A $3M Australian distributor with 10 staff across three showrooms is wasting ~2,500 hours/year on order admin because six legacy systems don't integrate, forcing manual data entry and paper-based workflows.

Off-the-shelf CRM, accounting, and database tools lack native integration, forcing duplicate manual data entry and a paper-based order pipeline that slows operations.

Implied Software Gaps

Digital order workflow that replaces paper folder stages with automated task routing
Centralized client data hub that propagates updates across all connected systems
