Capabilities
What we deliver
-
Custom ERP development
Designed around your operational workflow rather than forcing a standard template — such as monitoring maintenance engineer status, history and automated reporting for a railway workshop.
-
Approval & document digitalization
Automated approvals for tendering, night-work operations and contract management, with document version control, audit trails and role-based permissions.
-
Workshop & production-line digitalization
Turning manual shop-floor processes at maintenance workshops, jewellery and food factories into digital workflows with less paper and re-keying.
-
System integration
Integrating weighing systems, IoT sensors, existing ERPs and other data sources to break information silos.
-
Dashboards & reporting
Real-time boards, KPI dashboards and management reports so leadership always knows what is happening.
-
Training & handover
User training, operations manuals and go-live support to ensure a smooth transition for your staff.
Solution details
The MTR workshop flagship
We built a custom ERP for an MTR maintenance workshop that achieved paperless operations and real-time data within three years, cutting management hours by 50%. The system is a digital maintenance brain — engineer status, history and reports are instantly available, and decisions are made on data.
Government and public bodies
We developed a digitalized tendering system for a government bureau that automates data entry, document version control and administrative approval — dramatically accelerating the bidding process. We have also built tailored systems for electronics workshops and night-work approval, securing de-energization plans to prevent accidents before midnight work begins.
Jewellery and manufacturing
At a jewellery factory in mainland China, our custom resource management system integrates with existing weighing systems to monitor more than 3,000 fabrication process types across over 10 procedures with full traceability.
Why GNS
- Process-first design instead of forcing standard templates
- Project managers with proven government and railway track record
- One partner from requirements analysis to training and handover
- 24/7 local support and continuous improvement after go-live
FAQ
Service questions
What is a custom ERP and how is it different from off-the-shelf ERP?
A custom ERP is designed around your workflow, so you do not change how you work to fit the software. Off-the-shelf ERP goes live faster but often requires process changes or add-on modules. GNS reviews your processes first and recommends the best fit.
How long does digital transformation take?
Depending on complexity, a single workshop or department typically completes phase one in 3–9 months; larger programmes such as the MTR workshop roll out in phases over about three years.
Can you integrate with our existing systems?
Yes. We use APIs and middleware to integrate existing ERPs, weighing systems, IoT sensors and other data sources so information flows consistently.
Which government processes can be digitalized?
Tender document digitalization and approval automation, contract management, night-work approvals and maintenance workshop management, among others — delivered with safety testing and complete documentation for procurement and audit.
