ERP & Business Applications
Business applications
Design and evolve the applications that carry a process specific to the business, keeping their integration with the foundation as a starting requirement.
EN UNE PHRASE
The standard covers 80% of the need. The rest decides adoption.
THE PROBLEM
The situations that bring us in
- 01
The business-critical process lives in shared spreadsheets.
- 02
Older custom applications are understood by only one or two people.
- 03
Each application has its own reference data, its own identifiers, its own rules.
- 04
The tool exists but nobody uses it: usability was never addressed.
- 01THE PROBLEM
A differentiating process the standard does not cover, operated today outside the information system.
- 02WHAT AXENEO DOES
Functional scoping, user experience design, development or configuration, integration with the reference data and support through deployment.
- 03THE RESULT
An application that is genuinely used, integrated with the application foundation, documented and maintainable over time.
What we do
Design
- Functional scoping and user journeys
- Application architecture and data model
- Design of interfaces and business screens
- Integration with reference data and with the ERP
Make it last
- Modernisation of existing applications
- Reduction and rationalisation of custom code
- Application support and evolutive maintenance
- Continuous improvement driven by actual use
The ERP & Business Applications method
This domain sits within the pillar’s overall method.
- 01
Scope the processes
The target process is defined before the tool. Business rules, exceptions and volumes are documented — that is what determines the real effort.
- 02
Choose with eyes open
The evaluation covers real coverage of the requirements, the integration effort, the cost of ownership and whether the choice can be sustained.
- 03
Design within the standard
Every departure from the standard is examined: the real need, the alternative, the cost of maintaining it. Custom development is an informed decision, not a default.
- 04
Secure the data
Data migration is treated as a workstream in its own right: perimeter, rules, trial runs, reconciliation and controls.
- 05
Integrate and validate
Interfaces are mapped and tested end to end. Functional validation and regression testing govern the go-live decision.
- 06
Keep it alive
Support, evolutive maintenance and continuous improvement: the value of an ERP is mostly built after go-live.
USE CASES
Where we step in
Structure a quoting process
Replace manual quoting with an application integrated with the ERP: centralised calculation rules, faster quotes, more dependable estimates.
Take a critical process out of the spreadsheet
Traceability, rights, controls and history: what a shared file cannot provide.
