In 2017, Richinnovations made a bold move that would redefine the way small and medium enterprises (SMEs) manage their operations. The launch of NexERP, a flagship custom ERP solution, marked a turning point not only for Richinnovations but also for the businesses it served. NexERP was born out of a vision to simplify and streamline business processes for SMEs, enabling them to compete in an increasingly digital world.
The Need for NexERP
Before the launch of NexERP, SMEs faced significant challenges in managing their day-to-day operations. From inventory management to billing and accounting, many businesses relied on outdated, manual systems that were inefficient and prone to errors. The lack of affordable and customizable ERP solutions further widened the gap between SMEs and large enterprises that had access to advanced tools.
Recognizing this gap, the team at Richinnovations set out to create a solution that was not only affordable but also tailored to the unique needs of SMEs. NexERP was designed to address critical pain points such as inventory tracking, billing automation, accounting management, and reporting—all in one unified platform.
The Launch in 2017
The launch of NexERP in 2017 was a proud moment for the Richinnovations team. With years of research, development, and testing behind it, NexERP was introduced as a robust, scalable, and customizable ERP system that could cater to businesses across various domains. What set NexERP apart was its flexibility—it could be adapted to suit industries ranging from retail and FMCG to production, eCommerce, and hospitality.
The initial reception was overwhelming. SMEs quickly realized the potential of NexERP to transform their operations. The solution’s user-friendly interface, combined with its ability to integrate seamlessly with existing processes, made it a favorite among business owners. Within months, NexERP began gaining traction, and Richinnovations started onboarding clients who were eager to leverage the power of technology.
