What is Bonsai ERP?
Bonsai ERP ™ is a comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.
Bonsai ERP ™ is software that:
* understands and supports all of your business, not just your finances
* knows your products and processes
* tracks and manages your inputs and outputs and the work your people do
* enables planning, tracking, co-ordination
* produces business intelligence – you have enough information to find opportunities for improvement
* integrates all business functions into one system and one data store
Bonsai ERP ™ integrates common business needs such as Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Supply Chain Management (SCM), Materials Requirements Planning (MRP), Point Of Sale (POS), Maintenance Management System (CMMS) and eCommerce. The modules and interface are customised to suit your business, so each installation of Bonsai ERP ™ is unique.
You probably won’t need everything that Bonsai ERP ™ can do. You definitely don’t want to see screens of irrelevant options. So we work with you to determine what parts of Bonsai ERP ™ will help your business. We will work with you to understand your current workflow, so we can customise Bonsai ERP ™ to the needs of your business. We design the interface to suit the way you work.
As your business grows over time, your needs will change. We can alter Bonsai ERP ™ to grow with you.
If you are implementing an ERP for the first time, you may want to minimise any risk by applying Bonsai ERPTM to only a small part of your business. We can help you identify an area where a small investment in Bonsai ERPTM is most likely to have a quick return on investment. This allows you to see quickly the benefits of ERP with minimal risk, and subsequently identify with more confidence where the ERP solution should be next applied.
