Digital
Transformation
for Manufacturing Companies
Connect sales, production and finance systems to improve forecasting, margin visibility and operational efficiency.
Manufacturing businesses operate across complex supply chains, production schedules and commercial cycles.
Sales teams manage distributor relationships and key accounts. Operations oversee production planning and inventory. Finance monitors cost control and margin performance. When systems are disconnected, visibility suffers and inefficiencies increase.
Avrion helps manufacturing organisations connect CRM, ERP and operational systems into one structured digital environment.

Schedule a structured discovery conversation that will help define priorities and reduce risk.
The digital challenges facing Manufacturers
Manufacturing organisations often experience:
- Limited correlation between sales forecasts and production planning
- Disconnected CRM and ERP environments
- Inconsistent margin reporting
- Manual order processing
- Poor visibility across distributor or reseller networks
- Delays between confirmed orders and operational execution
As volume increases, complexity grows and errors occur.
What digital transformation should deliver in manufacturing
A structured digital environment enables you to:
- Align sales pipeline with production forecasting
- Connect CRM and ERP for order-to-cash visibility
- Improve distributor and channel management
- Track margin by product, sector or customer
- Automate operational workflows
- Strengthen executive reporting
The objective is commercial and operational alignment

What do our customers say?
“Our project involved coupling existing platforms with new CRM technologies, training and a complex project roll-out. Avrion managed the transition without fuss or any ‘catch-you’ extra fees – a job well done.”
David English – Restore plc“We can now see in real time how all of our opportunities are progressing. We also have automated reports in our Dashboard module showing the business sales performance and pipeline, which allows us to focus on each individual opportunity without any being left unnurtured. Avrion has now linked our Maximizer with Mailchimp to allow for focused marketing campaigns based on the data we add to the Address Book. We now have a clear sales process that can be tracked with clear ‘what’s next’ actions to implement.”
Craig Sansom – Prestige“We were looking for best service provider for our CRM system and we came across with Avrion in 2016 and since then we have never turned back in terms of CRM system. This was our best step to move with Avrion as they understood our requirement quickly with excellent solutions and also within our budget. Working with Avrion is wonderful experience; we never need to approach them for any issues as they are always one step ahead by taking regular follow-ups. They are quick and punctual in terms of completing project. We have undertaken many projects so far and are more than happy to say that their solution is up to the mark. Avrion's people are the greatest asset of the company. I really recommend Avrion not only CRM system but for many other IT solutions as well.”
Satish Ghaghada – CWC“I'd 100% recommend Avrion. It's been a dream working with them. They have helped us at every point in this process. I've worked with people in the past where there's a bit of tension, but with Avrion they always helped to direct our journey, in a way that was working with us as a partner, over anything else.”
Jasmin Dudden – Restore Datashred“With our workload and team outgrowing our old method of workflow management, we needed a solution. Having worked with Avrion in the past, we asked them to take a look. Dave, Nick and Sam took the time to go through our process with us. It was decided that a ticketing system was required - the guys set up what we required and assisted us whilst we inputted our data and got it going. I think the level of customer service we have received from Avrion is 5 stars.”
Mike Bevan – SPM Instrument UK“We would highly recommend Avrion for both CRM and tech support applications. We recently upgraded our tech support function for both internal and external support requests. This has improved our response times, planning, service level agreements and overview of the department. Avrion is always ready to suggest improvements and evolution for our business. A big thanks to Dave, Nick and Sam at Avrion for their work on this project.”
James Blair – SPM Instrument UK“Working with Avrion has been amazing from start to finish. We use Maximizer as a main system, however we required a bespoke quote tool building for our sales team. From start to finish, the integration of the software and support has been nothing short of phenomenal. Their entire team are very knowledgeable, efficient and nothing is ever too much. We look forward to using Avrion moving forward and continuing a great business relationship.”
Luke Hogg – Knoxford Fabrications“We have experienced a huge shift in the efficiency of the business with the all-round delivery of service.”
Tracey Hammond – Dengie“I’m using Power BI a lot more now than I did when we started with creating refreshable dashboards for the Senior Leadership Team and other management levels showing different elements of the business. We are doing this by implementing the data warehouse built by Avrion, which is very handy. I love Power BI and think it is such a great tool that every business can have/use as it turns your raw data into a story that shows different aspects from the company over time.”
Dan Costin – Restore Datashred“Avrion is an agile, approachable, friendly company. They are easy to deal with and deliver on what they set out to achieve.”
