Help people to use our tools

We believe our tools like ERPNext can help organizations reduce waste and complexity. Frappe + ERPNext has the potential to be a “full stack” replacement for not only ERP (SAP/Oracle) but also the entire enterprise stack (Java/.NET). With this scope, we should help organizations by providing products and services to help them manage their technology platforms.

Why ERPNext over SAP B1 / Oracle

100% FOSS

Customizable

Future-ready

Challenges

From the raw material collection to final production, plenty of workflows are involved in the manufacturing process, which can be hectic and challenging for manufacturing industries like Rockerz to manage in terms of time, demand, consumption, and labor costs.
As customer demands increased, the inefficiencies in their system became more apparent. Manual data entry for every order led to frequent delays and errors, while inventory management swung between overstocking and shortages, making production planning chaotic.
Inconsistent pricing structures and the absence of a centralized platform for customization requests added to the complexity.

Benefits

As ERPNext was rolled out, Rockerz saw immediate improvements:

Inventory Management: Overstocking and waste were minimized, ensuring materials were always available when needed.
Pricing Optimization: A structured pricing system factored in all costs, overheads, and profit margins, eliminating inconsistencies.
Automation & Efficiency: From procurement to bookkeeping, processes were streamlined, making workflows smoother and reducing errors.
Customer-Centric Approach: Buyers could now register easily, specify product preferences, and track their orders effortlessly.
Hybrid Application: A multi-platform solution enhanced the user experience and balanced functionality with cost-effectiveness.

Impact

Successful on-time ERPNext go-live

Increased sales order to cash

Increased inventory turnover

Post-implementation, the results were nothing short of remarkable.

Rockerz saw a 50% increase in production rates, enhanced operational efficiency, and centralized control over data and processes. Customers enjoyed a more seamless buying experience, and Rockerz regained control over their supply chain and pricing strategies. With ERPNext, Rockerz Skate Guards not only overcame their operational challenges but also positioned themselves for sustained growth. Their journey is a testament to how the right technology can transform a business—bringing precision, efficiency, and excellence to every step of the process.
