System Integration & Data Pipeline Development

Pipelines from the systems of record

AI applications are only as good as the data they can access. Systems don't talk to each other. Manual exports create stale information. Real-time workflows need real-time data connections.

System Integration & Data Pipeline Development connects custom AI applications to existing systems - ERP, CRM, commerce platforms, data warehouses. Builds reliable data flows that keep AI tools current, accurate and useful without manual intervention.

For organisations building AI applications that need to work with real data in real operations, not sandbox environments.

What you get

Live data connections between AI applications and operational systems. Our customers use these integrations to keep workflow tools running on current information, not yesterday's exports.

Timeline:
4-8 weeks per integration depending on complexity
Deliverable:
Production data pipelines with monitoring, error handling, retry logic, documentation, and operational handover

How it works

Integration Planning

Map data requirements, identify source systems, define sync frequency, establish data governance requirements.

Pipeline Development

Build API connections, event listeners, data transformations, and sync logic between systems.

Security & Compliance

Implement authentication, encryption, access controls, audit logging, and compliance requirements.

Monitoring & Maintenance

Establish monitoring, alerting, error handling, and ongoing maintenance procedures.

What's required

System API documentation and access. IT/security stakeholder involvement. Test environments for validation. Realistic timelines for firewall approvals and security reviews.

"They connected our ERP, CRM, and WMS in six weeks. No rip-and-replace, just clean data flowing where it needed to go."

Common questions about system integration

Common questions about system integration

What does system integration cover here?

Connecting AI workflows to the systems and data your team already uses, including CRM, ERP, PIM, WMS, ecommerce platforms, reporting tools, spreadsheets and supplier data.

Do you replace existing integrations?

Not by default. We work with what is already in place where it does the job and only add new integrations where they are genuinely needed for the workflow.

How is data security handled?

Data access is defined per workflow, with clear rules on what data is used, where it flows and who can see results. We work to your security and privacy requirements.

What if our systems are old or messy?

That is the norm. The work is designed to fit around the reality of your stack rather than assume a clean architecture.

Who owns the integration afterwards?

You do. We document what is in place, hand it over cleanly and agree any ongoing support upfront so nothing becomes a black box.

Where should a business start?

Usually with one workflow where data or handovers between systems are causing real friction, such as order, stock or customer data moving between ERP, WMS and ecommerce. Get that flow right first, then extend.
