Northline Operations
A modular ERP concept for production, purchasing and inventory
Why this product would exist.
Production planning, purchasing and stock information lived in separate files, making it difficult to see shortages, delays and work in progress.
A focused system instead of another layer of admin.
A modular browser-based ERP concept with production orders, inventory movements, supplier purchasing, exception alerts and management dashboards.
Start with the decisions, data and exceptions.
The first phase would map the users, current process, information sources, approval rules and difficult cases. The interface and architecture would then be designed around the smallest useful release rather than a long feature list.
