Your ERP should work
for the business you run today.

Most SMB ERP implementations are configured for the business the vendor imagined — not the one you actually operate. The diagnostic identifies the gaps. The follow-through closes them.

Common Entry Points

When SMBs reach out about their ERP.

The ERP went live 12+ months ago and teams still work around it

Configuration doesn't reflect how the business actually operates

Reporting requires manual post-processing before anyone trusts it

Integrations between ERP and other systems break on updates

Data quality issues create reconciliation burdens every month

Nobody is sure which modules are configured correctly and which aren't

What Changes

What the ERP engagement covers.

Audit your ERP configuration against actual business workflows — not against vendor best practices

Identify the specific configuration, adoption, and integration issues reducing the system's value

Reconfigure modules, workflows, and reporting that were rushed during initial implementation

Build or repair integrations between your ERP and CRM, financial tools, and operational systems

Deliver a prioritized roadmap so fixes happen in the right sequence with the right expectations

Why This Is Different

Big firms send junior consultants with a playbook. Freelancers know one platform. This engagement covers the full stack — ERP, CRM, FMS, and the integrations between them — because most ERP problems are actually cross-system problems.

Platforms

ERP platforms Blake works with.

NetSuite

Configuration audit, workflow optimization, reporting reconfiguration, SuiteScript customization, and integration repair.

Business Central

Module reconfiguration, reporting layer fixes, data migration, Power BI integration, and adoption improvement.

Eatec

Food service and inventory management ERP — configuration, data migration, reporting, and GL integration.

Common ERP questions.

Do you do full ERP implementations?

The engagement typically starts with a diagnostic that determines whether you need a new implementation or a repair of the one you have. Most SMBs don't need a new system — they need the existing one configured properly. When full implementations are warranted, Blake manages the project end to end.

What ERP platforms do you work with?

NetSuite and Business Central are the primary platforms. Eatec for food service and inventory management. The supporting integration and reporting tools depend on your stack — Workato, Boomi, Tableau, and various cloud platforms.

How is this different from hiring a big consulting firm?

No agency overhead. No hand-off to junior staff. No twelve-week discovery before the first recommendation. You work directly with Blake — one advisor who understands the systems, the finance layer, and the operational reality of running an SMB.
