DockerERP software that fits your operations
ERP (enterprise resource planning) software brings core business processes — finance, purchasing, inventory, manufacturing, sales orders, projects and HR — into one connected system with one set of data. ERP development means building that system custom, or implementing and extending a platform such as Odoo, Microsoft Dynamics 365 or SAP so it matches how your company operates.
We help growing and mid-sized companies move off spreadsheets and disconnected tools, extend ERPs that no longer fit, and integrate ERP data with e-commerce, CRM and reporting.
Which ERP approach is right for you?
| Approach | Best for | Watch out for |
|---|---|---|
| Custom ERP | Unique operations, multi-entity or industry-specific processes, no licence fees | Needs clear scope and long-term ownership plan |
| Odoo | SMBs and mid-market wanting modular, open-source ERP with fast setup | Heavy customization can complicate upgrades |
| Microsoft Dynamics 365 | Organizations on Microsoft 365 / Azure needing enterprise features | Licensing cost and partner dependency |
| SAP (integration) | Large enterprises already running SAP | We integrate and extend; core SAP work stays with certified partners |

ERP development cost
| Project | Scope | Timeline | Typical budget (USD) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Odoo implementation & customization | Core modules, custom features, integrations | 2–4 months | $20k – $80k |
| ERP integration program | Connecting ERP to 2–5 systems | 1–3 months | $15k – $60k |
| Custom ERP (core modules) | Finance, inventory, purchasing, sales, reporting | 5–10 months | $100k – $300k+ |
Ranges are typical for projects of this kind and are shared to help you budget. Your fixed quote comes after a free discovery call and depends on scope, integrations and timeline.
Signs you have outgrown your current system
- Month-end close takes days of spreadsheet work
- Stock levels in the system rarely match the warehouse
- Orders are re-typed between the online store, CRM and accounting
- Nobody has a real-time view of cash, margin or inventory
- Adding a new location, entity or currency is painful
- Your current software is out of support or can no longer be upgraded
ERP integration patterns
| Pattern | How it works | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Real-time API sync | Systems call each other’s APIs as events happen | Orders, stock and pricing that must be current |
| Scheduled batch sync | Data exchanged on a schedule (e.g. every 15 minutes or nightly) | Large volumes, reporting, less time-critical data |
| Middleware / iPaaS | A central integration layer routes and transforms data | Many systems and complex mappings |
| Event streaming | Systems publish and subscribe to business events | High-volume, decoupled architectures |
We choose the simplest pattern that meets the business need and add monitoring and alerts so failed syncs are caught immediately.
How to avoid ERP project failure
- Fix the process before the software. Automating a broken process only makes mistakes faster.
- Phase the rollout. Start with the modules that deliver the most value and the least risk.
- Limit heavy customization of platforms. Extend through supported mechanisms so upgrades stay possible.
- Invest in data migration. Plan multiple trial migrations and reconciliation.
- Train and support users. Adoption determines whether the ERP delivers its value.
A typical ERP implementation timeline
ERP projects touch every department, so they are delivered in phases. A mid-sized implementation usually follows this pattern:
| Phase | Typical duration | Key activities |
|---|---|---|
| Discovery & process mapping | 2–4 weeks | Workshops per department, current vs future process, gap analysis |
| Solution design | 2–3 weeks | Data model, module configuration, integrations, reports, roles |
| Build & configure (in sprints) | 8–20 weeks | Configuration, custom modules, integrations, demos every two weeks |
| Data migration & testing | 3–6 weeks | Trial migrations, user acceptance testing, parallel runs for finance |
| Training & go-live | 2–3 weeks | Role-based training, cut-over plan, hypercare support |
Typical durations for planning purposes. Your written estimate sets the real timeline after discovery.
Smaller businesses implementing a few modules on Odoo can be live in two to three months; multi-entity or manufacturing projects take longer.
