Use Cases
These are the questions we hear most often in the field. Some are answered today by products already running; others depend on how your data is structured. A short assessment tells you which is which in your case.
In ERP projects the real issue is not the number of reports, but the number of questions that have no answer. Below are the questions we meet most often in six areas, together with how they are answered today.
Questions are asked in plain language and turned into a validated query; the recurring ones are attached to a dashboard and a threshold alert.
Roadmap Flagging work orders at risk of delay in advance, and prioritising them by cause.
The deviation between the lead time in the system and the actual one can be turned into a report, listing the materials where the gap is widest.
Sales questions can be asked in plain language; the ones followed regularly move onto a dashboard with period comparisons.
The tables come from existing reports. Whether “why did it fall” can be answered depends on the level of detail your cost data is kept at; the assessment says so plainly.
Duplicates and inconsistencies in part data are surfaced; description and class suggestions are put to the engineer for approval.
Roadmap Writing approved suggestions into PDM and the ERP automatically — only through an approval flow.
Indicators are collected on one dashboard, an alert goes out when a threshold is crossed, and reports can be scheduled by e-mail.
The questions here are examples — not customer results or references. If yours is not on the list, ask: we will tell you plainly whether it can be answered and what data it would take.
