When you choose Frontier ERP, you’re investing in more than just software — you’re gaining a partner committed to your long-term success.
At Friedman Corporation, we believe the most effective ERP systems aren’t just defined by features, but by expert support tailored to your business. That’s where our experienced professional services team comes in: guiding your implementation, helping you navigate challenges, and providing continuous support well beyond go-live.
Partnering with us isn’t just smart — it’s a strategic move that accelerates deployment, reduces risk, and maximizes your ERP investment’s ROI.

1. Accelerates Your Time-to-Value

Our Professional Services team provides a structured methodology, pre-built templates, and industry knowledge that avoid trial-and-error delays. Companies using implementation consultants see projects go live 40–60% faster than those implementing alone. (Source: Panorama Consulting)

2. Reduces Risk of Project Failure

Did you know that up to 75% of ERP projects fail due to poor planning and underestimating complexity? (Source: Lumenia). Our Professional Services mitigate failure by providing change management, scope control, and experienced project leadership. This is especially vital in manufacturing, where ERP must integrate the shop floor, inventory, and production planning.

3. Drives Best Practice Adoption

Our team will bring forward proven workflows and KPIs from similar manufacturers, allowing your organization to adopt best practices to optimize your operations. An example of this may be that one of our experienced consultants guides a manufacturer to shift from batch-based costing to activity-based costing, unlocking improved margin control.

4. Higher ROI on ERP Investment

Companies with professional support report higher ROI from ERP systems than those without expert support. This is largely due to faster deployments + fewer customizations + optimized usage = quicker cost recovery.

Our COMPASS Methodology: Your ERP Success

Friedman’s eight-phase COMPASS methodology is a structured roadmap designed to ensure smooth and successful deployment of manufacturing ERP systems. Your company is assigned a dedicated implementation team that will work directly with you throughout every step of the process, from initial planning through post-launch reviews.

The result? A streamlined implementation experience that’s grounded in industry knowledge, best practices, and a commitment to getting your business the tools it needs to thrive.

Start Strong With Implementation Process Analysis (IPA)

Your journey begins with Implementation Process Analysis (IPA), a deep dive into your current business processes to uncover bottlenecks, inefficiencies, and opportunities for improvement. Based on this analysis, we create a customized project plan with you and outline educational opportunities to help you get the most from your new Frontier ERP system.

From there, you’ll benefit from:

  • Consulting support that provides expert insight at every stage of your implementation
  • Data conversion services to ensure accurate and secure migration from legacy systems
  • Custom programming to tailor the ERP to your business, without overcomplicating future upgrades

Our professional team delivers dependable support and services that help your company avoid common pitfalls and maximize the return on your ERP investment.

Training That Builds Confidence

Effective use of ERP systems requires more than implementation—it demands continuous learning. That’s why we offer a variety of training programs to fit your schedule and learning style. These include:

  • Live and on-demand customer webinars
  • Tech Talks with our consultants
  • Our biennial user conference, CONVERGE

Need custom training? We offer on-site and remote sessions tailored to your business processes. It’s all part of our commitment to delivering professional support and services that empower your team to succeed.

The Frontier Documentation Wiki: Your Knowledge Hub

In addition to formal training, our Frontier Documentation Wiki serves as a robust resource with how-to guides, configuration tips, and frequently asked questions. This valuable tool fosters collaboration and gives your team a self-service way to expand their ERP knowledge.
