Custom ERP development

Inventory, billing, accounting and reporting for traders, distributors and manufacturers, built around how your business already works. We run our own ERP, Tradeloom, in production — so this isn't a domain we're learning on your budget.

When this is the right call

Signs you need this

The spreadsheets have become the system

Stock in one sheet, invoices in another, the accounts somewhere else. Every month-end is a reconciliation exercise, and the numbers rarely agree the first time.

Your software doesn't leave the office

Billing runs on one desktop machine. Checking stock from the warehouse or a ledger from home means phoning whoever is sitting at it.

Packaged ERP means changing how you work

The big systems are priced and configured for a larger business. Bending your process to fit them costs more than fitting the software to your process.

Scope

What's included

  • Inventory management with FIFO or weighted-average stock valuation
  • Billing and invoicing around your own documents and workflow
  • Accounting modelled on double-entry bookkeeping
  • Reporting across stock, sales and accounts
  • Role-based access, so each person sees and changes only what their job needs
  • Phased delivery — a working core first, then module by module
  • Hosted on AWS and run by us, if you'd rather not operate it yourself
  • Or a one-time handover of the full codebase, admin layer included

How it runs

  1. Map how you work today

    Before any screens, we write down how stock moves, how bills are raised and how the books are closed. The system is shaped around that, not around a generic template.

  2. A working core first

    Phase one is the part your business can't run without, in use on real data. Further modules follow in phases, each one live before the next begins.

  3. Decide hosted or owned up front

    Either we host and run it, or you take the full codebase, admin layer included, at handover. It's agreed at the start because it shapes how the system is built and deployed.

Questions

Things people ask first

How long does it take to build a custom ERP?

It depends on how many modules you need and how far your processes differ from the usual, so we don't quote a figure before scoping. What we can promise is the shape: a working core first, in use on your real data, then further modules in phases — so you're running on the system well before every module is finished.

Do we own the ERP, or do you host it?

Your choice. We can host and run the system for you, or hand over the full codebase — including the admin layer — as a one-time handover, after which it's yours to host and change as you like.

Will it replace our existing accounting software?

It can do either. Accounting is one of the modules we build, modelled on double-entry bookkeeping, so it can replace a separate package. If your accounts are staying where they are, we scope an integration instead and agree which system owns which records before anything is built.

What happens to our existing data?

Bringing it across is part of the project, not an afterthought. We agree which records move — items, parties, opening stock and balances — and check them against your current system before you switch, so the new system starts from numbers you recognise.
