Thinking about an ERP upgrade?
If you're running a growing business and thinking about taking things up a notch for some serious expansion, it might be time to explore ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software. ERP software helps businesses manage and automate various aspects of their operations, including finance, human resources, supply chain, manufacturing, procurement, project management and more. So, how do you know if you’re ready?
- ERP software is a great fit for businesses on the rise, especially if you're ready to move on from Xero and are now looking for a central system that's rich in industry-specific features - something with all the bells and whistles that you can customise to your heart's content.
- This software is well-suited to companies making the jump to ERP when they've outgrown legacy systems like Accredo, Reckon, Quickbooks, Attache, EXO, GreenTree, Pronto, Sage, Abel and Moneyworks.
For these businesses, we like to deliver ERP with a modern twist. Using API integration, we build solutions designed to leverage other business apps across the cloud and mobile platforms, ultimately creating a much more affordable solution. At ALTSHIFT, we'll also take care of the planning and project management, from system selection and scoping to data migration, testing, training, and ongoing support.
We've guided ERP upgrades for a number of significant local businesses, including Winton, Eurotech Design and National Mini Storage. Winton needed a system that could efficiently consolidate data across all entities, Eurotech's legacy Oracle system lacked inventory control, while National Mini Storage's previous system, Reckon, couldn't handle the growing number of transactions, leading to manual workarounds for processes like bank feeds, accounts payable, and fixed asset registers.
These three particular businesses were all best-suited to MYOB Advanced Business. For Winton, we created a single, integrated setup that automated the consolidation of their 30+ assets and ultimately played a crucial role in its successful IPO listing in December 2021. The solution we created for Eurotech Design has significantly improved inventory management, with an accurate audit trail and streamlined processing - orders are now processed within minutes, reducing errors and enhancing the retail experience. As a result of our upgrade, National Mini Storage has improved cost control, reduced manual efforts, and allowed accurate five-year forecasting - which, in turn, keeps the bank happy.
If you’re interested in an ERP upgrade, let’s get a coffee and we can talk through what options could be best suited to your business.
