Built Around Your Process, Not a Template

We start by learning how your team actually sells, manages orders, or runs operations — before touching a keyboard. The CRM reflects your workflow exactly as it is.

Process mapped before design begins

We shadow your team to understand real workflows

Custom fields, relationships, and data types

01

Process Mapping & Requirements

We shadow your team, map every step of your actual sales or operations process, and document it before designing anything.

Outcome: process map + requirements doc signed off

02

Data Architecture

Schema designed around your data model — not a generic CRM schema bent to fit. Custom fields, relationships, and migration plan.

03

Core Build

Core modules built first, add-ons added iteratively. Bi-weekly demos with your team in the loop throughout.

Outcome: working CRM your team can use in staging

The Challenge

Manufacturing company running operations across 5 disconnected tools — spreadsheets, a legacy ERP, a CRM, separate invoicing software, and a manual inventory system.

What We Built

Custom ERP consolidating all 5 tools — orders, inventory, production scheduling, invoicing, and CRM in one system. Full data migration from all 5 sources.

The problem

A sales team had outgrown generic CRM tools that did not match their pipeline stages or reporting needs. Data was scattered, pipeline visibility was poor, and reps spent more time on admin than selling.

The result

The team gained a single source of truth for every relationship and deal. Pipeline became fully visible, reporting was instant, and reps spent less time on data entry and more time closing.

  • Drag-and-drop visual sales pipeline with deal tracking
  • Workflow automation for follow-ups and tasks

Frequently asked questions

Salesforce and HubSpot are built for the median sales process. If yours is different — different stages, different data, different automations — you spend months configuring around their constraints and paying for features you never use. Custom means the CRM matches you, not the other way around. The total cost of ownership is often lower after year 2.

Yes — full data migration is included in every CRM project. We map your existing data structure to the new schema, clean duplicates, transform any mismatched fields, and run a parallel period where both systems are live before full cutover. Zero manual re-entry.

A core CRM (contacts, pipeline, activities, reports) takes 8–12 weeks. A full ERP replacing multiple tools takes 4–6 months. Timeline is driven by data complexity and integration count. We give you a fixed timeline estimate in the scoping call.

Yes — QuickBooks, Xero, and Sage integrations are standard. We build a bidirectional sync so invoices created in the CRM appear in your accounting software, and payment status flows back. No double entry.

We run a structured rollout: pilot with a small group first, then staged expansion to the full team. Training sessions are role-specific — sales reps get a different session than managers. We also produce written documentation and video walkthroughs.

A core custom CRM typically runs $30k–$60k, while a full ERP replacing multiple tools ranges from $80k to $200k+ depending on module count and integrations. Compared to per-seat Salesforce or HubSpot licensing, total cost of ownership is usually lower from year two onward — and you own the system outright with no recurring per-user fees.

Yes — you own 100% of the source code, database, and all data. We hand over the full Git repository, schema documentation, and deployment runbooks at project close. There's no vendor lock-in and no platform you can be priced out of, unlike off-the-shelf SaaS CRMs.
