Integration consulting

Connect systems instead of retyping data.

We make visible where data gets stuck between CRM, ERP, PPM and other systems, and develop an architecture that holds up. From a single interface to automation with AI.

Typical situations

When integration consulting pays off

In many companies, CRM, ERP, PPM and specialist applications work side by side. Data is copied, retyped or reconciled in Excel. That costs time and causes errors.

Data is retyped

Orders, times or customer data are moved by hand from one system to the next.

Interfaces have grown over time

Connections were built bit by bit. Nobody has an overview any more of what flows where.

Systems do not fit together

A new system is to be connected, but data models and processes differ.

Automation and AI should help

You want to automate recurring processes and use AI sensibly, but do not know where to start.

Our consulting approach

Five phases to connected systems

We start with your goals and your system landscape. Only then do we turn to the technology of the integration.

01

Analyse

We create a map of your systems and data flows and find media breaks and duplicate data entry.

02

Design

Together we develop a target architecture: which data is leading where, and how the systems are connected.

03

Prioritise

Which connection saves the most time? We assess by benefit, risk and effort.

04

Implement

We support building the interfaces, whether direct, via middleware or with Power Automate.

05

Measure and improve

Monitoring shows whether data flows reliably. Further automation and AI build on this.

Results

What you get from the consulting

Depending on your situation, you receive tangible results on which you can base confident decisions.

System map

An overview of which systems hold which data and how they are connected today.

Data flows and master data

Which data flows in which direction and which system is leading in each case.

Target architecture

A sustainable solution for your interfaces, matching your infrastructure and budget.

Prioritised roadmap

Which connections come first, with effort and expected benefit.

Automation potential

Where processes can be automated and where AI makes a real contribution.

Operating concept

Monitoring, error handling and responsibilities, so that the integration runs reliably day to day.

Our principles

How we advise

Five principles guide every consulting project, plus a sixth: we only recommend what suits your system landscape.

Goals first

The starting point is the benefit, for example less manual work, faster closing or more reliable data.

Processes before interfaces

We understand the process first, then we build the connection. Otherwise an error is just transferred faster.

Build on what exists

Existing systems and interfaces are taken into account. We only build new where it adds value.

Step by step

We start with the connection that saves the most time and build from there.

Measurable results

Monitoring and key figures show whether data flows reliably and how much effort is saved.

Open to any technology

Direct interface, middleware such as our Sugarblaster or Power Automate: we recommend what suits your landscape.

Your starting point

Assess yourself first, then talk

If you would like your own assessment first, start with one of our online checks. Anonymous and without sign-up.

Online checks

In two minutes you see where things get stuck between sales and delivery.

Systems we connect

We know the common systems from projects and find the right way to connect them.

Working together

How we get started

We do not offer fixed packages. The scope and form of the consulting depend on your system landscape.

01

Initial consultation

Free of charge: we listen and get to know your situation.

02

Scoping

Whether a workshop, interviews or an on-site analysis makes sense, we decide together.

03

Proposal

You receive a proposal for approach and effort that fits your landscape.

04

Consulting

We work closely with business departments and IT and document the results transparently.

05

Implementation on request

On request, we also build the interfaces, all from a single source.

Time tracking straight into SAP

At a major electronics retailer, project times from OpenText PPM were prepared by hand for billing in SAP. Together we redesigned time tracking and connected it directly to SAP.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions about integration consulting

Is your advice vendor-neutral?

Yes. Whether a direct interface, middleware or low-code with Power Automate: we recommend the solution that suits your systems and your budget.

Which systems can you connect?

Among others CRM, ERP such as SAP, PPM, Jira, shop, telephony and BI. What the connection looks like in each case is clarified in the analysis.

Where does AI really help?

Where recurring decisions are based on good data, for example when assessing enquiries or making forecasts. The prerequisite is clean, connected data.

What does integration consulting cost?

That depends on the scope. After the free initial consultation, you receive a proposal that fits your system landscape. We do not offer fixed packages.

Do you also handle the implementation?

Yes, on request, including operation and monitoring. But you can just as well implement the results with your own team.

How long does consulting take?

That depends on your situation and the scope. A first system map can often be created quickly; we support larger projects over several stages.