ERP data migration checklist
Clean, complete opening data is what makes the first month on a new ERP go smoothly. We work through this list with your finance and operations teams:
- Chart of accounts and opening balances, reconciled to your last closed period
- Customers and suppliers with payment terms, tax settings and contacts
- Products, units of measure, prices and bills of materials
- Opening stock by warehouse and location, valued correctly
- Open sales orders, purchase orders, invoices and bills
- Fixed assets and depreciation schedules
- User roles and approval limits
Historical transactions are usually archived and kept accessible for reporting rather than migrated line by line — it is faster, cheaper and less risky.
Training, go-live and hypercare
Go-live is where months of work either pay off or create chaos. We plan it like a launch:
- Role-based training — short sessions for each team using their own data in a training environment.
- Cut-over plan — a written hour-by-hour plan with owners, checks and a rollback option.
- Hypercare — two to four weeks of priority support after go-live, with daily check-ins.
- First month-end close — we support finance through the first close on the new system.
After hypercare, ongoing support and improvements continue on a monthly plan. ERP projects often pair with CRM development and eCommerce integration so orders and customers flow automatically.
Reporting and dashboards from your ERP
One of the biggest benefits of a single ERP is reporting you can trust without spreadsheets. We set up the reports each team needs from day one:
| Team | Key reports and KPIs |
|---|---|
| Leadership | Revenue, gross margin, cash position, budget vs actual |
| Finance | P&L, balance sheet, aged receivables and payables, cash-flow forecast |
| Sales | Orders by customer, product and region; backlog; average order value |
| Inventory | Stock value, slow-moving items, reorder alerts, stock accuracy |
| Purchasing | Supplier lead times, on-time delivery, open purchase orders |
| Production | Work-order status, capacity use, scrap and yield |
For deeper analysis, ERP data can be fed into Power BI, Looker Studio or a data warehouse.
Governance that keeps ERP projects on track
ERP projects affect finance, operations, purchasing and often every warehouse or site. Clear governance is the single biggest protection against delays:
- An executive sponsor who can settle disagreements between departments quickly.
- Process owners for each area — finance, inventory, purchasing, production — who sign off on how their process will work.
- A design authority that decides when to change the process to fit the system and when to customise the system.
- A cut-over plan with dates, responsibilities, rehearsals and a clear go/no-go decision.
Customisation decisions deserve special care. Each customisation adds testing and upgrade effort for years, so we recommend standard functionality wherever the difference is not a genuine competitive advantage.
How to evaluate an ERP partner
- Experience with your chosen platform and with businesses of similar size and complexity
- A clear data migration method with trial loads and reconciliation
- Realistic timelines that include testing, training and hypercare
- A plan for integrations with your eCommerce, CRM, payroll and banking systems
- Honest advice about when not to customise
- Support arrangements after go-live, including month-end and year-end

ERP terms explained
| Term | Meaning |
|---|---|
| General ledger | The core accounting record of all financial transactions |
| Bill of materials | The list of components and quantities needed to make a product |
| MRP | Material requirements planning — calculating what to buy or make, and when |
| Three-way match | Checking purchase order, goods receipt and supplier invoice agree before payment |
| Cut-over | The planned switch from the old system to the new one |
| Hypercare | A period of intensive support immediately after go-live |
Signs your ERP project is drifting
- Process owners have not signed off designs, but development has started anyway
- The list of customisations keeps growing with no review of business value
- Data migration trial loads have been postponed
- Users have not seen the system before user acceptance testing
- The go-live date is fixed but testing time keeps shrinking
Each of these can be corrected if caught early. A monthly steering review that looks at these warning signs honestly is one of the cheapest forms of project insurance.
When we join a project that is already drifting, we start with a short health check: reviewing decisions, open risks, data readiness and the test plan, then agreeing a realistic recovery plan with the steering group. Recovering early is almost always cheaper than pushing ahead and fixing problems after go-live, when they affect invoices, stock and payroll.
Throughout, decisions and risks are logged so new stakeholders can catch up quickly.
Why choose us for ERP
