  • NetSuite ERP, Services

Finance teams are being tested like never before. Rising costs, tightening compliance, unpredictable supply chains, and shifting customer expectations are reshaping how organisations operate and grow. 

While these pressures may seem disruptive, they’re also powerful catalysts for transformation. They offer finance leaders an opportunity to rethink not just how they manage numbers, but how they drive value. 

Think of how far we’ve come: from manual spreadsheets to cloud-native systems, from static month-end reports to real-time dashboards, from reactive processes to proactive forecasting. This isn’t just digital progress; it’s a reinvention of finance as a strategic force within the organisation. 

At the heart of this shift? Smarter financial management, powered by connected systems that do more than automate. They give finance leaders clarity, control, and the confidence to drive decisions. NetSuite is one such platform – trusted by organisations across sectors to navigate complexity while unlocking scalable, sustainable growth. 

Navigating uncertainty with clarity

Whether you’re overseeing the finances of a construction company juggling multiple projects, a field service operation managing technicians and SLAs, or a distribution business working with tight margins – visibility is everything. 

Without clear, accurate, real-time insight, strategy stalls. Errors compound. Opportunities are missed. And finance teams are left firefighting instead of forecasting. 

NetSuite changes that. 

By unifying data across departments, from finance and procurement to inventory and operations; NetSuite gives finance leaders a single, trusted source of truth. That means faster closes, easier compliance, clearer cash flow insights, and the ability to pivot with speed when market conditions change. 

At OSSM, we work with businesses across Ireland to implement NetSuite in a way that fits their sector, their systems, and their strategy. We don’t just bring software, we bring sector experience, technical know-how, and a deep understanding of what today’s finance teams need to succeed. 

Building Stronger Foundations with NetSuite ERP Benefits 

Every organisation operates within its own reality – shaped by its sector, customer base, processes, and goals. That’s why OSSM’s approach focuses on delivering the NetSuite ERP benefits that matter most to each organisation’s specific goals and requirements. 

We tailor NetSuite to the specific needs of your finance team. From custom dashboards that show project profitability in real-time to automated approval workflows and audit trails for compliance-heavy industries, we design finance-first solutions that reflect how you actually work. 

And because our team is based locally in Dublin and Belfast, we provide hands-on, personal support at every stage of your growth. 

Empowering teams to lead the change

Technology alone doesn’t transform finance. People do. 

One of the biggest blockers to ERP success isn’t technical, it’s cultural. If finance teams aren’t confident in the tools they’re using, systems won’t be fully adopted, and value will be lost. 

That’s why OSSM takes user adoption seriously. Our NetSuite training programmes are designed specifically for finance users. We focus on what matters most – from daily processes like invoice management and bank reconciliations, to more strategic tasks like forecasting and reporting. 

When teams understand the “why” behind the system, not just the “how” – they’re better equipped to use it as a driver of strategic change, not just a back-office tool. 

Staying future-fit with proactive support 

Finance doesn’t sleep, and neither should your systems. Whether you’re preparing for audit, managing end-of-month close, or reconciling hundreds of transactions a day, you need performance you can count on. 

That’s why our relationship with customers doesn’t stop at go-live. We provide ongoing NetSuite support and regular health checks to ensure your system continues to deliver long after implementation. 

We don’t just fix problems, we anticipate them. From flagging underused modules to optimising integrations or flagging potential process gaps, our support is built around helping your finance team stay ahead of what’s next. 

Innovation that solves real finance problems  

True innovation in finance isn’t about bells and whistles; it’s about solving real problems better. 

At OSSM, our in-house development team extends NetSuite with powerful customisations and add-ons designed around real-world needs. From sector-specific reporting packs to complex approval chains, bank integrations, or budget forecasting tools, we build what your finance team needs to work smarter. 

This ability to tailor NetSuite means your finance function can keep pace with the rest of the business, no matter how your operations evolve. 

Financial growth that’s built to last 

As industries continue to face uncertainty, finance teams are stepping up to play a more strategic role in driving resilience, growth, and innovation. 

Whether you’re looking to modernise financial operations, improve cross-department visibility, or future-proof your organisation’s performance, we’re ready to help. 

Let’s talk about how NetSuite, delivered by OSSM, can unlock smarter financial growth for your business.

