When resource is thin on the ground, there’s only so far staffing can be stretched before you start to notice the knock-on effects. Here’s how we helped one client hire the Epicor resource they needed to revitalise their Epicor project and implement a system simplified for end-users in the business.
The Requirement
The business faced severe resource shortages, causing their Epicor system to nearly halt. Lacking vendor and partner support, the system was on the brink of failure when they reached out to us here at IT Works Recruitment.

They needed to complete implementation, upgrade the system, train staff, simplify the sales dashboard, and enhance code performance for their Epicor system to be fully optimised across all areas.
Main Objectives
- Complete the Epicor system implementation.
- Provide continuous system upgrades.
- Train staff on Epicor basics.
- Simplify the dashboard for the sales team.
- Optimise application performance through code development.
