Straight talk
Honest scope and honest risk — even when it's not what you hoped to hear. Surprises belong before the contract, not after go-live.
Home · About
Independent, experienced, and manufacturing-first.
Meta ERP exists to give manufacturers honest, capable IFS Cloud support without the vendor agenda — from someone who has done the work, not just sold it.
The story
Fifteen years in and around IFS — and still hands-on.
Meta ERP is an independent IFS Cloud consultancy built on fifteen years of functional delivery. Across that time I've implemented IFS from the ground up, led upgrades from older IFS versions and legacy ERPs onto IFS Cloud, and supported live systems long after go-live — for direct manufacturing clients and alongside some of the best-known IFS partners and integrators.
That mix matters. I've seen how projects are sold, how they're delivered, and — most importantly — how they hold up once the consultants leave. It's why Meta ERP is deliberately independent: no licences to push, no bench to keep busy. Just clear advice and capable delivery, from a practitioner who understands manufacturing operations as well as the software.
Certified & proven
IFS Certified Practitioner — Manufacturing Consultant, with delivery experience spanning implementation, upgrade and managed support.
What I stand for
Principles that shape every engagement.
Independence
No software to sell means no hidden agenda. The recommendation is the one that's right for your operation.
Manufacturing depth
ETO, MTO, discrete and batch are the day job. I speak shop floor as fluently as I speak IFS.
Knowledge transfer
My job is to make your team more capable, not more dependent. I hand over what I know as I go.
Outcomes over hours
Success is a system that earns its keep — shorter lead times, cleaner data, decisions people trust.
Confidentiality
Client names and project details stay private, always. What I learn on your project stays on your project.