Why NetSuite ERP is the smart choice for AI-driven business insights

AINetSuite ERP
NetSuite ERP Benefits in construction
  • AI, NetSuite ERP

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being increasingly integrated into business functions across multiple industries. It can save time by carrying out traditionally time-consuming tasks, assist with data-based decision-making, and help to improve business operations. 

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) is a key area that is seeing rapid AI acceleration and, according to a 2023 survey by IDC, over 65% of organisations believe that AI is critical to their ERP system. This highlights that businesses need to embrace and invest in AI solutions to remain competitive and keep pace with the rate of change. 

Oracle’s leading NetSuite ERP system aims to deliver a significant boost in productivity for customers by embedding AI capabilities deeply within the solution. Here are seven reasons why NetSuite’s AI-powered ERP platform, delivered by OSSM, is the intelligent choice to improve processes and leverage insights for your business.  

1. Seamless AI integration 

NetSuite is seamlessly integrating AI across its platform, and these rollouts require no further training or installations for users. NetSuite’s AI tools are accessible to everyone, fully embedded, and available immediately. ‘Ask Oracle’ is one of NetSuite’s latest features, which allows natural language searches to make AI-powered commands much more efficient.  

2. Customisable AI features 

NetSuite’s AI capabilities are fully customisable and flexible to allow businesses to use their own application programming interfaces (APIs) to suit their individual needs. Users have the option to modify the AI features depending on their workflows and processes within the dynamic NetSuite ERP platform. With the in-built SuiteScript GenAI, developers can further customise the AI capabilities to create unique and bespoke solutions for businesses. 

While Text Enhance may seem like a smaller feature, it works in tandem with Prompt Studio to help users craft meaningful AI-generated content. This provides a simple starting point for AI-assisted communications and documentation. 

3. AI and data-driven decision-making  

Leveraging their organisational data can help businesses to make informed decisions quickly and accurately using AI. SuiteAnalytics Assistance, another of NetSuite’s AI-driven tools, can assist users in analysing data and building reports based on the results. While SuiteAnalytics Assistant is expected to become more widely available in the next release, it shows NetSuite’s direction in enabling smarter, more intuitive analytics capabilities.  

It can aid in strategic decision-making without needing in-depth technical expertise. In addition, the Financial Exception Management tool can help to detect financial anomalies to help businesses avoid costly errors and make smarter financial decisions.  

It’s also worth noting NetSuite’s continued investment in tools like NSPB (NetSuite Planning and Budgeting) and NSAW (NetSuite Analytics Warehouse). These platforms represent where much of the AI innovation is currently focused, offering powerful forecasting, budgeting, and reporting functionality. 

NSAW acts as a robust data warehouse – similar to tools like Power BI, that enables businesses to pull in data from external sources or spreadsheets and gain deeper insights across their operations. 

4. Efficiency at the core 

The foundation of NetSuite’s AI capabilities is efficiency. Core business functions such as finance, supply chain, and sales can be easily automated and optimised using AI. This helps to reduce manual workloads, while also helping to uncover deeper or hidden trends. For example, the Supply Chain Control Tower can increase visibility of bottlenecks and supply disruptions, which helps businesses to quickly identify and proactively react to issues that arise.  

5. Enhanced personalisation 

NetSuite’s AI-driven Intelligent Item Recommendations function allows businesses to create personalised suggestions for customers, using data insights to recommend products or services based on historical behaviours. AI-driven personalisation creates a more well-rounded customer experience, ultimately leading to increased growth and loyalty. It can also support business’ upselling and cross-selling opportunities.  

6. Built for the future

Built on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI), NetSuite’s AI is supported by industry-standard security and scalability. Businesses have the flexibility to scale and grow, safe in the knowledge that their data is secure. The high standards within OCI give businesses peace of mind, supporting innovation and enabling them to focus on future planning. 

7. Real-time interaction and accessibility 

NetSuite is making AI accessible to an increased number of users by allowing direct interaction with the platform. Users can input commands or ask questions in a conversational way, empowering businesses to harness the power of AI without needing technical expertise.  

To sum up… 

Among the many NetSuite ERP Benefits for businesses, the platform provides highly efficient, customisable, and seamless AI features and integrations. A key part of the future of business is undoubtedly AI, and this AI-powered ERP platform provides a cost-efficient and data-driven way to help businesses to grow, innovate, and thrive in the modern digital landscape.

