For Business Owners, Managing Directors & CTOs (Companies with €2M+ Turnover)

We don't put four junior consultants on your clock billing hours without understanding your process. We deliver a custom vertical platform fully integrated into your systems, with complete outcome ownership and fixed costs.

No more open-ended hourly billing inflating your invoices every month. No more explaining your warehouse logistics, production line, or job costing to fresh graduates in training. We build your operational platform with a binding fixed-scope quote, direct integration with your existing legacy databases, and complete delivery accountability.

Response within 24 business hours. Talk directly with the engineers building your platform. Zero sales reps.

Dear Business Owner, Managing Director, or Technical Director,

If your company turns over 2 million euros or more, you know the script of traditional IT consulting firms and software houses by heart.

During the sales pitch, senior partners or account executives present the proposal: they talk about transformation, modern frameworks, and revolutionary methodologies. Then they hand you an open-ended time-and-materials contract or an estimate based on billed person-days.

The following Monday, who do they send to sit with your production manager or warehouse lead?

Two, three, or four junior profiles. Eager young professionals, but having never seen an actual work order, unaware of mixed-pallet receiving constraints, unfamiliar with batch traceability regulations, and with zero experience handling multi-level bills of materials or customs dispatch notes.

What happens over the following months? Your internal department heads waste hundreds of hours teaching your business to the very people hired to digitize it; billable hours climb relentlessly; promised delivery dates slip quarter after quarter; and when the software finally arrives, it breaks on edge cases and refuses to talk to your accounting systems.

At Adelant, our model is the exact opposite: you deal exclusively with senior engineers with hands-on industrial and enterprise experience, we agree on a binding fixed price upfront, and we take full accountability for getting the platform into daily production.

Traditional Hourly IT Consulting vs Adelant Engineering Partner

The fundamental difference between firms whose revenue grows when your problems drag on, and engineers rewarded only for resolving them permanently.

Evaluation Criterion
Traditional Hourly Consulting
Adelant Vertical Platform
Who executes the work
Senior sales staff close the deal; actual execution is handed down to junior hires or interns learning on your clock.
Dedicated senior engineers who immediately understand warehouse logistics, shop-floor routing, margins, and work orders.
Invoicing model
Time & Materials: the longer they take to understand your operations, the more hours they bill you at month-end.
Fixed milestone pricing for development + a transparent, degressive annual maintenance agreement.
Requirement gathering
Expects you to write hundreds of pages of technical specs; when an edge case fails, they blame your incomplete specification.
We map the physical and document flows on the ground: packing slips, purchase orders, stock reconciliations, and line cycle times.
Legacy ERP integration
They push to discard your legacy system or bolt on fragile scripts that break every time software updates.
Direct, bidirectional integration with your existing legacy databases (AS400, DB2, SQL Server, core financial ERPs).
Ownership & Lock-in
Closed proprietary runtimes: your data is held hostage, annual license fees escalate, and exit penalties apply.
Full sovereignty: source code and database remain entirely your property, built on open, documented standards.
Delivery accountability
'We delivered the contracted hours': if the software fails or misses a vital edge case, they issue another change-order quote.
Outcome ownership: we are accountable for making the platform work reliably in daily operations through final acceptance.

The 4 Core Principles of Our Operating Method

How we engineer robust vertical platforms for companies managing physical inventory, production lines, and real business volume.

01

Mapping Real Business Flows Before Writing Code

We do not write a single line of code before tracing the actual lifecycle of your goods and paperwork: from supplier quotes to goods receipt, from manufacturing job orders to batch deductions, delivery notes, and invoicing. The software conforms to your operational strengths, not the other way around.

02

Seamless Integration with Zero Operational Downtime

A multi-million euro business cannot freeze shipments or assembly lines to test new software. We connect the new platform to your existing servers and historical archives, running parallel validation with zero disruptions to ongoing operations.

03

Guaranteed Fixed Pricing with Strict Milestones

Once the scope is finalized during preliminary discovery, the agreed figure is what you pay. No miscellaneous overhead, no surprise billing for 'project governance' or unexpected debugging. If we estimated a module, delivery risk is entirely ours.

04

Complete Traceability and Enterprise Data Security

Granular role-based permissions, an immutable audit log of every transaction (recording exactly who created, altered, or approved every document or record), and continuous automated backups. Your data remains protected in your dedicated infrastructure.

Our Execution Roadmap: From Audit to Full Production

A disciplined, senior-led process designed to avoid taking up unnecessary time from your leadership team.

1
Phase 1

Preliminary Technical Audit (No Cost)

A senior engineer reviews your operational friction points directly with you: which tasks are still manually recorded in spreadsheets? Where do delays occur between sales, procurement, and shipping? We deliver a clear feasibility roadmap with exact scope, timeline, and a binding fixed quote.

2
Phase 2

Data Architecture & Working Prototype

We model the database schema and business logic. Rather than static presentation decks, we give your managers access within weeks to an interactive prototype running realistic data to test operational ergonomics firsthand.

3
Phase 3

Vertical Development & Systems Integration

We build the platform and interface with legacy databases, rugged shop-floor terminals, machines, or accounting systems. Every component is verified with automated tests to prevent bugs and regression issues.

4
Phase 4

Side-by-Side Staging & Live Production Cutover

We roll out the platform in parallel with your historical systems, clean and migrate legacy records, train key operators, and achieve smooth production cutover with direct senior support.

Who This Solution Is Designed For (And Who It Isn't)

The right choice if:

  • Your company generates €2M or more annually and manages complex logistics, manufacturing, or distribution workflows.
  • Your existing ERP is rigid, expensive, or requires dozens of separate Excel spreadsheets to patch operational gaps.
  • You are tired of paying hourly consulting bills to agencies that send junior graduates to train on your systems.
  • You want a single, accountable senior technical partner with whom you can discuss clear timelines, costs, and operational results.

NOT the right fit if:

  • You are looking for a basic promotional website or a generic template app on a budget of a few hundred euros.
  • You need temporary staff augmentation or body rental to plug short-term vacancies in an internal team.
  • You want a generic off-the-shelf software package and have no desire to adapt tools to your competitive operational advantages.

Frequently Asked Questions from Owners and Technical Directors

How can you guarantee fixed pricing without charging extra billable hours?

Because we do not work on open-ended time and materials. During the preliminary audit, we identify technical dependencies, existing databases, and operational edge cases up front. The statement of work defines the deliverables and fixed milestone costs. If an integration requires extra engineering effort, that is our business risk, not an additional invoice for you.

Will we need to discard our current ERP system?

No. In the vast majority of mid-market businesses, your existing ERP continues to perform what it does best: general ledger, balance sheets, and tax compliance. Our vertical platform connects directly to the underlying database in real time to handle specialized operational workflows—such as warehouse picking, shop-floor dispatch, lot tracking, or B2B sales portals.

What happens after delivery? Who maintains the platform?

We provide ongoing support and evolutionary maintenance agreements with clear, predictable fees. There is zero vendor lock-in: the source code and database remain entirely your property, built on open and fully documented standards.

How quickly can we see an operational version?

We prioritize fast execution cycles: a working core prototype running on sample company data is typically ready for staging testing within 6 to 10 weeks of kickoff, giving your team concrete operational utility before secondary modules are added.

Who will our team communicate with during the project?

You communicate directly with an Adelant Senior Engineering Partner. No non-technical account managers, no layers of project coordinators, and no junior delegates.
