Being comfortably within a morning’s drive of our Olney office, Newark-on-Trent is somewhere we get to regularly. Discovery, training and go-live are all better done in the room, and at 64 miles that is entirely practical.

## Details

- **Solution:** Business Management Software
- **Group:** Core platform
- **Platform:** CubeERP (https://cubeerp.co.uk/platform)
- **Location:** Newark-on-Trent, Nottinghamshire
- **Distance from our Olney office:** 64 miles - comfortably within a morning’s drive of our Olney office
- **Postcode districts:** NG24, NG22, NG23, NG25
- **Also known as:** Business software, All-in-one business system, Operations management software, Business operating system, Company management software

## Coverage

We cover Newark-on-Trent and the surrounding area, including Town Centre, Balderton, Farndon, Coddington and Bingham, across the NG24, NG22, NG23 and NG25 postcode districts. We also work with businesses in Nottingham, Mansfield and Worksop and elsewhere in Nottinghamshire.

## What is included

- **One customer record:** Contacts, addresses, delivery instructions, pricing agreements, credit limits, quotes, orders, jobs and invoices on a single record that anybody with permission can read.
- **Work you can see:** Every open quote, order, works order and job on one board, filtered by owner, site or status, so the weekly meeting is a review rather than an investigation.
- **Documents where they belong:** Drawings, certificates, specifications, photographs and correspondence attached to the customer, order or part they relate to - not in a shared drive organised by whoever saved it.
- **Approvals with limits:** Discounts, purchase orders, credit notes and write-offs routed by value to the person allowed to sign them, with the decision and the reason recorded.
- **Alerts instead of chasing:** Overdue orders, expiring quotes, late deliveries, stock below minimum and jobs running over estimate all raise themselves rather than waiting to be noticed.
- **Reporting without exports:** Dashboards by role and scheduled reports that arrive by email. If somebody is still exporting to Excel to answer a routine question, that is a report we have not built yet.

## Real-world use cases

### Twelve tools and no single answer

**Scenario:** A 60-person business ran a CRM, a quoting spreadsheet, a stock spreadsheet, a shared drive, a job diary and an accounts package. Every management question needed three exports and a reconciliation before anybody could answer it.
**Outcome:** One system, one record per customer and one set of numbers. The monthly management pack is now produced from live dashboards, and the finance team got most of a week back each month.

### Growth that outran the process

**Scenario:** A distributor doubled headcount in three years. The informal process that worked at fifteen people had become a source of daily errors at forty, and the fixes kept being another spreadsheet.
**Outcome:** Pricing rules, approval limits and order workflows are now enforced by the system rather than remembered by people. New starters are productive in days, and errors are caught at entry rather than at invoicing.

### A business nobody could take a holiday from

**Scenario:** Key information - who gets which price, which supplier is reliable, what the customer agreed last time - lived with individuals. Absence was disruptive and turnover was expensive.
**Outcome:** That knowledge now lives in the system as data and rules rather than in people’s heads. Cover is now possible, and handover is a permissions change rather than a fortnight of briefings.

## Figures

- **14** Modules on one data model
- **1** Record per customer, supplier and part
- **Role** Based permissions down to field level

## Frequently asked questions

**What is the difference between business management software and ERP?**

Very little, in practice. "ERP" is the industry term and tends to imply manufacturing and stock; "business management software" is what people search for when they want the same thing without the jargon. CubeERP is one product either way - you turn on the parts you need.

**Can we start with part of it?**

Yes, and most people do. Start with the area that is currently causing the most trouble - usually stock, quoting or job costing - and add the rest as you go. It is the same system, so nothing has to be integrated later.

**How many users do we need?**

Named users, so you pay for people who actually use it. Warehouse scanning and shop-floor booking terminals are licensed differently from full office users, because a picker with a scanner is not doing the same job as a buyer.

**Will it work for a service business with no stock?**

Yes. Turn off stock and production and you have a quoting, job, scheduling and invoicing system. Plenty of our conversations start with a business that assumed ERP meant warehouses.

**What happens to our existing spreadsheets?**

The useful ones get migrated and the rest get retired. Part of discovery is working out which spreadsheets are load-bearing, because those are the ones that tell you what the business really needs.