Are You Getting the Most Out of Your NetSuite ERP?

  • NetSuite ERP, Services

Many businesses using NetSuite assume that once the system is live, the hardest part is over. But what happens when things don’t run the way you expected? You log in each day only to see a dashboard that doesn’t reflect what’s happening in your business. Reports take longer to generate than decisions take to make. And instead of empowering your teams, your ERP feels like just another task to manage. 

This is a common scenario, particularly for businesses that have undergone a NetSuite ERP implementation as part of a global rollout. While NetSuite is a powerful tool, it only delivers real value when it’s tailored to your specific business processes, team structures, and strategic goals. 

“We often see finance and operations teams sitting on incredible functionality but not using it because their NetSuite system wasn’t implemented with their local needs in mind,” says Brian Doherty, NetSuite Systems Design Specialist at OSSM. 

In this blog, we’ll examine why your NetSuite setup may not be delivering optimal results and outline ten practical ways to enhance its performance. From improving dashboards and KPIs to accessing local support, we’ll share tips to help you get more from your ERP system. You’ll also get a preview of OSSM’s upcoming NetSuite Masterclass, led by experts Brian Doherty and Laura Delaney.  

Common Post-Go-Live Challenges 

From the outside, a successful implementation may look seamless. But operationally, many users are dealing with ongoing frustrations that stem from a one-size-fits-all setup. Some of the most common challenges include:  

Dashboards that are too generic or cluttered 
Many businesses still operate with dashboards that haven’t been personalised for users or roles 

No one to call when something doesn’t work 
Without local support, even simple fixes can become major disruptions 

Missed training opportunities 
Go-live training often focuses on functionality, not day-to-day usability, leaving users unsure of how to optimise the system 

Inefficient financial processes 
Reporting, budgeting, and approvals may still be done manually, even though NetSuite can automate them 

Inconsistent data visibility 
Users struggle to find the information they need, or worse, are relying on outdated or incomplete reports 

It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking your system is “good enough.” But with the right setup and support, NetSuite can evolve into a true strategic asset – one that actively drives business growth on a daily basis. 

10 Ways to Get More from Your NetSuite  

To help businesses unlock the true value of their NetSuite investment, we have compiled 10 practical insights for finance and operational leaders who want to level up their ERP experience: 

1. Make your dashboard meaningful 

Your homepage should reflect your priorities – custom KPIs, role-specific reminders, and real-time financial visibility 

2. Simplify what you see 

If your dashboard feels cluttered, it probably is – strip it back to the tiles and portlets that help you make decisions faster 

3. Use custom KPIs to your advantage 

Pre-set KPIs are a great starting point, but tailored metrics will tell you much more about your performance 

4. Improve short-term cash flow visibility 

With the right dashboard setup, you should be able to spot trends and risks before they become issues 

5. Distinguish between Admin and User views 

Knowing how to control what others see (and why) can improve efficiency across departments 

6. Highlight the right customer and vendor data 

Quick access to recent records and interactions saves time and enhances customer service 

7. Use reminders for accountability 

Set task-based triggers that keep everyone aligned, from finance to fulfilment 

8. Make reporting easier to digest 

A few dashboard tweaks can replace hours of manual report building each month 

9. Improve collaboration across teams 

With personalised views and shared data, teams can work from a single source of truth 

10. Make sure your system evolves with you 

Business needs change, so should your NetSuite setup 

“When you log into NetSuite, you should instantly see 95% of what you need, in one glance,” says Laura Delaney, Sales Account Manager at OSSM. “It’s not just about functionality but about giving users confidence in their numbers and their decisions.” 

Expert Help When You Need It Most 

At OSSM, we work closely with businesses across the UK and Ireland to make NetSuite work for them – not the other way around. Our services go beyond implementation. We help businesses assess their current configuration, identify gaps, and re-align NetSuite to match how they actually work. 

Our team understands that local support matters. You need someone you can speak to, who understands your compliance landscape, your market pressures, and your business model. 

“It’s not unusual for businesses to tell us they feel stranded after their initial implementation,” says Brian. “They’re left without ongoing support, or the system has been built around someone else’s idea of how they should operate.” 

