Operational data platform and ERP

market profile

  • text: Companies maintain finance, inventory, sales and other operational data across separate systems and spreadsheets.
  • text: Clidey combines an open-source data foundation with an ERP, assistant and documentation; individual modules can be introduced incrementally.

personas

  • title: Chief operating officer
    pains:
    • Sales orders, warehouse activity and financial records require manual handoffs
    • Replacing every existing system at once is disruptive
  • title: Head of data platform
    pains:
    • Operational data is fragmented across databases, warehouses and cloud apps
    • Teams struggle to understand lineage and shared business entities

message pillars

  • text: Build on existing systems.
  • text: Allow teams to extend their applications on common records.

objections

  • objection: An ERP replacement is too risky and disruptive.
    response: Scope an initial department and map existing systems; the site describes rolling out modules one at a time.
  • objection: Can the data model and permissions support our organization?
    response: Validate connectors, lineage, security and a representative workflow in a technical pilot.
  • objection: How much will deployment cost?
    response: Request a scoped proposal for the modules and systems involved, including implementation costs.
