At a glance: MyntiQ Tech, a software and AI engineering company based in Ahmedabad, India and Danbury, Connecticut, USA, planned a phased ERPNext implementation for an industrial automation manufacturer in Ahmedabad. The plan moves 50–70 users off a desktop ERP in three phases over 26 weeks, starting with 9 core modules and GST compliance.

Overview

This case study covers the ERPNext rollout MyntiQ Tech planned for an Ahmedabad industrial automation company working in SCADA, panel manufacturing and project-based engineering. Around 50–70 users across sales, stores, production and projects are moving off a desktop ERP. Instead of a single big-bang go-live, the rollout is planned in three phases over 26 weeks.

Business Problem

  • Sales, stores, production and projects all ran on an ageing desktop ERP.
  • Switching every module on at once would put every department through change on the same day, which is a common way for ERP projects to stall.
  • Leads came from many sources, including IndiaMart, the website, telecalling, email and referrals, and each needed to be tracked properly.
  • Stores, warehousing and project support needed tools that matched how the team actually works.

How MyntiQ Tech Helped

  • Phase 1 (11 weeks): 9 core ERPNext modules, email integration and GST compliance.
  • Phase 2: 8 additional modules, plus WhatsApp and SMS.
  • Phase 3: advanced modules and AI features, built on clean operational data.
  • CRM lead sources: set up for IndiaMart, the website, telecalling, email and referrals.
  • Barcode scanning: for stores and warehousing.
  • Helpdesk: linked to customers and projects.
  • Microsoft email integration: so the team keeps working in the tools it already uses.

Business Outcomes Delivered

  • A rollout sequence that puts the daily essentials first, depth second, and AI once the data is ready.
  • Less disruption, because each department adopts the core system before more modules arrive.

For this 50–70 user industrial automation manufacturer, MyntiQ Tech planned 26 weeks in three phases. The first phase, covering 9 core modules, email integration and GST compliance, takes 11 weeks.
