What we do

ERP implementation, custom development and modernisation

What we do depends on where you stand: you choose a new ERP, you keep your ERP, or your customisations are ageing.

ERP implementation

Wercstat ERP introduced by its makers, fitted to your processes and filled with the data from your current system, so you have one point of contact from analysis to support.

Custom development

Extensions and integrations for Infor LN, Baan and other ERP systems, so your ERP stays and still does what you need.

Modernisation

Baan, Infor LN and other legacy customisations analysed first, then moved to a mainstream, modern platform, so the knowledge no longer depends on one person.

Fixed price

A fixed price, no months of requirements

With us, a modernisation does not start with months of writing down requirements: the source code and table definitions of your system already record what it does. How that is possible: we convert the existing code with AI. What is done by hand is stated in the quote. When we build something new, it starts with a specification that stays with the whole project. Read about our approach.

One point of contact

Those who build it implement it and stay involved

The makers of Wercstat ERP also implement it, so there is no finger-pointing between vendor and implementation partner. After delivery, errors and warnings reach your own support department, us, or both automatically. That way we often see problems before the user does. Read how that works in practice.

Knowledge secured

Knowledge that does not depend on one person

What we deliver is mainstream, modern Java, described in a readable model. So the knowledge of your software no longer sits in the head of that one developer, but in the system itself. Read about modernisation.

Thirty years of ERP practice

Cases

Since 1996 we have built customisations for ERP systems, Baan and Infor LN among them. These projects are still in production and still being developed.

Production of aluminium cladding

Euramax Cladding: customisations on Baan IV since 2000, with a Wercstat ERP layer since 2021

Since 2000, Van Kessel IT has built customisation modules on Euramax's Baan IV ERP: transport, quality and production modules that are still in daily use after 25 years. Since 2021, Van Kessel IT has also been the implementation partner of Wercstat ERP there, which runs next to Baan IV for sales orders, material and production planning, inter-company orders and stock scanning. Fully integrated and running 24/7, because production continues through night shifts.

Large retailer: supply-chain web service in Java, continuously in production since 2016

The service handles millions of requests per hour at 99.9% availability, is closely integrated with the existing ERP backend, and serves internal planning as well as the retailer's own web shop and large business customers.
