What makes your company different?
Select your software on that.

Off-the-shelf packages cover most of the work just fine. The ERP decision turns on the handful of processes where your company stands apart. Those are what we look for first.

ERP projects: from choice to go-live

Independent, with no licence or reseller interest. You can join at the selection, with a vendor already chosen, or on a project that has stalled.

SelectionImplementation
The process in view

Bottlenecks, exceptions, and the requirements that follow from them.

A substantiated choice

Demos on your own cases, the decision on a single page.

A buildable specification

Worked out per key user, in the language of the platform.

Go-live

Tested on processes, not on screens. Scope kept in check.

01 · Selection

Choosing what actually fits

First the process in view, then the requirements that genuinely follow. Vendors are compared on your exceptions, not on a feature list.

02 · Implementation

Making sure it fits your business

The vendor builds. We deliver the specification, protect the key users, test alongside them, and keep scope and budget explainable.

Implementation guidance

Over a decade of experience with ERP selection and implementation. Focused on SMEs in different industries.

“What a difference SupplyUp made in our ERP project! They took the lead with the implementation partner, coached the consultants, and perfectly filled the gaps in our own expertise. My advice to anyone undertaking an ERP project: don't do it without a partner like SupplyUp. It’s not a luxury, but an absolute necessity. A top-notch team!”

Hans Heijmans · CEO Knegt Tractors

The problem is rarely the software.

It's the process around it: handovers, exceptions and one file everything depends on. That's why we look at your organisation, its people and its culture first, before buying or building anything.

2The current ERP no longer fits, but nobody knows what should replace it.
3An implementation asks too much of key users and lacks ownership.

02 · Custom applications

Applications built to fit, in weeks

Whatever your ERP does not cover, we build alongside it. Within 48 hours there is a working version to base a go/no-go on, and the code stays yours.

In 48 hours you have a working prototype.

Not a production promise in 48 hours, but a working version you can base a solid go/no-go decision on.

  1. 1You describe the process.
  2. 2We sharpen the problem and the users, briefly.
  3. 3We build a working, clickable prototype.FREE
  4. 4You test it with the people who have to work with it.
  5. 5Only what proves itself gets built further.

Developing the application further after the prototype is always an option, and often leads to even better results.

Free · Working prototype within 48 hours. No upfront payment.

From €300 per month · Fixed monthly price, cancel monthly. The code stays yours.

No slides, just software.

Apps in use at manufacturers today, built on processes that were mapped first.

01 · Scope CompassLIVE

Maps processes, systems and scope before you choose or build an ERP.

ERP projects start with workshops and end with a scope nobody recognises. The reality lives in people's heads and in Excel. One environment mapping processes, systems and pain points together, clickable and updated live while you talk.

RESULT A scope that matches the shop floor, and discussions about facts instead of memories.

02 · StoringsdienstLIVE

Scheduling and tech-support for on-call service, with PIN login for the floor.

The on-call roster lived in one planner's Excel. Swaps went through chat messages, and the split of evening and weekend shifts was a recurring argument. Besides that, finding the right manual for a error-code was time-consuming. An app with the roster, approved swaps, and per-mechanic counters keeping the rotation visibly fair. PIN login so it works on the shop floor. And a AI integration that immediately finds the right steps per error-code.

RESULT No more roster spreadsheet, no more arguments about fairness, and the planner is done in seconds. The mechanics immediately see there next turn and have access to AI tech-support.

03 · RaceformLIVE

Training app for athletes: one plan through to race day, with an AI coach that knows your schedule and your data.

The training plan in one app, results in a second, nutrition in a third, and a coach who sees none of them. One place where the plan, the completed sessions and the nutrition come together, with a coach that answers on that basis rather than in general terms.

RESULT At any moment you can see whether you are ahead of or behind your own season, and what that means for race day.

“It’s incredible how quickly we went from an Excel file to a full-fledged app with even more features than we had originally envisioned.”

Certainty around your application

Integration

Works alongside your ERP, CRM and existing data sources rather than replacing them.

Ownership

Source code, data and application are yours. Set up from day one so you can take it all with you.

Maintenance

We host and maintain it, or you take it over completely. Your choice.

Security

Each app its own login, your data walled off, and clear agreements about hosting and AI use.

Frequently asked questions

Am I tied to anything?

No. Cancel monthly, and the code and data are yours. You can move on at any point.

Do I need an IT department?

No. We host and maintain everything; you don't have to do anything technical. Want to run it yourself later? We hand it over properly.

Who owns the code and the data?

You do. The setup is transferable from the start, with no vendor lock-in.

I already have an ERP. Does this fit alongside it?

Yes. The apps connect to your ERP rather than replacing it. Often a targeted app is the answer, not a new ERP.

“Built with AI” — is that reliable?

We build with AI as the tool and twelve years of domain knowledge as the client. Every release is tested with the people who use it; only what holds up moves on.

ONE POINT OF CONTACT

Extensive experience across a range of ERPs, and at home improving business processes with IT

I know your sector. My experience with BoMs, costings, planning and other business processes speaks for itself. Software implementations rarely fail on the technology; they fail on the people or the processes. That's why every engagement of mine starts with conversations with users about processes, not with the solution.

One person, from the first process conversation to a working solution. No handover between sales, consultant and developer.

“AI is my building partner, not my sales trick.”

Which process is in your way?

A few lines is enough. Within one working day you'll hear whether it suits a 48-hour prototype.