If this sounds familiar, it might be time to consider a setup review, or a practical learning session tailored to real business use cases. 

Coming Soon: Practical Support for NetSuite Users 

If you’re tired of “making do” with a system that doesn’t fully support your business, it may be time to explore your options. OSSM is launching a free Masterclass series designed specifically for existing NetSuite users, helping you get more from your system without the need for expensive upgrades or time-consuming projects. 

Led by experts Brian Doherty and Laura Delaney, the first session in the series will focus on fine-tuning dashboards, leveraging KPIs, and addressing the most common challenges faced by users in the UK and Ireland.

How Intelligent Business Strategies Cut Costs and Drive Sustainability in 2025

ESGNetSuite ERP
  • ESG, NetSuite ERP

In an era where sustainability is more than just a corporate buzzword, organisations are under increasing pressure to track and minimise their carbon footprint, comply with evolving regulations, and align with ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) goals. At OSSM, we are committed to helping businesses achieve sustainability targets without compromising on performance or profitability. 

Through our partnership with Simble, a leader in energy management technology, we offer cutting-edge solutions that not only enhance energy efficiency but also integrate seamlessly with NetSuite. By leveraging Simble’s CarbonView and SimbleSense tools, businesses can adopt intelligent business strategies for sustainability—improving reporting accuracy, reducing waste, and making informed decisions that lead to long-term cost savings. When combined with NetSuite ERP benefits, these tools provide a powerful solution for optimising financial and operational efficiency. In this blog, we’ll explore how these innovative tools work, the benefits of integrating them with NetSuite, and how they can help businesses drive both sustainability and financial efficiency.

Why Sustainability Matters for Businesses Today 

Before exploring the technological tools, it’s important to understand why sustainability is a key driver of business success in 2025. Investors, customers, and stakeholders are increasingly holding businesses accountable for their environmental impact, making ESG initiatives a critical aspect of long-term success. 

By adopting smarter energy management solutions, businesses can: 

• Reduce operational costs by identifying inefficiencies and optimising energy use 

• Ensure compliance with national and international sustainability regulations 

• Improve their competitive advantage by demonstrating a commitment to ESG initiatives 

• Enhance financial reporting accuracy by incorporating sustainability data into business performance metrics 

CarbonView: A Smarter Way to Manage Carbon Emissions 

Understanding and managing carbon emissions is crucial for businesses looking to meet sustainability targets. Simble’s CarbonView provides a centralised platform to monitor, measure, and report on carbon footprints across multiple locations. By automating utility data entry and enhancing sustainability tracking, businesses can: 

• Ensure compliance with environmental standards and regulations 

• Identify areas for emissions reduction and energy savings 

• Gain actionable insights through automated reporting and analytics 

CarbonView’s intelligent analytics not only help businesses track carbon emissions but also provide visibility into energy consumption trends. This allows decision-makers to implement more effective sustainability initiatives while also identifying cost-saving opportunities. By consolidating data from multiple sources, businesses gain a holistic view of their environmental impact, making it easier to set realistic reduction targets and track progress. 

Another advantage of CarbonView is its ability to validate utility bills, ensuring that businesses are only paying for the energy they use. This feature not only improves financial oversight but also helps in identifying billing discrepancies that may have otherwise gone unnoticed. 

SimbleSense: Real-Time Energy Insights for Smarter Decisions 

For businesses with high energy consumption – such as manufacturing, logistics, and retail, understanding usage patterns is essential to reducing waste and lowering operational costs. SimbleSense provides real-time energy monitoring, enabling businesses to: 

• Detect inefficiencies and hidden energy costs 

• Leverage IoT-powered sensors to track energy use across assets 

• Automate energy-saving actions based on demand 

By offering a live view of energy consumption, SimbleSense helps businesses take immediate action to optimise energy use – whether through turning off idle equipment, reducing peak-time consumption, or integrating renewable energy solutions. The result? Lower costs, improved efficiency, and a more sustainable business model. 

Additionally, SimbleSense enables businesses to forecast future energy consumption based on historical data. This predictive capability allows organisations to make informed decisions about energy procurement, reducing exposure to fluctuating energy prices. With this level of insight, businesses can negotiate better contracts with energy providers and optimise their energy sourcing strategies. 

