Our Proven Process for Distribution ERP Implementations
Assessment & Planning
Implementations can be tricky. ERP software is expensive. So, don’t forget the map, and don’t forget the crew. Together, we navigate your business landscape with a captain’s precision, mapping out every critical checkpoint to understand your unique needs.
Configuration, Customization & Testing
Testing isn’t a checkbox for us; it’s a sea trial. Before we hand you the helm, we run your unique Prophet 21 environment through rigorous real-world scenarios in a sandbox environment. We push it, stress it, and make sure it performs even if your business enters troubled waters.
Data Cleansing & Migration
Data is your cargo, and we don’t take chances. Our experts dive deep, cleansing your legacy data of redundancies and errors. We prioritize data integrity, ensuring that your operations don’t just float—they fly.

Optimization
ERP systems are cyclical. You never stop implementing. After the system is live, there are enhancements to implement, reports to run, and even secondary modules to include.
System Tuning
Over time, P21 system performance can degrade, and tuning may be needed to occur at the application server, the database, or the client deployments. Our Prophet 21 implementation experts promise that your system will be in its best form on day one and stay that way, even as time and industry changes add stress.
Integrations
One of the keys to a successful ERP ecosystem comes through integrating your P21 application with the rest of your business.
