Independent software consulting
Custom software for manufacturers.
I'm Joseph Carter. I build and maintain the systems manufacturers run on — ERP integrations, production and shop-floor systems, and the tools off-the-shelf software doesn't cover.

What I do
From the plant floor
to the back office.
ERP Development & Integration
Extend, integrate, and maintain your ERP — homegrown or commercial — from custom features to full platform migrations.
Production & Shop Floor Systems
MES, production tracking, flexible job scheduling, and inventory tools that keep product moving through the plant.
Reporting & Dashboards
Dynamic, web-based reporting with Crystal Reports, Power BI, GrapeCity ActiveReports, and custom SQL solutions.
Tools Off the Shelf Doesn't Cover
EDI integrations, Android shop-floor apps, one-off utilities — custom software for the gaps packaged products leave behind.
Why work with me

Evenings and weekends available. I work around your schedule, not the other way round.