Why Integrate Simble with NetSuite?  

Combining Simble’s powerful tools with NetSuite allows businesses to unify financial, operational, and sustainability data within a single cloud-based platform, offering: 

• Comprehensive Sustainability Reporting: Businesses can align sustainability efforts with financial performance, tracking carbon reductions alongside cost savings. 

• Improved Compliance and Risk Management: Automated reporting ensures adherence to evolving ESG regulations while reducing manual errors. 

• Enhanced Decision-Making: By consolidating energy usage data with financial metrics, organisations can optimise resource allocation and drive efficiency. 

By integrating sustainability data into NetSuite, businesses can generate reports that not only fulfil compliance requirements but also provide transparency for stakeholders. Investors and customers are increasingly demanding detailed ESG disclosures, and having a unified platform for sustainability and financial reporting simplifies this process. 

How OSSM and Simble Can Help Future-Proof Your Business  

Sustainability is no longer a choice, it’s a necessity. Businesses that fail to take action risk falling behind in a market that increasingly values environmental responsibility.  

At OSSM, we are dedicated to helping businesses navigate the transition to more sustainable operations while ensuring financial viability. Our expertise in NetSuite, combined with Simble’s innovative energy solutions, provides companies with the tools they need to optimise their sustainability strategies. By leveraging financial accounting ERP capabilities alongside advanced energy management, businesses can gain deeper insights, improve reporting accuracy, and drive long-term cost savings. Please feel free to get in touch with us for a free consultation on how our integrated solutions can help lower costs, enhance energy efficiency, and achieve your ESG goals.

Why NetSuite SuiteSuccess Starter Edition Is the Right Choice for Growing Businesses

NetSuite ERPNetSuite Financial ManagementNetSuite Starter Edition
  • NetSuite ERP, NetSuite Financial Management, NetSuite Starter Edition

Amid increasing competition and evolving market demands, growing businesses across Ireland face mounting pressure to optimise operations while preparing for expansion. Many ambitious businesses find themselves trapped between entry-level accounting software and enterprise systems that exceed their current needs and budget. NetSuite SuiteSuccess Starter Edition bridges this gap perfectly, offering a comprehensive cloud ERP solution tailored specifically for growing businesses ready to take the next step in their journey. 

The Growth Dilemmas Facing Small and Medium Businesses 

Growth brings exciting opportunities but also introduces new operational challenges:  

• Resource limitations: Growing teams need to get the most out of their resources, and inefficient processes can quickly become a costly burden.  

• System fragmentation: Many businesses use separate systems for accounting, inventory, and customer management, leading to data silos that slow down decision-making.  

• Visibility gaps: Without unified data, management lacks the real-time insights needed to make informed strategic decisions. 

• Scalability roadblocks: As customer bases expand, legacy systems struggle to accommodate increased transaction volumes and complexity. 

• Compliance complexity: Meeting regulatory requirements in Ireland requires strong financial controls and accurate reporting.  

These challenges can hold businesses back, forcing teams to spend time on manual workarounds instead of driving growth and enhancing customer experience. 

NetSuite SuiteSuccess Starter Edition: Built for Growing Businesses 

The SuiteSuccess Starter Edition represents a strategic investment in business infrastructure that eliminates the limitations of basic accounting systems. Unlike standalone software solutions, it delivers an all-in-one system that integrates financials, inventory management, CRM functionality, and project tracking within a single, cloud-based platform. 

This integration removes the need for duplicate data entry, simplifies reconciliation, and gives management a clear, real-time view of business operations – which is a key advantage for companies gearing up for growth. 

Tailored Solutions to Match Your Business Model 

Understanding that business requirements vary across industries and operational models, NetSuite offers flexible Starter Edition configurations: 

• Core Financials: Perfect for service-oriented businesses requiring robust financial management, reporting capabilities, and basic CRM functionality. 

• Inventory Management: Ideal for product-based businesses that need advanced inventory control, order management, and fulfilment capabilities alongside core financials. 

• Project Management: Designed for professional services firms and businesses that deliver client projects, offering sophisticated project tracking, resource allocation, and billing functionality. 

Each configuration builds upon NetSuite’s foundational capabilities while addressing the specific operational requirements of different business models.

