The challenge
Lumens Group, a mid-cap industrial company, operated with 12 different ERPs inherited from acquisitions. Inter-subsidiary order routing took 5 days on average, with an error rate above 8%. A single ERP migration would have cost £2.5M and 18 months.
Our approach
- 1Rather than an ERP migration, design of a routing platform connected to the 12 ERPs via API or email parsing.
- 2Classification + extraction agent that reads each order, identifies the source and target subsidiary, the SKUs.
- 3Automatic generation of transfer orders in the right target ERP.
- 4Real-time dashboard for operations, alerting on anomalies.
