Business Systems Optimization

Pick/MultiValue systems run some of the most complex business operations in manufacturing, distribution, and marine industries. The code works. The problem is usually that the system was built one module at a time over decades, and nobody has stepped back to look at how the pieces fit together. That's where we come in — APICS CPIM certified, with 50+ implementations across industries where inventory, production, and distribution have to be right.

Manufacturing systems

MRP, CRP, shop floor control, work order management, BOM processing, routing, labor tracking, and production scheduling. We've built and optimized these modules on Pick systems for shops ranging from job shops to repetitive manufacturing. If your MRP is generating noise instead of actionable purchase recommendations, or your shop floor data isn't flowing back into planning, we can fix the loop.

Distribution & warehouse management

Order management, inventory control, purchasing, receiving, put-away, picking, packing, shipping, and returns. Multi-warehouse, multi-location, lot tracking, serial number tracking, bin management. We optimize the flow from purchase order to customer delivery — and the data that tracks every step in Pick.

Inventory control

Cycle counting programs, physical inventory processes, ABC analysis, reorder point optimization, safety stock calculations, dead stock identification. Your Pick system has the history to make inventory decisions data-driven instead of gut-driven. We build the tools and processes that make that happen — including mobile web apps for warehouse staff running counts from their phones.

ERP integration & optimization

Many Pick-based ERP systems were built in-house or heavily customized from a base package. Over time, modules were added, workflows changed, and the system drifted from how it was designed to run. We assess what's working, what's fighting itself, and what's missing — then optimize. Sometimes that means new code. Sometimes it means configuration changes. Sometimes it means removing complexity that's no longer needed.

EDI processing

Electronic Data Interchange for B2B commerce — 850 purchase orders, 810 invoices, 856 advance ship notices, 820 payment remittance, and other standard transaction sets. We build and maintain EDI processing in Pick: inbound parsing, outbound generation, trading partner mapping, and the exception handling that keeps EDI from becoming a daily fire drill. Integration with VAN providers and AS2 connections.

Marine industry

We have deep experience in marine industry business systems — boat manufacturing, marine parts distribution, dealer management, and service operations. The marine industry has its own data patterns: seasonal demand curves, complex BOMs with options and configurations, warranty tracking, dealer network management, and parts interchange. We've built Pick systems that handle all of it.

CRM & sales operations

Customer relationship management built into your Pick system or integrated with external CRMs like HubSpot and Salesforce. Contact management, opportunity tracking, quote generation, sales history analysis, commission calculations, and customer scoring. Your sales data lives where your order data lives — no manual sync between systems.

Financial systems

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, general ledger, bank reconciliation, and financial reporting. Integration with QuickBooks and other accounting platforms when the finance team needs their own tools. Payment processing for credit cards and ACH connected directly to AR.

JIT & lean processes

Just-in-time inventory management, kanban systems, vendor-managed inventory, and lean manufacturing processes implemented in Pick. We build the data flows and triggers that support pull-based production and procurement — reducing carrying costs without stockouts.

APICS CPIM certified

We hold APICS Certified in Production and Inventory Management (CPIM) certification. That means we don't just write code — we understand the business theory behind MRP, CRP, master scheduling, demand management, and capacity planning. When we optimize your system, we're applying production and inventory management principles, not just fixing software bugs.

Platforms

We optimize business systems on jBASE, Rocket UniVerse, Rocket UniData, Rocket D3, and mvBASE.