Key Advantages of NetSuite Starter Edition  

1. Unified Business Intelligence

With NetSuite, your entire team works from a single source of truth. Sales representatives access customer histories before making calls, the finance team gains visibility into outstanding orders, and management reviews real-time dashboards showing key performance indicators across the business. This connectivity eliminates information gaps and empowers more strategic decision-making. 

2. Scalable Architecture

Unlike entry-level systems that require disruptive migrations as businesses grow, NetSuite’s cloud architecture scales seamlessly. Whether you’re adding new users, expanding your product catalogue, entering international markets, or adding new business entities, the platform grows alongside your ambitions without requiring system replacement. 

3. Process Automation

Manual processing wastes valuable talent and introduces errors. NetSuite automates routine tasks including: 

• Invoice generation and distribution 

• Bank reconciliation and payment processing 

• Inventory updates and reordering 

• Financial close procedures and compliance reporting 

• Customer communications and follow-ups 

This automation not only reduces operational costs but also improves accuracy and customer satisfaction through more consistent execution. 

4. Financial Control and Compliance

For businesses operating in Ireland, maintaining compliance with VAT regulations, Making Tax Digital requirements, and financial reporting standards is non-negotiable. NetSuite delivers built-in compliance capabilities, including: 

• Automated VAT calculations and reporting 

• MTD-compliant tax filing preparation 

• Configurable approval workflows 

• Audit trail tracking for all financial transactions 

• Customisable financial reports that satisfy regulatory requirements 

These capabilities reduce compliance risk whilst providing management with confidence in financial accuracy. 

5. Future-Proof Technology

Technology investments should serve both immediate needs and long-term ambitions. NetSuite’s continuous update model ensures your business always operates on current technology without disruptive upgrades. This approach delivers ongoing improvements and new capabilities without additional implementation projects. 

OSSM’s Implementation Approach

As an expert NetSuite solution provider in Ireland, OSSM brings proven expertise to every implementation. Our approach combines NetSuite’s SuiteSuccess methodology with our deep understanding of local business requirements: 

1. Strategic Assessment: We begin by understanding your business objectives, operational pain points, and growth ambitions to identify the optimal Starter Edition configuration.

3. Knowledge Transfer: Our comprehensive training programme ensures your team maximises system capabilities from day one. 

4. Continuous Optimisation: Beyond go-live, we provide ongoing support and periodic system reviews to identify new optimisation opportunities as your business evolves. 

This structured approach minimises implementation risk whilst accelerating your return on investment. 

Investing in Growth Infrastructure    

For growing businesses in Ireland, technology infrastructure choices play a crucial role in shaping their growth. NetSuite SuiteSuccess Starter Edition is more than just a software upgrade – it’s a platform that eliminates operational constraints, enhances decision effectiveness, and provides the scalability needed to support your business ambitions.  

Partnering with OSSM for your NetSuite implementation gives you more than just powerful technology – you get a team of experienced advisors dedicated to your long-term success.

How Smart ERP Enhances Manufacturing Performance by Solving Key Challenges

Manufacturing - SolutionsNetSuite ERP
  • Manufacturing - Solutions, NetSuite ERP

In today’s manufacturing landscape, staying ahead requires optimising every aspect of operations. Efficiency and precision are essential for businesses to thrive and grow in this competitive industry. However, many manufacturers face challenges that affect productivity, quality, and profitability. 

NetSuite Advanced Manufacturing delivers a single, integrated cloud solution that replaces the disconnected systems manufacturers often rely on. Built on NetSuite ERP, it keeps manufacturing processes seamlessly connected to financial reports, inventory management, and outstanding orders in real time. This integration improves efficiency and supports business growth.

Common Challenges in Manufacturing

1. Inefficient Operations and Lack of Visibility

One of the most pressing challenges manufacturers face is inefficient operations and lack of visibility across their business. Inadequate systems and manual processes limit real-time visibility into inventory levels, production schedules, supply chain management, and financials, leading to production delays and mismanagement. 

NetSuite Solution: NetSuite provides a centralised platform that integrates all core business functions, creating real-time data visibility and business awareness. Manufacturers can track production progress, monitor supply chain movements, and optimise resource allocation from a single system. This ensures smoother workflows and seamless communication between departments, reducing downtime and improving overall operational efficiency. 

