Geometrics Enterprise Reporting and CRM/ERP Evaluation for High-Tech Manufacturing

Geometrics designs and builds innovative and rugged geophysical data acquisition systems for land, marine, and airborne applications.

Geometrics was running legacy CRM, manufacturing and financial applications that required a lot of inefficient Excel spreadsheets to track and manage business processes, which made the reporting process slow and cumbersome.

The company was due for the implementation of modern CRM and ERP systems, running either on-premise or in the Cloud.

Frustrated by the cumbersome reporting process, RhinoSource was brought in by the company CFO to assess current business processes and to review the usage and state of legacy CRM, financial and manufacturing systems.

RhinoSource documented business processes and suggested near-term improvements.

As the first priority RhinoSource architected an enterprise reporting strategy and drove a Master Data Management effort using Microsoft SQL Server and SAP Crystal Reports, to help provide more timely visibility to the company’s data.

RhinoSource then briefed the Geometrics executive team on modern Cloud CRM and ERP solutions, assisted with requirements gathering and helped orchestrate a vendor evaluation process, which included Salesforce, NetSuite, SAP and Microsoft Dynamics.

Geometrics ultimately chose and successfully implemented a Cloud-based CRM/ERP system.
