Manufacturing & Distribution

Your factory floor is connected.
Your CRM is not.

Dealer networks, distribution channels, and direct enterprise sales β€” all running on different data. We unify the CRM layer that connects them, for manufacturers across Europe, North America, and Asia-Pacific.

Manufacturing & Distribution β€” the global reality

"Manufacturing companies sell through dealers, distributors, and direct enterprise teams simultaneously. Each channel needs different data, different processes, and different CRM logic. Most CRMs handle one well. We design for all three β€” regardless of region."

Challenges

What Manufacturing teams tell us every week

01

Dealer and direct sales in separate systems

No single view across channels. Territory conflicts happen silently. Nobody knows what the dealer sold last quarter.

02

SAP shows different numbers than the CRM

Sales reports one figure. Finance reports another. Month-end reconciliation takes three days and nobody trusts either system.

03

Order-to-cash invisible in CRM

Sales closes a deal. What happens after -- production, logistics, invoice -- is completely invisible to the sales team.

04

Legacy ERP too old for modern CRM integration

No REST API. Data moved by spreadsheet every Monday morning. We work with BAPI and IDoc patterns too -- not just modern connectors.

Our approach

How Celumai works in manufacturing

01

Channel architecture first

We map dealer, distributor, and direct sales channels before touching the CRM. Each channel gets the right data model, the right pipeline stages, and the right territory rules.

02

ERP integration designed before built

SAP or Oracle integration architecture is documented -- field mapping, conflict resolution, sync frequency -- before a single connector is configured.

03

Adoption built for field teams

Manufacturing sales teams are in warehouses and on factory floors. We configure mobile-first CRM workflows built around how field reps actually work.

04

Compliance and quality data

ISO 9001 quality management data, REACH and RoHS compliance records, and export control obligations are designed into the data architecture from the start.

βš™οΈ

Regulatory context β€” global coverage

We design CRM architectures that satisfy ISO 9001 quality management data requirements, REACH and RoHS compliance for chemical and electronics manufacturers globally, export control regulations across UK, EU, and US, ERP audit trail obligations, and EDI integration patterns common in automotive and FMCG supply chains worldwide.

Marketing Operations Rebuild for a B2B Healthcare Company β€” From Campaign Chaos to Scalable Engine

B2B Healthcare Company

A B2B healthcare company had a marketing team of six producing campaigns manually from spreadsheets. No campaign tracking, no attribution, no lead scoring. HubSpot had been purchased twelve months earlier and barely used.