2. High Production Costs

Manufacturers struggle with rising production costs due to inefficiencies, wasted materials, and supply chain issues. Poor planning and lack of control over supply chain and inventory management further increase these costs. Fluctuating raw material prices and increasing operational expenses strain profitability. 

NetSuite Solution: NetSuite’s advanced resource planning, supply chain, and inventory management features help businesses manage costs efficiently and reduce waste through seamless system integration and automation. Predictive analytics and real-time data enable manufacturers to anticipate supply and demand fluctuations, allowing them to adjust procurement strategies for cost-effective production. 

3. Delayed Time to Market

Getting products to market quickly is critical for competitiveness. Delays in production due to lack of real-time data, supply chain disruptions, and inefficient order processing can slow this process. Without an agile, integrated system, manufacturers struggle to adapt to changing demand, leading to lost sales opportunities. 

NetSuite Solution: NetSuite’s integrated supply chain management and production planning tools enhance operations, reducing lead times and improving coordination between teams. Workflow automation facilitates efficient order processing and production scheduling, accelerating time to market. 

4. Over-Reliance on Multiple Systems

Many manufacturers depend on multiple platforms and third-party tools for accounting, inventory management, supply chain management, and production tracking. This fragmented approach creates inefficiencies, data errors, and increased operational risks. Disconnected systems create data silos, making it difficult to gain a holistic view of operations. 

NetSuite Solution: NetSuite’s comprehensive ERP solution eliminates the need for multiple platforms. Its end-to-end functionality integrates every aspect of business management across departments, reducing complexity, improving data accuracy, and providing complete visibility of your entire operation. 

The Benefits of NetSuite for Manufacturers 

NetSuite’s advanced ERP capabilities offer numerous benefits to optimise manufacturing operations: 

• Improved Operational Effectiveness – Real-time visibility and automation enhance efficiency across departments, optimising production schedules and reducing downtime. 

• Reduced Cost to Produce – Optimised procurement, resource planning, and waste reduction lower production costs while maintaining high standards. 

• Faster Time to Value – Efficient workflows and automation accelerate market readiness, allowing quick adaptation to changing demands. 

• Less Reliance on Multiple Platforms – A fully integrated system reduces IT complexity, lowers costs, and improves data accuracy across the organisation. 

• Improved Quality and Service – Automated processes ensure consistent product quality and compliance while reducing errors and delays. 

• Single Source of Truth – Centralised data improves decision-making and reduces errors as all departments access the same accurate, real-time information. 

• Seamless Integration – NetSuite ERP connects all business aspects, improving coordination and creating more efficient cross-departmental operations.

Integrating Field Service Management: One System for Your Entire Business

Field Service ManagementNetSuite ERP
  • Field Service Management, NetSuite ERP

As we kick off 2025, the field service management (FSM) landscape is undergoing a change, driven by rapid technological advancements. To stay competitive, businesses must rethink how they operate in the field. In an era where efficiency and customer satisfaction are vital, integrating FSM with a company’s core operations has shifted from being a luxury to an essential strategy. 

In this blog, we’ll delve into the benefits of FSM integration, the key features to prioritise in 2025, and how NetSuite Field Service Management helps businesses enhance productivity, improve customer experiences, and achieve sustained success. 

Why Integration Matters  

Companies are no longer willing to work with siloed systems that create inefficiencies, manual workarounds, and missed opportunities. Integration allows businesses to unify all aspects of field service operations – from scheduling and dispatching to billing and inventory management – into a single, cohesive platform. 

By natively connecting to NetSuite ERP, NetSuite ensures field service teams have real-time access to job details, customer history, inventory levels, and more. This centralised data fosters quicker decision-making, better communication, and faster resolution of service requests. 

How Integration Drives Business Efficiency 

Businesses adopting integrated FSM solutions see significant improvements in efficiency. By connecting FSM to critical functions like accounting, inventory, and CRM, companies create a seamless ecosystem that supports every part of their operations. 

For example, NetSuite’s integrated scheduling tools allow dispatchers to allocate jobs effectively, using real-time data on technician availability, location, and skillsets. The result? Reduced downtime, improved resource utilisation, and higher first-time fix rates. With features like drag-and-drop schedule boards and automation, NetSuite ensures your field service operations run smoothly and efficiently. 

