Manufacturing · AI · ERP consulting

Built around your process. Not a box you bend around.

Off-the-shelf ERPs make you bend around the software. We do the opposite: we learn how your company actually runs, then build automation that fits it, delivered through Pulse, an AI-ready layer over the systems you already use that monitors and manages your whole company in one place.

The problem

You didn't outgrow your process. You outgrew your tools.

The system doesn't fit

You bought the platform everyone recommended, then built a dozen spreadsheets and workarounds to make it usable. The software won; your process lost.

Nothing talks to anything

ERP, accounting, CRM, scheduling, GPS, email. Each holds a piece of the truth. Someone re-keys data between them every single day.

Decisions wait on data

Leadership spends 10–15 hours a week just gathering numbers before they can decide anything. By the time the report is ready, it's already stale.

The approach

We're not selling you a box. We're building around your business.

Out-of-the-box solutions never quite fit, so most of your team ends up working for the software. We flip that. The software works for you.

  1. STEP 01

    We learn how you actually run

    Before a line of code, we sit with your team and map the real process, including the undocumented parts that make it work. No assumptions, no template.

  2. STEP 02

    We connect what you already have

    Pulse plugs into your existing ERP, accounting, CRM, scheduling and field systems. You keep your tools. We make them finally work together.

  3. STEP 03

    We automate around your process

    We build automation that complements how you work and improves it, never forcing you into workarounds to satisfy the software.

  4. STEP 04

    We make it AI-ready

    With clean, connected data flowing through Pulse, AI can actually help: surfacing decisions, flagging exceptions, and handling the routine end to end.

The product

Meet Pulse

Pulse is how we deliver the fit: a connection dashboard that ties your whole company together without replacing what already works. It connects your systems, watches them, and runs the routine for you, the operating layer that finally makes everything behave like one.

One screen, every system

ERP, QuickBooks, CRM, scheduling, GPS, inbound email: one live picture instead of ten logins.

Live, not month-end

Throughput, on-time delivery, labor, margin, exceptions, all current, all in one place.

Runs the busywork

Bill matching, reconciliation, status updates and B2B data exchange run with no human touch.

AI-ready foundation

Clean, connected data means AI can flag what needs you and handle what doesn't.

What it changes

Hours back. Decisions faster. Routine work gone.

10–15 hrs/ week

Senior leadership, freed

In companies of 10–20 people, we've cut the data-collection and decision-prep load on senior leadership by 10–15 hours every week.

100%automated

Mid-level data work

For mid-level roles drowning in data collection, we've fully automated the gathering, cleaning, and reporting, so they manage exceptions, not spreadsheets.

0manual re-keys

B2B connections

Large data flows and business-to-business connections run completely hands-off. Data moves between partners and systems automatically.

The math

What is leadership's time actually worth?

In most companies, your highest-potential people produce the most valuable data — and lose the most hours collecting it by hand. Drag the sliders to see what that time is worth back to leadership.

Our work

Real systems, running in production.

Three operators, three very different businesses, one philosophy: build around the process, connect what exists, automate the rest.

Pharma & Contract Packaging

The plant that runs on Pulse

A mid-size contract packaging & pharma manufacturer was stitching its shop floor, labor, scheduling and sales data together by hand. We connected every source into one live operating picture, then automated the data collection that used to eat leadership's week.

  • Live hourly production & OEE from the floor
  • Automated labor-vs-schedule reconciliation
  • One dashboard replacing a dozen manual reports

Client anonymized at their request.

HVAC & Field Service

A custom ERP for a field contractor

A Michigan HVAC contractor was paying ServiceTitan-tier prices for software that still didn't fit field work. We built an owned ERP around their actual workflow, from builder-synced scheduling to a GPS hours reconciler to an AP ingestor that posts vendor bills straight to accounting.

  • Builder schedules auto-imported, no re-keying
  • GPS hours reconciled against claimed hours
  • PDF bills matched & posted with no human touch

Performance Tuning & Parts

Quoting and ordering, run by an AI assistant

A performance tuning shop ran two disconnected surfaces: a booking portal where every quote waited on a manual consultation, and a multi-vendor parts marketplace shipping direct from independent sellers. We turned vehicle-and-goal intake into instant itemized quotes, wired marketplace orders into one ERP, and gave the office an MCP-powered assistant over bookings, vehicle history, and dyno results.

  • Instant itemized quotes from vehicle + goal, not a callback
  • Marketplace orders post to one ERP, vendor POs routed automatically
  • MCP assistant triages bookings and drafts quotes in plain language

Who you work with

30 years on the floor and in the stack.

You don't get a sales engineer and a handoff. You get the two people who've actually run plants and built the systems.

A

Andy

Pharma Manufacturing · 20 years

Two decades on the floor of regulated pharmaceutical manufacturing. Andy knows what high-stakes, audited production actually demands day to day, and exactly why generic ERPs break the moment they hit a real line.

M

Michael

Manufacturing + IT · 10 + 10 years

Ten years running manufacturing operations, then ten building the software behind them. Michael is fluent in both the shop floor and the system architecture, so nothing gets lost in translation between the two.

Hands-on from discovery to deployment. No sales engineers, no handoff, no offshore team you never meet.

How we engage

You'll know the shape of it before you commit.

01

Discovery call

A 30-minute conversation about how you actually run. No pitch deck, no obligation. We listen for where the systems and the people are working too hard.

02

Process map + fixed proposal

We map your real workflow and come back with a fixed-scope plan: exactly what we'll automate, the order we'll do it, and the price. You approve before anything is built.

03

Build & implement in milestones

We deliver in working increments, not a big-bang launch. Each milestone is live and useful on its own, so value shows up in weeks.

Fixed-scope, milestone-based pricing. No retainers, no per-seat lock-in. You own what we build.

Questions

The things buyers actually ask.

Do we have to replace our ERP?

No. That's the whole point. Pulse connects to what you already run and makes those systems work together. We rip-and-replace nothing unless something is genuinely holding you back.

How long until we see value?

Weeks, not quarters. We deliver in milestones, and the first one is live and useful on its own. The routine data work is usually the first thing to get automated.

What does it cost?

Fixed-scope and milestone-based. After the discovery call and process map, you get a plan with an exact price before any build starts. No retainers, no per-seat fees.

We're only 10–20 people. Is this overkill?

That's our sweet spot. Smaller teams feel the data-collection load the hardest because it lands on a few senior people. That's exactly where automating it frees up the most.

Is our data secure, and do we own what you build?

Your data stays in your systems. Pulse reads and coordinates across them rather than hoarding a copy, and you own the automation and the dashboard we build for you.

What if our process changes later?

Because we build around your process instead of forcing you into a template, changes are adjustments rather than rebuilds. That's the advantage of an owned solution over off-the-shelf software.

Let's find the 15 hours hiding in your week.

Tell us where your systems don't connect and where your team keeps re-doing work by hand. We'll show you what Pulse could automate, starting with a no-pitch discovery call.
