STP Systems > Case Studies > Enterprise Resource Management System

Client is a young startup company which developed a unique industrial software product utilized in automotive, aerospace, defense, medical and other fields that require high precision parts manufacturing and inspection.
The company had experienced exponential growth in sales which led to a severe bottleneck in sales logistics, software distribution, licensing, customer training and customer support.
Client needed to automate and standardize their sales, software distribution and licensing processes as well as have a fully integrated E-commerce website.

Client did not want to purchase a full-blown Enterprise Resource Management System (ERP) and spend considerable amount time customizing it for their specific business needs.
The key criterion for the Client was the direct integration of the front-end Website with the back-end ERP system and ability to fully automate sales life-cycle, licensing, distribution and customer support

STP Systems conducted technology evaluation and feasibility study arriving to conclusion that none of “out of the shelf” products (including Software as a Service SaaS solutions) would meet Client’s goal taking into consideration the budget and delivery time frame.
STP Systems took responsibility to design, develop, deliver and maintain a custom “build to suit” Information Management System which includes a unique blend of ERP fundamentals, CRM, E-commerce and RIA systems.

STP Systems developed a “light” Enterprise Resource Management System (ERP) combined with highly attractive consumer-facing Rich Internet Application (RIA) that includes integrated E-Commerce and Helpdesk capabilities.
The focus of the system is to manage and automate all aspects of Client’s business process, manage customers, track sales activities, facilitate software distribution and license fulfillment.
The system includes back-end desktop client-server type ERP-style application and completely integrated front-end website based on DotNetNuke Content Management System (CMS).
The solution is based on Microsoft .NET technology and is built using STP Systems proprietary “Efficiency Business Suite” platform that allows rapid application development leveraging agile software development techniques.
