Name an owner for every process.

Your Operation cannot be released

You bought the system. You kept the old process.

Six fields on this record fail validation. The ERP is doing exactly what it was set up to do. The process underneath it was never written down, so nobody can tell you how the work gets done.

Technical details Process owner must have a value in Operation: No.=OP-0001. It cannot be zero or empty.

  1. E1 · Process owner

    Two people know how it actually works. Both are busy.

    Cleared by line 10000
  2. E2 · Decision made in

    The ERP holds the data. The decision still happens in a spreadsheet.

    Cleared by line 20000
  3. E3 · Month-end close

    Month-end is a manual rescue, every month.

    Cleared by line 30000
  4. E4 · Audit findings

    The audit finds what the floor already knew.

    Cleared by line 40000
  5. E5 · Delivery date set by

    Sales promises a date. Operations finds out later.

    Cleared by line 20000
  6. E6 · Management report

    The report is late, so the meeting runs on opinion.

    Cleared by line 30000

None of these is a software problem yet. Each one clears when a line below is posted.

Fix the process before the software.

Process diagnosis

Two to three weeks. I walk the floor, read the data and interview the people who actually do the work. You get back the real map, every wait and handoff marked, and the list of steps the process doesn't need.

ERP that tells the truth

Dynamics 365 Business Central, Dynamics NAV, SAP Business One, Oracle Fusion. The process gets fixed first, then the configuration, then the extension. Four implementations, the latest end to end across two companies.

Systems when the tool doesn't exist

AL extensions for Business Central, document capture and a warehouse rebuilt around how material really moves, plus the architecture behind a pricing engine and a quality system. All running in production.

Quality system ownership

ISO 9001:2015 from registers and SOPs through internal audit to the evidence an external auditor accepts. I own one today: audits, SOPs, work instructions and risk registers across every department.

Workshops

The part where your team runs it without me. Your own process is the case study, on site or remote. The catalog is still a draft record.

Hand it over when it runs.

Seven systems that shipped, and all seven are in production. Four at work in Business Central, three of my own. No customer data, vendor names or production screenshots here.

SYS-05

Kanso (opens in a new tab)

Multi-tenant cloud quality management system, about 116,000 lines. Document control, objectives and KPIs, non-conformance and CAPA, DMAIC, process maps, SPC with Cp/Cpk, audits and a clause-to-evidence graph. Everything on this page, as software.

My own Live
SYS-01

AI document capture

Re-keying caused the most downstream defects, so it went first. Documents go straight to a vision model, match against open purchase orders, file to SharePoint and post their own cost.

At work Live
SYS-02

Pricing and surcharge engine

I helped design the architecture: a formula compiler and stack machine, so the business changes pricing logic without a developer. Built during volatile tariff and metals pricing.

At work Live
SYS-03

Quality management in Business Central

I helped design the architecture: AQL sampling, non-conformance with 8D, PPAP, calibration and labeling checks on native approval workflows, so every record leaves an audit trail.

At work Live
SYS-04

Warehouse

Standard warehousing didn't match how a magnetics plant moves material, so I mapped the movement and built to that. License plating, directed picking, per-line validation, a deliberate cost waterfall. The system of record.

At work Live
SYS-06

Rahma

Pregnancy and period tracker built for Arab and Muslim families, about 38,000 lines. Three roles, an AI companion, daily duas and Ramadan guidance.

My own Live
SYS-07

Mansuba

Chess learning app, about 7,000 lines, with its own engine from 500 to 1600 Elo. The hard part was getting the low end to blunder the way a person does.

My own Live

Build what holds the process.

Post Your Operation Status Open

Bring me the process nobody wants to own.

Posting sends this record to me. One line about the process that hurts, and roughly how big the operation is, is enough to start. Fractional process work, ERP rescues, quality system ownership and workshops. Remote from Amman, across US and European hours.
