Available individually, most effective in combination: whoever understands the processes can also build and explain them.

Learn more about Project managementWe analyse your workflows, compare them with the Abas ERP standard and develop a target concept that can actually be implemented – rather than one that ends up in a drawer.

Learn more about Custom developmentWhy CCSchwarz
Concept and implementation come from the same place. That avoids translation losses between department, consultant and developer – and arguments about who meant what.
Every customisation comes back at the next release upgrade. So we first check what Abas ERP already does and only build custom solutions where they pay off.
Implementation starts with an estimate you can discuss. Changes in scope are named before they appear on an invoice.
Documentation and key-user enablement are part of the project. You should master the system yourself rather than depend on us permanently.
Focus on Abas ERP
Abas ERP is widely used in German mid-sized manufacturing – companies that build variants, maintain bills of materials and balance deadlines against capacity. That is exactly the environment we work in.
The specialisation has a practical reason: knowing one system and its typical pitfalls removes the learning curve at the customer’s expense. Analysis, implementation and training therefore mesh far more quickly.
More about usInternational sites
Part of our work happens outside Germany: at the plants and sales offices of German groups – and with companies abroad that run Abas ERP in their own right. Both work in English throughout.
An agreed process template is rolled out, while local specifics such as tax logic, document formats and languages stay clearly separated from it. That keeps the core maintainable.
Courses and material in English or German, delivered online for distributed teams. Key users at each site are built up deliberately.
A few focused on-site visits for process analysis and go-live, the ongoing work remote. That keeps cost and time zones manageable.
Apps
Where the standard falls short and a customisation would not go far enough, standalone apps for Abas ERP emerge. Alongside them are apps on the App Store that have nothing to do with ERP.
The sales desk on the iPad – look it up, quote it, order it
Look up customers, prospects, contacts and parts live in your own Abas ERP, and write quotations and sales orders straight into it – from the iPad at the customer's site. What you read is the record in the ERP.
Today's route on the iPhone – deliver, get the signature, done
Drivers work through the delivery notes on their own route from the device – with digital signature, photo proof and automatic write-back to Abas ERP. Instead of paper stacks and calls to the office.
Receipts, issues, transfers – scanned instead of typed
Warehouse staff scan article, location and lot and post a receipt, issue or transfer straight into Abas ERP – one-handed, without typing and without a second database.
The whole service call on the iPad – from appointment to signature
Service technicians see their appointments, the equipment and the parts in the van, record hours and material and have the service report signed on the iPad at the customer's site – live in your own Abas ERP.
A first conversation costs nothing but half an hour – and afterwards you will know whether we are a good fit.
