Transcript

00:00To private equity sponsors and operating partners here in Las Vegas: your post-acquisition value creation shouldn't be trapped in forty-page slide decks.

00:11At DataOngoing, we measure our work strictly in basis points of EBITDA. Two hours of executive input returns hundreds of automated hours, proven in our 100x time ledger.

00:24First, a 48 to 72-hour AI technology diligence read to price technical debt before wiring capital. Second, compressing your 21-day multi-entity close down to 3. Third, automated floor-to-ledger data ingestion straight into NetSuite.

00:44We ship working code in 14-day sprints. If it does not run in production, the milestone is not billed. Visit DataOngoing.ai to schedule a private advisory session.

Scales and Scanners Posting Directly to the Ledger in Cold Storage

Operators hand-weighed pallets and retyped the numbers, costing $90,000 a year in billing shortfalls. We bridged floor scales and scanners directly into the ERP, cutting weight capture from 90 seconds to 180 milliseconds.

The problem

Workers hand-weighed pallets on floor scales, calculated tare manually, and typed numbers into desktop computers across a freezing floor. Entry mistakes caused roughly $90,000 in annual billing shortfalls and delayed dock departures by about two hours daily.

What we did

We installed an edge hardware bridge connecting floor scales and industrial scanners directly to NetSuite. An operator steps on the scale, scans the barcode, and an item fulfillment with precise catch-weight lot subrecords is created in under 200 milliseconds.

Our floor operators do not touch keyboards anymore. They step on the scale, scan the barcode, and the truck pulls out.
