Overview

CSB BASIC ERP is a turnkey, industry-specific ERP package designed for small and medium-sized companies in process industries. It delivers preconfigured core ERP functions (procurement, inventory, sales, basic production support, quality and traceability) so businesses can go live quickly — often within two weeks — with reduced implementation effort and cost compared with full bespoke ERP projects. The solution emphasises industry best practices, regulatory compliance for food and process industries, and minimal need for in-house IT expertise.
