We split the discovery into 7 short briefs — one per functional area, one per owner. Each takes 20–30 minutes, runs in the browser, and saves as it's answered. This page is the map.
You already run on an ERP — the question isn't whether one works, it's whether the next one earns its keep against everything you've built over 70 years: integrated supply programs, VMI and CMI at your customers' sites, IoT bin replenishment, engineering R&D, quality lot discipline, and a global sourcing footprint. And whether the AI layer on top solves a real bottleneck, not just adds features.
Before proposing anything, we want to map Bamal as it actually operates — not as a demo would flatter it. These briefs are built for that: each area answers only what belongs to their role. No one wades through questions that aren't theirs. Answers land in one consolidated diagnostic that becomes the spine of the proposal.
Everything below is already in our diagnostic — no one on your team needs to repeat it. Correct anything that's off; the briefs skip these basics.
Send each link to the person best placed to answer it. Each brief opens in the browser, auto-saves as they type, and sends securely to Moriane on submit. Once received, they see a thank-you screen and Daniela is notified immediately.
The "why now", success in 12 months, decision authority, budget bands, timeline and change-management appetite.
Vendor and version in production, all-in cost, what to preserve, what to retire, shadow-IT workarounds, integrations, and data-security posture.
RFQ → quote → order → invoice lifecycle, Class-C pricing logic, EDI and customer portals, VMI billing flow.
Buyer organization, domestic vs. overseas process, supplier scorecards, FX / incoterms / landed cost, long-lead-time discipline.
The heart of Bamal. VMI/CMI operating model, IoT bin sensors and data flow, inventory accuracy, forecasting, multi-location visibility.
Receipt → put-away → available-to-promise, WMS/scanners, TMS and carrier integration, lot traceability, IATF / ISO / AS9100 requirements.
AR/AP/GL cadence, costing methods, reports leaders actually rely on, top-3 AI use cases to prioritize, and data-boundary red lines.
When the 7 answers come back, Moriane consolidates them into one written diagnostic, a shortlist of the 2–3 ERP directions that actually fit Bamal — with trade-offs stated plainly — and a phased AI roadmap tied to the top use cases your team named.
