ERP Integration (SAP, NetSuite, Oracle, Workday)

ERP systems like SAP, NetSuite, Oracle, and Workday hold the financial, HR, and operational data most AI initiatives eventually need, but they're built for stability rather than easy API access, and a careless integration can corrupt a ledger or double-post a transaction. This service designs and builds the middleware layer that lets AI agents and automations safely read from and write to your ERP: pulling data for reporting or forecasting, or pushing approved transactions back in, without bypassing the controls your finance and HR teams already rely on. We work within each ERP's supported integration methods, such as APIs, iDocs, OData, or vendor connectors, rather than reaching into the database directly. The result is an ERP that can feed and receive from modern AI tooling without putting your close process or compliance posture at risk.

This is a capability we deliver for you as a service, not a role we’re hiring for.

How We’d Approach This

A clear, staged plan, not a black box

These are the service-specific steps inside our six-step process.

  1. 1

    Diagnose which ERP modules, tables, and transaction types the use case actually touches

  2. 2

    Pilot a read-only or single-transaction-type integration in a sandbox ERP instance

  3. 3

    Review data integrity, error-handling, and rollback behavior with finance, HR, and ops stakeholders before granting write access

  4. 4

    Roll out phased write access with reconciliation checks and an audit trail on every automated transaction
