Enterprise tools as unique as your business.

TrueNorthern helps companies with their Enterprise Technology and Operations — the software and strategy behind running your business, day to day.

Start With a Blank Canvas

It’s hard work to create or thrive in business. Your business is unique — the enterprise tools your team uses should be as unique as your business.

Illuminate the Canvas

Often you start from scratch, or strip your organization down to rebuild it stronger and more agile. We shine light on what you can achieve with scalable applications.

Fill In the Lines

You have a thousand opportunities, but focusing on the ones that move your organization forward are the keys to scale and success. Less is more.

Bring Ideas to Reality

Our approach is hands on — we guide you through the pitfalls and opportunities of enterprise software so you become the market leader you want to be.

How we work

You work directly with a partner.

In our firm we operate and succeed on a combination of experience, talent, grit and determination. We are all results-driven individuals. When you work with us you work directly with a partner — not a junior employee with no industry experience. Our direct-engagement strategy avoids the burden and cost of project managers, scrum masters, narrow experts or cheap low-value overseas specialists. We are a team of equity partners and help our clients succeed by direct engagement throughout the lifecycle of every engagement.

Featured — ERP

We configure, customize and optimize ERP.

We help organizations optimize and enhance their existing ERP environments. Whether you are just getting started or have been struggling with enhancements, we can help your organization maximize its investment.

Custom ERP Development

We have extensive skill developing on ERP platforms to customize and extend the native feature sets. Whether you have a complex sales cycle or a unique billing process, we help you design, develop and deploy customizations for maximum visibility into your data and processes.

Ecommerce Integration

We integrate your ERP with your ecommerce platform for a seamless flow of transactions between applications — letting your ERP act as the single source of record and system of truth for your Accounting and Finance teams.

Accounting

From processing vendor bills efficiently to GAAP compliance, we help you maximize the accounting side of your ERP. Anything that hits the GL gives your finance teams a real-time view of the numbers as they travel from quote to cash and purchase to pay.

Training

Your success depends on replicating what you know across your team. We train the trainers with a hands-on approach to both native ERP features and your unique business environment — documenting everything in the cloud as living material that grows with your organization.

Manufacturing

Many ERP applications have powerful manufacturing and inventory capabilities — work orders, discrete manufacturing, assemblies and vendor portals in one environment. We deploy complex manufacturing processes so multiple teams have insight into the flow of production.

Operations

For everything we do with your enterprise applications, we factor in the operational elements of your organization. From shipping product to building quotes on the fly with remote sales teams, we develop, enhance and optimize operations with roadmaps and tangible actions that SCALE the enterprise.

Analytics

Native financial reports and extendable custom reports and queries can be highly customized to give decision-makers insight into trends and opportunities. Using customized UI/UX features we optimize your team’s daily tasks against any time-bound reporting requirements.

Web Services Integrations

ERP applications typically have hundreds of partner applications available. We help clients choose the most scalable apps and perform advanced integrations that require more technical skill sets.

Sales Automation

Sales Automation is a rapid way to gain insight into the activities, leads and opportunities of your sales teams — tracking services or products in a way that brings your sales department in line with the strategic objectives of your organization.

Multi-Subsidiary

Multi-subsidiary ERP features bring all of your multicompany activity in line — multiple charts of accounts, languages and currencies consolidated under a parent entity. We’ve deployed and optimized ERP on four continents and in 10 languages.

CRM

The voice of the customer is one of the strongest data points. With CRM applications we help your organization optimize response times and communication, as well as capture valuable data about your customer activity.
