Standard ERP modules cover 80% of what most businesses need. But some businesses have requirements in that remaining 20% that make or break operational efficiency. When the standard module cannot handle your specific process, Profezzo builds a custom application on the Frappe framework that does exactly what you need.
When standard ERP modules cannot handle your specific business requirement, we build custom Frappe applications from scratch. The result is a purpose-built system that fits your process perfectly and integrates natively with ERPNext if you are already on it.
Real-time production line monitoring, throughput tracking, quality checkpoint enforcement, and shift-wise production reports — built for your specific production floor layout and product mix, not a generic manufacturing template.
Unique product attributes, custom lot tracking, non-standard valuation methods, or complex multi-location movements that the standard inventory module cannot represent accurately — we model it precisely.
Management dashboards pulling data from multiple sources into a single real-time view. Shift-wise production, machine utilisation, rejection rates, and quality metrics visible on a screen on the factory floor or in the MD’s office.
Integrations with external systems — government portals (GST, e-way bill, e-invoicing), logistics partners, payment gateways, SMS/WhatsApp APIs, and customer or supplier portals — built as Frappe apps that integrate cleanly with your ERP.
Multi-level approval workflows with custom business rules that the standard Frappe workflow engine cannot handle — conditional routing based on value, category, or location; parallel approvals; escalation timers; and audit trail requirements.
Statutory reports for regulatory submissions that require specific formats not covered by standard ERP reports. Industry-specific compliance reports, government portal data exports, and board-level management reports in your exact format.
Custom Quality Output System across 7 production lines at peak throughput
APL Apollo Tubes, Kesda Unit operates 7 high-speed tube mill production lines. Each line produces multiple grades and sizes of steel tubes, each with specific quality parameters that must be measured, recorded, and certified at the point of production.
The standard ERPNext quality inspection module was not designed for this volume, this speed, or this level of per-production-line parameterisation. At peak throughput of 3.5 metres per second, quality data had to be captured and validated in real time without slowing down the line.
Profezzo built a custom Quality Output System (QOS) on the Frappe framework — purpose-built for this facility's production floor layout, product mix, and quality requirements.
This application was built on the Frappe framework to integrate natively with the existing ERPNext installation at the facility. Standard ERP customisation could not have met these performance and accuracy requirements.
We could build custom applications on any web framework. We choose Frappe because it gives our clients a platform that is proven, maintainable, and built to last.
A custom Frappe app installs alongside ERPNext on the same bench. It accesses the same database, the same authentication, and the same permission system. No API bridges. No data duplication.
The application source code belongs to you. It runs on Frappe, which is open source and actively maintained by a large global community. You are never dependent on a single vendor's continued existence.
Frappe's permission model is granular and well-tested across thousands of production deployments. Custom applications inherit the same role-based access control — no need to build authentication and permissions from scratch.
Frappe applications are responsive by design. A custom app built on Frappe works on mobile browsers and the Frappe mobile app without additional front-end development. Factory floor workers can use it on a shared tablet immediately.
Every custom development engagement follows a structured process to ensure what we build matches what you need.
We conduct workshops with your team to document the exact business requirement — every edge case, every data point, every report, every user role. Nothing is assumed.
We produce a technical specification document: data model, workflow logic, user interface wireframes, integration points, and performance requirements. You review and approve before development begins.
Development in sprints with weekly demos against the specification. User Acceptance Testing with your team on a test environment before production deployment. Changes captured formally.
Production deployment, user training, and a defined hyper-care period with Profezzo on standby. Full documentation of the application delivered as part of the engagement.
