Hardware Integrations
ERP systems increasingly need to communicate with hardware: barcode scanners, label printers, scales, warehouse terminals and IoT devices. We design and implement integration layers between hardware and the ERP system, ensuring reliable data exchange and fault tolerance.
Why choose us
- ✓Barcode readers and QR scanners
- ✓Label printers and industrial scales
- ✓Warehouse terminals and mobile devices
- ✓Integration layers independent of hardware manufacturer
IoT / Internet of Things
ERP systems with IoT integration
Any data-collecting device can become a source of information for an ERP system. We design and implement integration layers between IoT hardware and ERP — regardless of the system platform or device manufacturer.
- →Manufacturing and industry: machine sensors, production counters, environmental parameter monitoring
- →Logistics: vibration and seismic scanners, tracking and localisation systems
- →Time and attendance (T&A) and access control — integration with HR/ERP modules
- →Retail and storage: temperature and humidity sensors, quality monitoring
- →Construction and infrastructure: vibration monitoring, tilt sensors, environmental measurements
How we do it
Requirements and device audit
We analyse the devices, protocols and data formats involved and map the target flow to the ERP system.
Integration layer design
We design a middleware or connector that translates device data into ERP-readable events, handling errors and retries.
Development and testing
We build the integration, test it against real hardware in a staging environment and verify edge cases before going live.
Deployment and monitoring
We deploy to production, configure alerting and hand over documentation for operations and future maintenance.
Frequently asked questions
Does the ERP system need a dedicated module for hardware integration?
Not necessarily. We often build a middleware layer between the device and the ERP API, keeping the two loosely coupled. This means you can change hardware or ERP without rewriting the whole integration.
What if the device uses a proprietary protocol?
Proprietary protocols are common in industrial hardware. We document the protocol, write a driver or adapter and wrap it in a standard interface that the integration layer communicates through.
What happens if the connection between the device and ERP is lost?
We build local buffering and retry logic into the integration layer so no data is lost during network interruptions. Events are queued and delivered once connectivity is restored.
