POS and ERP Systems in Saudi Arabia

Selecting, configuring, integrating, and supporting the systems that hold trading and resource planning in one record. The engagement is the work around the system, not the system's own feature list.

The problems it solves

Sales, stock, and finance are reconciled by hand after the fact, so the operating position is always a day behind.

1. 01

   The position is always a day behind

   Sales sit in the till, stock sits in a spreadsheet, and finance reconciles both after close. By the time the numbers agree, the decision they were needed for has already been made.

2. 02

   Stock is counted twice and trusted once

   Purchasing works from one figure and the shop floor from another. Neither is wrong exactly; they were captured at different moments and never reconciled at the source.

3. 03

   Every branch runs a slightly different process

   Local workarounds accumulate because the system does not match how a site actually trades. Reporting then compares figures that were produced by different methods.

4. 04

   The system cannot be changed without the original supplier

   Configuration lives in someone else's head. Routine changes such as a new tax rule, outlet, or price band require a support ticket and a wait.

What the work covers

Point of sale and resource planning holding sales, inventory, purchasing, and reporting in one record instead of three.

• Requirement and fit assessment

  Establish how trading actually runs before selecting anything, then judge candidate systems against that rather than against a feature matrix.

• Configuration and customisation

  Tax rules, outlets, price bands, user roles, and document flows configured to the operation, with genuine gaps closed by extension rather than by changing how the business works.

• Data migration

  Products, suppliers, customers, and opening balances moved with reconciliation at both ends, so the first day on the new system is auditable against the last day on the old one.

• Integration

  Point of sale, resource planning, accounting, and commerce connected so a transaction is entered once and stays consistent everywhere it is used.

• Rollout across sites

  Sequenced deployment with a reference site proven first, so later sites inherit a configuration that has already survived real trading.

• Handover and training

  The people who use the system daily are trained on it, and the configuration is documented so the client can change it without depending on us.

How it is delivered

1. Assess

   Observe a trading day end to end and record where figures are created, re-entered, and reconciled.

2. Select

   Match the requirement to a system, whether a Cambridge product or a third-party platform. The honest answer is sometimes the one already in place.

3. Configure

   Set up the operation's real rules and prove them against historical transactions before anyone relies on them.

4. Migrate

   Move data with a reconciliation at both ends, and run parallel where the risk of a hard cutover is not acceptable.

5. Deploy

   Prove one site, then roll the proven configuration to the rest.

6. Support

   Monitor, patch, and extend as the trading operation changes.

Questions businesses ask

• Do you supply your own POS and ERP, or set up other systems?

  Either. We match the requirement to a system, whether one of ours or a third-party platform, and sometimes the honest answer is the system already in place.

• Can you move our data from the old system?

  Yes. Products, suppliers, customers and opening balances are migrated with a reconciliation at both ends, so the first day on the new system can be checked against the last day on the old one.

• We have several branches. How is a POS rolled out?

  One reference site is proven first, then the proven configuration is rolled out to the others, with scheduled data exchange between the sites and head office.

• Can the POS connect to our accounting and online store?

  Yes. Point of sale, resource planning, accounting and commerce are connected so a transaction is entered once and stays consistent everywhere it is used.

• What support do we get after go-live?

  Monitoring, patching and extension as trading changes, backup with tested recovery, and user access reviews as the team changes.
