Sector — Where it matters most

Industrial & heavy engineering

Quotes sit in the CRM, costs sit in the ERP, and service revenue sits in neither. We build the intelligence layer above both, so margin per job is visible while the job is still running.

Industrial & heavy engineering

The challenge

Where the revenue picture breaks down.

In industrial and heavy engineering businesses, revenue is made on a job-by-job basis — and so is margin. But the systems underneath rarely know that. Quotes live in the CRM, job costs accumulate in the ERP, and service revenue from maintenance, call-outs and parts often sits in neither. By the time someone reconciles the picture, the job is closed and the margin is history. Businesses running at this scale cannot afford to review performance only in arrears.

The layer

How Pomodor applies here.

Pomodor builds the unified intelligence layer that sits above the CRM and ERP and reads both in real time. We connect quote data, job costing, service call records and invoice status into a single governed model — so the margin per job is visible while the job is still running, not after the close. On delivery cycles that run for months, that changes behaviour: a cost overrun becomes an approval decision at week six rather than a write-off at final invoice, and the maintenance and call-out revenue that compounds after commissioning is captured against the account instead of leaking into a generic ledger line.

The engagement

We build it. You own it.

The layer runs on the infrastructure the business already has. We configure, connect and instrument it, then document it properly. Ownership of the source code, schema and data sits with the client throughout, and at completion it is formally handed over — either into the client’s own team, with the same documentation we used to build it, or kept under our care as ongoing service provider.
