ERP Implementation

Implementation is a complete process: pre-implementation analysis and process workshops, functional and technical design, system configuration and integrations, data migration, team training, plus testing and go-live. Timeline depends on production complexity and integration scope, but our predictable methodology with clear stages and milestones ensures full control over schedule and costs.

Because process complexity keeps growing: production scheduling, MRP planning, quality control, logistics. When processes are scattered across Excel, emails, and disparate systems, data silos and errors multiply. Epicor Kinetic brings finance, sales, purchasing, inventory, and production into one place – complete operational visibility in real time, realistic planning synchronized with the supply chain, and control over actual costs.

Unlike “universal” ERP systems that try to serve every industry the same way, Epicor Kinetic is a specialized manufacturing solution offering ready-made mechanisms tailored to production environments – without expensive, risky customizations. This means shorter implementation time, greater project predictability, and real support for business scaling.

Advanced MRP and APS planning optimizes inventory levels, eliminates overproduction, and lowers storage costs. The system tracks actual vs. planned costs in real time and analyzes variances at product, order, or customer level. You avoid downtime, urgent purchases, and constant schedule changes – production plans consider resource load, component availability, and customer priorities.

CPQ (Configure, Price, Quote) in Epicor Kinetic automates quote creation for configurable products. We define technical and cost rules, BOM structures, and calculations—the system generates accurate structure, routings, and pricing. Quoting time drops from days to hours, quote-to-order transition is seamless, and margin control is complete.

The cost structure depends on the project model. We price implementation services separately from licenses, infrastructure, and any additional integrations or extensions. This gives the client a clear view of the full investment from the start and shows exactly which elements are included in the implementation budget.

Yes. Many companies choose a phased implementation approach, for example starting with finance and warehouse operations, and then adding production, planning, or further integrations. This model helps reduce risk, spread the budget over time, and launch key areas faster, although the overall project timeline may then be longer.

Yes. We offer maintenance, development, and support: process optimization, functionality development, adaptation to changing business and regulatory needs. The system doesn’t “freeze” after go-live but evolves with your business: new modules, integrations, and improvements delivered continuously. We operate as an extension of your team.

We support integration testing (SIT) and user acceptance testing (UAT), prepare the organization for launch, and assist during go-live with rapid response to critical situations. We understand the impact of project decisions on operational continuity in manufacturing environments. Transparent methodology with clear stages, responsibilities, and regular reporting – full control over scope and priorities.

We don’t limit ourselves to standard configuration. We analyze how your organization works and recommend improvements that genuinely enhance efficiency and data quality – we treat ERP as a business tool, not just IT. We work end-to-end with experienced Epicor Kinetic consultants who manage projects in companies with high process and integration complexity. We tailor the system to real business needs.
