High-Velocity Epicor Prophet 21 Architecture & Execution for Wholesale Distributors

We provide fractional P21 leadership and senior development bandwidth to mid-market distributors and PE-backed portfolios. Clear your project backlog, fix your reporting and SQL bottlenecks, and build your cloud migration plan ahead of Epicor’s 2028 on-premises feature sunset — without the bloat of a traditional agency.

Execution, Not Discovery Phases.

We don’t run audits to tell you what you already know. We parachute in and fix the bottlenecks your internal team doesn’t have the bandwidth to handle.

P21 Consultanting

Case Study 1 — Industrial Maintenance Products Distributor

  • Challenge: Fragmented data between Salesforce and Prophet 21 causing order-entry delays.
  • Solution: Architected a bi-directional integration that eliminated manual re-entry.
  • Result: ~89% reduction in order-processing time and a multiple-X increase in daily transaction capacity.

Case Study 2 — Texas Industrial Fastener Distributor

  • Challenge: Slow picking, inventory drift, and manual reporting draining the sales team.
  • Solution: Reconfigured custom SQL, automated broken order-entry workflows, optimized WWMS.
  • Result: Returned ~20 hours/week to the inside sales team and eliminated manual inventory overrides.
Who We Are
US-Led Enterprise Architecture. Senior Execution Bandwidth.

We are a boutique team of senior Prophet 21 architects and developers led by a former distribution IT manager. We don’t staff your project with rotating junior consultants, and we don’t offshore your strategy or your roadmap.

All architecture, QA, and roadmap planning are led directly by our senior US-based P21 architect. Execution is handled by a dedicated, vetted development bench — so you get senior-level strategy paired with the throughput to actually clear work, not just diagnose it. You work directly with the people doing the thinking.

Core Capabilities

Reporting & Data Visibility

Your team is exporting to Excel because the reports they need don’t exist. We build the Crystal Reports, SSRS reports, custom SQL views, and Power BI dashboards that give your operators and CFO real-time visibility — instead of month-end guesswork.

eCommerce & Website Integrations

Your web store and P21 shouldn’t be two separate worlds. We build and repair integrations between Prophet 21 and your eCommerce platform, B2B customer portals, and third-party apps — real-time inventory, pricing, and order flow without manual re-entry.

Business Rules That Match How You Operate

Out-of-the-box P21 rarely fits a distributor’s real process. We design and implement business rules, DynaChange screens, and workflow automations so the system enforces your process — reducing errors, training time, and order-entry friction.

Cloud Migration & API/Integration Work

Epicor’s final on-premises Prophet 21 feature release (2028.1) is targeted for May 2028, with Active Support through June 30, 2029. That’s a planning window, not an emergency — but the smart distributors are mapping it now. We untangle legacy SQL, custom rules, and Crystal Reports, and use the P21 REST APIs for clean data conversions on the path to Epicor Kinetic Cloud.

How We Work — Governance

Full Accountability. Zero Scope Creep.

You always know exactly what we’re working on and why. Instead of losing your requests in a noisy chat thread, your team submits work through a dedicated client portal with full audit trails, clear SLAs, and documentation on every change. You get the responsiveness of a partner with the discipline of an enterprise IT shop — every hour accounted for, every change traceable.
