ERPs are a huge investment. The cost of implementation, integration, and acquisition can make it prohibitively expensive to switch your ERP. That’s why companies want their systems to last as long as possible without sacrificing performance. That can be hard when some of the software is aging.
Companies facing this problem can find a solution by looking into financial automation software. Financial automation platforms help integrate and upgrade existing systems and processes.
Here are three key ways a financial automation platform, like Briq, can help your ERP last longer, run faster, and perform better.
Automate data extraction from your ERP
One huge hassle companies face with ERPs is getting data out of the system. Whether it’s logins, loading times, or navigating a confusing interface to get the information you need, data extraction is a pain.
With Briq, that process can be automated. Our bots can replicate the button clicks and keystrokes of your employees to get the information out of the system. It can then place the information in the appropriate database, spreadsheet, or format you need it in.
This means that it doesn’t matter how complicated or old the system is anymore, since employees won’t need to use it nearly as much. Hours of time spent loading and moving information can now instead be spent on more important tasks.
Connect your point solutions to your ERP
ERPs can’t do it all. This presents a problem for companies looking to integrate other software into their tech stack. Information may need to move between the ERP and external software. When that happens, construction teams are stuck doing double data entry with the information they’ve already extracted. Businesses will be forced to consider whether additional solutions are more trouble than they’re worth.
By using Briq, technology integration becomes simpler than ever. Briq is a platform built to connect every piece of software in your organization into an intelligent, familiar interface. It doesn’t just pull information into the platform, it acts as the bridge that moves data from place to place and gives you the final result.
In short, Briq sits on top of your ERP and allows for data migration in and out of the system to your various other point solutions. This allows companies to manage their tech stack and get all the information they need from a single login point.
See your data more clearly than ever before
With an ERP, your data may be scattered across multiple points in the system. Even when it’s extracted, bringing it all together in a format that makes sense can be a challenge on its own. The default dashboards available may not suit your needs, and workarounds can be cumbersome.
Using Briq, you can create customized dashboards that display all the information you want, in one place. But it goes beyond just a display. Our analytics systems actually review the data put into it to look for trends, anomalies, and key data points to highlight for business decision-making. This enhances the quality and visibility of the data pulled from your ERP.
What this means is that you aren’t just seeing a graph of numbers on a screen. You can see what those numbers mean for the business and how this data relates to the health and performance of the company overall.
How Briq brings new utility to older systems
Briq was created to synergize with virtually any construction tech stack. Our platform brings that synergy to ERPs, giving them more utility, connectivity, and power. With automated data migration, AI analytics, and API connections, Briq helps construction companies run a better business from a single platform.
