Systems intelligence consultancy Nucleo has partnered with global ERP leader Rootstock Software to help manufacturers, distributors and wholesale businesses modernise operations, improve supply chain visibility and get more value from ERP investment.
Combining Rootstock’s AI-native ERP platform with Nucleo’s systems transformation and change delivery expertise, the partnership brings together two established players servicing complex, product-centric businesses. Rootstock supports clients across EMEA, North America and APAC, while Dublin-headquartered Nucleo is backed by a 20-year track record in complex IT delivery.
Together, the companies will help businesses transform disconnected processes with a single, connected operational environment.
Rootstock brings core functions including inventory management, production planning, warehouse management, procurement, order management and finance together in one ERP system. When paired with CRM on the same platform, it gives businesses a unified view of operational and customer data.
Nucleo will implement the Rootstock ERP platform embedding change management from the start of each programme, from user engagement and communication, to training and roll-out. Specialising in complex, regulated and asset-intensive industries, Nucleo’s expertise will help teams across factory floors, warehouses and planning functions successfully adopt new processes.
Designed to deliver measurable operational improvement, including reduced warehouse transactions errors and shorter production lead times, the partnership will support business across discrete manufacturing, batch processing, distribution and project-based engineering, with an initial focus on the UK, Ireland and wider EMEA markets.
Speaking about the partnership, Bobby Brown, founder and CEO of Nucleo, said:
“ERP transformation only delivers value when the technology works for the people using it day-in, day-out. Our partnership with Rootstock brings together connected operational data with the change expertise needed to drive company-wide adoption.
“The result is a more joined-up operation, better data-driven decision making and a system that people can actually use with confidence. This is what turns an ERP implementation into genuine business improvement.”
Andy Brabender, Chief Revenue Officer at Rootstock Software, added:
“Manufacturers aren’t just modernizing ERP – they’re asking whether the solution can flex to fit their unique processes with AI embedded into workflows rather than tacked on top. This shift is exactly where Rootstock and Nucleo come together.
“We’re giving manufacturers and distributors a highly agile platform, and Nucleo brings the local, hands-on expertise to turn that vision into practice – putting AI-driven intelligence into the hands of people making operational decisions every day.”