NetSuite Field Service Management Features 

As businesses in the field service industry look to evolve and stay competitive in 2025, there are several critical features that field service management systems must offer. NetSuite Field Service Management stands out by offering: 

1. Hassle-Free Scheduling & Dispatching 

Automated scheduling and dispatching have already improved efficiency in many businesses. In 2025, the focus is on simplifying these processes with advanced field service management solutions. Modern FSM systems will optimise technician assignments based on factors such as availability, skillset, job priority, and location. They will also consider real-time variables like traffic conditions and customer urgency to ensure faster response times and improved service efficiency. 

2. Mobile Field Service Management 

The mobile app is becoming even more indispensable in 2025. Field technicians rely on mobile field service management software to access important job details, including customer history, service issues, and available inventory. The best FSM software will allow technicians to view real-time data and update job statuses on the go. Technicians can log work performed, track parts used, capture customer signatures, and even submit invoices – all directly from their mobile devices. 

3. Asset & Inventory Management in Real Time 

Field service businesses need to manage both customer assets and inventory efficiently to reduce operational delays and costs. Integrated FSM systems will provide a comprehensive view of asset life cycles, from installation and maintenance to decommissioning or disposal. By tracking assets in real time, businesses can ensure that technicians have the correct equipment when they arrive on-site, reducing the need for follow-up visits. 

4. Seamless Billing and Payments 

One of the most significant advantages of integrating FSM with other core systems, such as Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems, is the ability to automate billing. In 2025, field service businesses will rely more on automation to create accurate, real-time invoices based on completed work and used inventory. Integration between the FSM system and accounting software ensures that bills are generated quickly, reducing errors and speeding up the payment process. 

5. Advanced Reporting and Analytics 

Data analytics is becoming an essential tool for businesses looking to stay competitive. Integrated FSM software will allow businesses to track performance across all areas of their operations, from technician performance to customer satisfaction. By collecting and analysing data, businesses can identify trends, uncover inefficiencies, and make informed decisions about resource allocation, service delivery, and customer engagement. 

Benefits of Integration: A Unified System for All Your Operations 

The integration of FSM into your wider business ecosystem offers several tangible benefits: 

• Improved Productivity: With real-time data and automated processes, businesses can ensure technicians are fully equipped to handle each job, thus improving job completion rates and technician productivity. 

• Better Customer Satisfaction: Integrated systems help ensure a smoother customer experience by enabling faster service delivery, accurate billing, and proactive communication. Customers will appreciate a seamless service experience, from initial contact to job completion and follow-up. 

• Cost Savings: Integration eliminates the need for multiple, disconnected systems, reducing redundancies and lowering the costs associated with manual processes. Accurate inventory management and automated billing also help businesses save money by reducing waste and avoiding billing errors. 

• Data-Driven Decision Making: With integrated systems, businesses gain access to comprehensive reports and insights that enable better strategic decision-making, helping companies stay agile and responsive to market demands. 

Preparing for 2025: The Future of Field Service Management 

The future of field service management is here, and it’s driven by integration, automation, and advanced analytics. By adopting NetSuite Field Service Management, businesses can position themselves as leaders in their industry, offering superior customer experiences and achieving greater efficiency. 

Now is the time to embrace a unified FSM solution that aligns with your broader business strategy. With OSSM as your trusted partner, you’ll have the tools and expertise to thrive in a rapidly evolving landscape.

By embracing digital tools, manufacturers can respond swiftly to changes, make informed decisions, and optimise their workflows. As a leading partner in the implementation of NetSuite Manufacturing, OSSM helps businesses harness these digital technologies to improve their processes and drive growth. 

Sustainability and Green Manufacturing 

Sustainability remains a top priority for manufacturers in 2024. With growing awareness of environmental issues, businesses are focusing on reducing waste, optimising resource use, and implementing environmentally friendly practices. This shift not only meets consumer demand for sustainable products but also aligns with regulatory pressures and enhances brand reputation. 

NetSuite’s capabilities allow manufacturers to track and manage their sustainability initiatives effectively.

A robust supply chain is essential for mitigating risks and ensuring smooth operations. 

With OSSM’s deep understanding of the local market and commitment to customer success, we are well-equipped to guide businesses through setting up automated systems to support the complexities of supply chains.
