Implementing new manufacturing software might seem like a big undertaking, but with our “Crawl, Walk, Run” approach, we make it manageable and efficient. The timeline for getting your system fully operational typically ranges from 2 to 16 weeks, and we work closely with you to ensure a smooth transition.

Here’s what influences your implementation speed and how our process benefits you:

• Your Team’s Engagement and Resources: The more your team embraces the change and can dedicate time to the process, the faster you’ll see results. Our approach is designed to foster buy-in, making it easier for your team to adapt and contribute effectively.
• Product and Process Simplicity: While complex operations might take a little longer, our “Crawl, Walk, Run” method breaks down the implementation into achievable stages. This means you start seeing value quickly, even with intricate products and business processes. We tackle complexities step-by-step, ensuring nothing feels overwhelming.
• Data Readiness: Don’t let existing data concern you! Whether it’s parts, bills of materials, suppliers, or customers, we’re here to help you prepare and migrate your information seamlessly. Our expertise in data management minimizes this common hurdle, getting you to the “run” stage faster.

Our carefully structured implementation process is built to help you manage the risks of changing systems. We focus on getting you up and running as quickly as possible, ensuring you start realizing the benefits of your new software without unnecessary delays or stress.

• We host on one of the largest providers in the world (Akamai) who have dedicated teams ensuring security of their data centres and access to those servers.
• We minimise the number of people who are able to access the servers or directly interact with the data to the most highly trained and experienced team members.
• All internal systems including those related to support, infrastructure and code management require every user to have 2FA enabled to reduce the chances of unauthorised access.
• Our software stack is built on popular and established frameworks and libraries used by thousands of the top companies in the world to ensure we are working on a base that is regularly monitored and updated for security vulnerabilities.
• We use automated weekly appraisals of our full technology stack including dependencies to highlight any software vulnerabilities so we can quickly apply those updates.
• All data is encrypted over TLS in transit between client and server. TLS is an industry standard cryptographic protocol that encrypts data sent over the internet.
• All customer data is automatically firewalled to their organisation within the Flowlens infrastructure.

Yes you own your data at all times. 

We used to offer a free trial, but we found that buyers aren’t prepared for the reality of ‘trying out’ a system that could eventually run most of their key business operations in just a couple of weeks. Instead we agree to create a dedicated environment, using your product data if you have it handy, and we spend the time (over a 2-4 week period) with you, understanding your business processes, and then diving into the needs of each function in a team or functional workshop. This lets you see it all in detail, and we learn about your requirements. If we don’t think Flowlens is a fit, we’ll qualify out. Read more here, or please book an initial discovery call, and let’s start talking about your needs.

Monthly, risk free contract.
