  • Business Systems

    TDS consultants are highly skilled in designing and implementing business systems such as ERP and CRM for small and medium-sized businesses. Here are just some of the systems we have deployed and integrated for our clients:

       Oracle & SAP Pentaho Clearspace
       Marcam Sugar CRM Liferay
       Compiere Lucene Drupal
       Openbravo Solr Joomla

    When TDS takes on a new project, our experts work with your functional and IT managers to pinpoint key requirements:  

    • Specific business system gaps that need to be addressed
    • Critical application functionality that will streamline business process & operations
    • Effective integration points with existing systems
    • Optimal selection and sourcing of hardware and software
    • Necessary customization in order to completely meet your requirements

    TDS then leverages best-of-breed, best-of-need and open source options to address these requirements.   With small and mid-sized businesses, we have often seen open source provide tremendous improvements in total-cost-of-ownership, deployment speed and customization:

    • Eliminate high startup costs and achieve shorter "time to value"
    • Reduce resource investments into platform expertise and infrastructure  
    • Ability to customize to your business requirements for enterprise software  
    • Achieve affordable and scalable pricing (initial and ongoing)   
    • Eliminate "all-in" pricing models where you pay for broad and deep features

    Openbravo is one example of an open source alternative offering a fully functional integrated web-based ERP platform for small and midsize enterprises (SMEs).  The Openbravo ERP platform combines point of sale (POS), distribution, inventory, e-commerce, accounting and workflow systems within one robust application.

    TDS can help identify, evaluate and implement conventional and open source alternatives to support your business system requirements and resources.
