ERP & Business Applications
System integration & APIs
Map, design and make dependable the exchanges between applications: APIs, flows, reference data and consistency checks.
EN UNE PHRASE
Interfaces are where projects fail quietly.
THE PROBLEM
The situations that bring us in
- 01
The flows were built one at a time, with no overall documentation.
- 02
Data anomalies are spotted by users, not by the system.
- 03
The same data exists in several applications with different values.
- 04
Any change to one application triggers unexpected regressions elsewhere.
- 01THE PROBLEM
A set of heterogeneous exchanges that nobody holds a complete view of, nor knows the behaviour of when something fails.
- 02WHAT AXENEO DOES
Mapping of the flows and dependencies, definition of the interface contracts, API design, controls and replay mechanisms put in place.
- 03THE RESULT
Exchanges that are documented, contracted and supervised: anomalies are caught at source and handled without losing data.
What we do
Map & design
- Mapping of applications, flows and dependencies
- Interface contracts and API design
- Reference and master data management
- Choice of exchange modes: real time, batch, event-driven
Make dependable
- Consistency checks and reconciliation
- Handling of rejects, retries and replays
- Flow supervision and alerting
- End-to-end integration testing
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
Interoperability between organisations
Making systems belonging to different entities talk to each other calls for formalised exchange requirements and governance of the interface contracts.
Make shared reference data dependable
Define the source of truth, the propagation rules and the controls that keep applications consistent with one another.
