enterprise builds with multi-region deployment cross $500,000 to $1M+.
ERP integration usually lands in the first two stages. The connector and sync tuning is weeks of work, not a platform bet.
The full stage-by-stage math, including the build-vs-buy table that saves $150K+ on most scale builds, lives in our SaaS development cost guide. For a field service app, the mobile app development cost guide covers native and cross-platform ranges.
| stage | timeline | market range |
|---|---|---|
| MVP / pre-PMF | 10-16 weeks | $30K-$80K |
| Post-PMF | 16-26 weeks | $80K-$200K |
| Scale | 24-40 weeks | $200K-$500K |
| Enterprise | 32-52 weeks | $500K-$1M+ |
Scope moves price, not the conversation. Every quote arrives in writing within 48 hours of the intro call, itemized by build shape.
$80K to $410K MRR in 18 months.
From $89 pre-engagement, on bundle and custom-build attach.
Active dealers over 12 months after the B2B portal shipped.
Share of orders with a custom-build configuration, from 3%.
The pattern starts with an automotive aftermarket operator at $80K MRR. Fitment data sat trapped in product titles. Custom builds were quoted by email at 8 hours of coordination per order, and the dealer channel was stuck at 30 accounts on an email-and-PDF workflow.
Sixteen weeks and five workstreams changed that: structured fitment data, a build configurator, a dealer B2B portal, drop mechanics, and vehicle-cohort email. Read the full Detroit Motor City archetype, or see the ERP side of the discipline in the B2B industrial supplier archetype: NetSuite sync under 15 minutes, an order cycle cut from 72 hours to 18, and reorders compounding at 4.2x first-order GMV.
The cadence is the contract. Every build runs in six-week cycles with a demo every Friday, so you watch the software grow weekly instead of hoping at the end of a quarter.
A 30-minute call on your ERP, your order flow, and the bottleneck that hurts most. The written scope covering build shapes, timeline, and fixed fee lands inside 48 hours of that first call.
Weeks one to two: the data model, the ERP interface map, and a clickable prototype of the quoting or ordering screens. Everything gets validated with the estimator before production code.
Weeks two to five: senior engineers on a staging environment you can click from day three. Friday demos, ERP sandbox wired early, sync jobs tested against edge cases like partial shipments and credit holds.
Week six: phased cutover, top accounts first, never big-bang. Monitoring goes live, runbooks are handed over, and the old workflow stays warm until the new one carries real orders.
The next six-week cycle is scoped from live data: quote turnaround times, dealer adoption, sync-lag telemetry. Not from a backlog written before the portal had users.
Industrial software rewards proven primitives: typed languages, relational databases, and integration patterns with real documentation. The novelty budget goes on your workflow, not the plumbing.
115 people across two HQs and three satellites since 2017. No bait-and-switch juniors , the engineers on the call are the engineers on the build.
US mornings overlap Delhi evenings, so an integration blocker raised at your standup is often resolved before your next one.
The cadence is public and non-negotiable. You see working software weekly; a slipping build has nowhere to hide by week two.

The decision tree for field service apps, where offline capability and camera workflows decide the answer.
Manufacturing software follows SaaS cost stages. An MVP , a CPQ tool, a dealer portal, an asset tracker , runs $30,000 to $80,000 over 10-16 weeks. A post-PMF-equivalent platform runs $80,000 to $200,000; scale-stage with SSO, RBAC, and audit logs runs $200,000 to $500,000; enterprise multi-region builds cross $500,000 to $1M+. Every engagement starts with a 30-minute call and a written, itemized scope inside 48 hours.
Yes , integration around the existing ERP is the default shape of our manufacturing work. The ERP stays the system of record; portals, dashboards, and field apps read from it and write back through documented interfaces. In the B2B industrial archetype, NetSuite sync ran under 15 minutes via Celigo and cut the order-to-confirmation cycle from 72 hours to 18. SAP work follows the same interface-first, SAP-aware pattern.
Certification is a status your company earns from a registrar , no software partner can transfer it, and we won't pretend otherwise. What we deliver is ISO-9001-aware architecture: NCR, CAPA, inspection, and document-control workflows with owners, deadlines, and complete audit trails, structured so the evidence your auditor asks for is a report you run, not a binder you assemble the week before.
A portal with contract pricing, NET terms, approval routing, and reorder-from-history typically runs two six-week cycles, with the ERP connector wired in the first. Cutover is phased , top accounts first, never big-bang. The payoff pattern from our archetypes: active dealers from 30 to 78 in 12 months, and self-serve share from 18% to 55% once buyers can order without emailing a rep.
Yes. Quoting and work-order flows carry STEP files, DXF exports, and drawing PDFs as versioned attachments tied to a revision, so the floor always machines the current rev. We also restructure spec and fitment data into typed fields that search, filtering, CPQ rules, and the field app all read.
Yes. Launch includes monitoring, alerting, and incident runbooks , a dealer portal that goes quiet on a Monday morning is a revenue event. Most operators continue on a product retainer: six-week cycles scoped from live data such as quote turnaround, dealer adoption, and sync-lag telemetry. Teams taking it in-house get documented architecture and a transition window where our engineers pair with yours.
Depends on the job. This page covers custom software around your operation , ERP integration, CPQ, asset tracking, production dashboards, field apps. If the goal is selling wholesale through an online storefront with company accounts, tiered pricing, and NET terms on a commerce platform, start from our B2B wholesale practice instead. Many manufacturers need both; the 30-minute call sorts which rail your bottleneck sits on.
A 30-minute call on your ERP, your order flow, and the bottleneck costing you the most hours. You leave knowing which build shape fits and what it costs; the written scope follows within 48 hours.
