FRACTIONAL ERP · MANUFACTURING & DISTRIBUTION
Most ERP problems aren’t software problems.
They’re usually configuration, process, reporting, governance, or adoption problems. PinPoint ERPS helps manufacturers and distributors recover more value from SYSPRO and Sage X3, while providing independent oversight for D365 Finance & Supply Chain programs.
WHY PINPOINT
I understand both sides of the table.
At Ocean Insight, I owned a $2.5M Oracle EBS-to-D365 Finance & Operations transformation across seven business units. The responsibility extended well beyond project administration into finance, supply chain, manufacturing, warehousing, data migration, security, reporting, integrations, governance, and operating adoption.
Beginning in August 2024, I moved to the consulting side as a Client Program Manager at Net-at-Work, managing a portfolio of Sage X3 manufacturing and distribution clients and coordinating executives, functional consultants, technical teams, vendors, upgrades, escalations, roadmap decisions, training, and post-go-live strategy.
Internal ERP ownership. Consulting-side program leadership. 30+ years of SYSPRO depth. That combination changes the questions I ask and the risks I see.
THREE CORE PLATFORMS
Start with the system you already have, or the implementation you need to get right.
Different platforms create different risks. The advisory model changes with the problem instead of forcing every client into the same implementation playbook.
Recover underused capability
Fix reporting, process, training, inventory, manufacturing, and configuration gaps before you consider replacing the ERP.

Senior ERP capability without adding another organizational layer.
PinPoint can own the gap, strengthen your internal team, or challenge an implementation partner when the project needs independent judgment.
Fractional ERP leadership
Strategy, priorities, vendor management, governance, escalation, and roadmap ownership on a schedule that matches the need.
Optimization & recovery
Configuration, workflow, reporting, data, and adoption improvements focused on measurable operating pain.
Implementation assurance
Independent project health checks that surface risk before cutover, not during the first failed close.
Reporting & controls
Spreadsheet Server, Crystal Reports, JET, Power BI, security, SoD, and the control layer around the ERP.
