ERP consulting that provides clarity.
The safe way to better system decisions
ERP projects are not a sure-fire success. Unclear requirements, time pressure, too many providers. We bring order to the chaos – with independent ERP consulting, honest sparring, and a clear goal: the right ERP for your business. Not for sales.
Typical hurdles in ERP projects
A clear framework is usually lacking right from the start. In our experience, it is always the same hurdles that slow projects down or prevent them from getting off the ground.
Lack of overview of processes
It is often not clear how processes actually work. Without a proper inventory, many things remain vague - including the requirements for the system.
System selection without technical objectives
If systems are selected without clear objectives, the decision is often based on functions rather than requirements. The result is solutions that do not suit your company.
Unclear approach to digital change
Many people know that they need to become more digital, but don't know where to start. Without a clear approach, the topic quickly gets lost among other priorities.
Knowledge gap in the ERP context
Terms, concepts, market overview. The necessary depth to ask the right questions or make decisions with confidence is often lacking.
Internal overload
ERP projects run alongside everyday business. Internal capacity is rarely sufficient to prepare topics properly or consistently.
Lack of comparability on the market
Offers appear similar, the basis for decision-making is weak. Without a structured comparison, much remains a matter of feeling.
Our services in the ERP environment
Many companies face similar questions in the ERP context: Which system suits our goals? Where do we really stand today? How do we implement the whole thing properly?
This is exactly where our ERP consulting comes in.
We work with you to identify your technical requirements and prioritize your goals. We then compare suitable systems in a structured manner and create a basis for decision-making that is transparent and vendor-independent.
We work with you to structure the implementation, ensuring realistic steps, clear responsibilities, and clear process mapping. In doing so, we take internal resources into account and create the basis for a system that works in everyday life.
We help you plan migrations strategically, transfer data in a structured manner, and mitigate risks. With tools such as synQup, we have the right tools to efficiently implement what is often a complex migration process. This allows you to ensure a smooth transition without unnecessary interruptions to your daily business.
When ERP projects get out of hand, you need a clear view from the outside. We analyze the situation, identify causes, and help bring the project back under control. Fast, pragmatic, and solution-oriented.
We assume operational responsibility in ERP projects, either in full or in specific areas. With experience in management, coordination, cutover planning, and test management, we ensure smooth implementation and clear communication throughout the project.
Technology only brings real added value when processes are set up sensibly. We analyze existing workflows, identify weak points, and help you get the most out of your ERP system.
We review existing systems and contracts for efficiency, appropriateness, and future viability. This provides you with an objective assessment of your ERP landscape as a basis for improvements or renegotiations.
Good ERP consulting determines the success of a project.
ERP projects not only affect software, but also the processes and structures in the entire company. Those who make unprepared decisions risk expensive detours. Our ERP consulting brings structure to complex decisions, creates clarity and ensures realisation with a realistic view of what is feasible.
This is why companies choose us.
360° support
We consider ERP in its overall context. Our consulting services take into account not only the system itself, but also related areas - from infrastructure and interfaces to e-commerce and logistics processes.
Central contact person
You will have a dedicated contact person who will oversee your project from start to finish. This helps you avoid interface problems, coordination errors, and unnecessary friction losses.
In-house experience and expertise
Our ERP experts bring with them in-depth ERP expertise from various systems and industries. Complex requirements, integrations, and customizations are part of our daily business.
Funding and financing
ERP projects are often eligible for subsidies. We review your options, assist you with the application process, and regularly obtain subsidies for you even during ongoing operations.
An ERP project rarely fails due to the software, but almost always due to a lack of preparation. With structured ERP consulting, we take out the risk and ensure that decisions are well-founded and comprehensible.
How we work in ERP projects
A clear process is crucial for success. Our ERP consulting follows a structured approach that is orientated towards your needs. We create orientation in the project, provide a basis for decisions and keep an eye on the goal: a system that works professionally, technically and organisationally.

Any questions? - FAQ
What distinguishes product-neutral ERP consulting from other services?
Product-neutral ERP consulting does not pursue any sales interests. It is independent of manufacturers and is based solely on the company's objectives and requirements. Recommendations are based on facts, not commissions.
What types of ERP consulting are there?
ERP consulting can take place in several areas. These include strategic advice on the direction of the project, the selection of a suitable system, the introduction or migration, operational project management, the optimisation of existing systems and technical advice on interfaces or data structures. The appropriate focus always depends on the situation and the objective of the project.
What makes a good ERP consultancy?
Good consulting puts the company at the centre, not the system. It analyses processes, creates clarity about requirements and supports decisions with experience and a realistic view of feasibility.
Why is it so difficult to find the right ERP software?
Many systems appear similar at first glance. In practice, however, there are major differences in terms of functional depth, flexibility and long-term fit. Without clear requirements and a structured comparison, it is difficult to make an informed decision.
Why does independent ERP consulting make sense?
Independent advice brings clarity to complex decisions. It helps to recognise risks, realistically evaluate systems and find solutions that are a technical and strategic fit for the company.
Can ERP consulting optimise existing systems?
Yes, many systems are not used efficiently or are set up incorrectly. A targeted analysis shows where processes can be improved, settings adjusted or additional functions utilised.
What is the difference between ERP consulting for SMEs and corporate groups?
The requirements are similar, but the framework conditions are different. SMEs often need pragmatic solutions with low overheads, while corporate groups require more coordination, control and integration.
What happens after the ERP consultation?
This depends entirely on the project objective. After the consultation, we accompany the implementation if required or provide a clear basis for decision-making for internal teams. All results are documented in such a way that they can be used directly.
What are the costs of ERP consulting?
The costs depend on the scope of the project, the depth of the analysis and the desired range of services. In many cases, subsidies are possible. In the initial consultation, we clarify the framework to make the costs transparent.
How can I make an appointment for an ERP consultation?
Use the contact form or book an appointment. We will get back to you promptly and discuss the next steps in person.
Will you also support us if we already have Xentral in use?
Yes, many answers require support with extensions, process adjustments or complex integrations. As an Xentral partner, we have experience with existing Xentral instances and help to stabilise systems, optimise processes and implement new requirements.
