0.1 CAPABILITIES_OVERVIEW
Direct engineering work. Platform direction included.
For many companies, the right first step is not a product purchase. It is figuring out why the current systems are failing, what data can be trusted, and which workflows are worth fixing first. Northwerk still does that work directly.
0.2 ENGAGEMENT_MODELS
MODEL_01
Technology Assessments
A focused review of a system, workflow, data problem, or infrastructure concern. You get clear findings, practical recommendations, and a path forward.
- ERP and data health checks
- Production reporting reviews
- Infrastructure and security assessments
- Portal and workflow discovery
MODEL_02
Project Work
Scoped builds and remediation work with defined outcomes. Good when the business already knows the problem and needs senior hands on the fix.
- Custom software and portals
- ERP and data integrations
- Reporting and KPI systems
- Infrastructure and deployment projects
MODEL_03
Retained Engineering
Ongoing development, integration, data, or technical leadership support when the work is broader than a single project but still needs senior ownership.
- Fractional technical leadership
- Application and data retainers
- Platform planning and pilot design
0.3 SERVICE_LINES
Technology Assessment
A focused audit of a business-critical system, workflow, data problem, or infrastructure concern. Often the fastest way to stop guessing and start fixing the right thing.
- Clear findings instead of vague recommendations
- Practical next steps tied to business impact
- Can stand alone or feed a later project or platform module discussion
Custom Software
Internal tools, portals, and workflow software built around how your business actually operates and connected to the systems you already run.
See: Enterprise Dealer Portal →- Customer, partner, and dealer portals
- Internal workflow tools and operational apps
- Legacy system replacement where generic software keeps missing the mark
ERP and Data Integration
Connections between ERP systems, databases, APIs, file exports, EDI, and operational tools, moving and reconciling data between systems. Also the forensic work when those connections are already failing.
See: ERP Data Integrity Recovery →- ERP-connected workflows and transaction plumbing
- EDI, export, and API integrations
- Repair of broken customizations and silent failure points
Data and Reporting
Dashboards, KPI frameworks, reporting layers, and data pipelines that help leadership trust the numbers and operations see what is happening sooner.
See: Production Visibility Platform →- Production and operational reporting
- KPI frameworks with consistent definitions
- Data cleanup, reconciliation, and structured pipelines
Applied AI & Agentic Systems
Production AI that earns trust: MCP tool platforms, retrieval and evaluation pipelines, and agentic workflows with human-in-the-loop review, built on governed access to your real data instead of public-chat shortcuts.
See: Agentic AI & MCP Platform →- MCP platforms that give applications and agents governed, audited access to your systems
- Agentic workflows with human-in-the-loop review, not unattended black boxes
- Retrieval, search, and LLM-as-a-judge evaluation so AI answers are measured, not assumed
Infrastructure and Deployment
Cloud, on-prem, hybrid, identity, backup, server, and network work where software depends on reliable infrastructure and accountable cutovers.
See: Multi-Site Acquisition Integration →- Acquisition integrations and identity work
- Server, network, and cloud projects
- Security posture improvements tied to operational reality
Website Development & SEO
Custom, fast websites that connect to the systems you already run and rank where your customers actually search. For businesses that want a bespoke build from the ground up.
See: Northwerk Templates →- Custom business websites built around your brand and workflows
- E-commerce and booking integration with the systems you already run
- Technical SEO, performance, and analytics
Not sure what you need?
Start with a technology assessment. It is usually the fastest way to see what is actually broken, what can be trusted, and what should happen next.
