Independent ERP & AI consultants
Technology decisions that answer to you not to a vendor's sales target.
Around 70% of digital transformations fall short of their goals. Usually it’s not the technology it’s choosing it before the business problem is understood. We fix the order: your process first, the right system second.

Where should you start?
Tell us the situation you're in.
Most people arrive here mid-problem. Pick the one that sounds like you
and we’ll take you straight to how we’d help.
"Our ERP is holding us back."
You’re outgrowing spreadsheets or a legacy system, or a past implementation stalled. You need it chosen and delivered right this time.
"We want to use AI properly."
Past the hype, you want to know where AI, BI or automation genuinely pays off in your operation, and where it doesn’t.
"We need a better online presence."
Your website or store isn’t converting, or isn’t connected to the systems behind it. You want the front end and back office to work as one.
Why “process-first” matters
Most projects fail because the technology is chosen first.
A vendor sells you a platform, then everyone spends 18 months bending the business to fit it. We work the other way round understand how you actually operate, then select technology that fits. It’s slower to start and far cheaper to finish

#1 cause
tech-first, not process-first

01
Understand
We map how your business really runs – not how a system diagram says it should

Design
We fix the process first, removing the friction technology can’t.
03
Select
Only then do we recommend systems – objectively, on fit alone.
03
Deliver
We stay through implementation so value actually lands.
What we do

what's right for you.

Generative & conversational AI, Power BI, and process automation with measurable ROI.

Our independence
How we're paid, in plain writing.
Today we hold no vendor partnerships, resale agreements or commissions. If that ever changes, you’ll know before you decide and it will never change what we recommend. Read the commitment we put in every engagement.
Our test, every time:
“Would our recommendation be the same if there were no commission?”
If the answer is ever no, we don’t take it.

Our promise
What we guarantee in writing.
Every engagement is backed by four commitments. If we ever fall short on an agreed deliverable, we put it right no quibbling.
01
Fixed, written scope
You agree the work and the price up front. No surprise invoices, no scope creep you didn’t sign off.
02
Senior people, start to finish
The specialist you meet is the one who does the work no junior hand-off after you sign.
03
Independent advice, always
We recommend what’s right for you including telling you when the right move is to spend nothing.
04
Fit for purpose, or we fix it
If an agreed deliverable doesn’t do what we scoped, we put it right. That’s the guarantee.
The people you’ll work with
Senior specialists, not a sales desk.
You’re buying expertise – so you should know exactly whose expertise it is. No junior hand-offs, no account manager between you and the person doing the work.
Straight answers
The questions buyers actually ask.
Are you really independent if you might take commissions?
Today we hold no vendor partnerships or commissions at all you pay us for advice, and it answers only to you. We keep the door open to future arrangements only where they wouldn’t change our recommendation, and we’d disclose any commission to you in writing before you decide. Our full commitment is on the Independence page.
How long does an ERP selection or implementation take
Selection typically runs 6–12 weeks; implementation depends heavily on scope and how clean your processes and data are. Our first job is usually to give you a realistic, honest timeline not the optimistic one a vendor would.
What does an engagement cost?
We work to fixed, written scopes so you’re never surprised by the invoice. After a short (free) discovery call we’ll propose a defined piece of work with a fixed price or a clear day-rate range. Unclear pricing is the top frustration buyers report so we don’t do it. See what we charge →
Do you work with our existing IT team
Yes, most of our work is alongside in-house teams, not instead of them. We’re there to bring independent expertise and capacity, then hand over cleanly so you’re not dependent on us.
Which ERP or AI tool do you recommend?
Whichever fits your business that’s the point of being independent. We regularly assess SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle NetSuite, Odoo, Salesforce and others against your specific requirements rather than a partnership.
