SQL Development & Data Automation for Distributors and Manufacturers

Custom MSSQL Projects, Data Automation, Data Migrations, ERP Integrations, Support & Training

Manufacturers and distributors run complex operations. Your ERP holds the mission-critical data for orders, inventory, pricing, production, and fulfillment — but all too often that data gets stuck behind scripts that break, manual workarounds, and reporting tools that can’t keep up. This work typically supports pricing, inventory, order processing, fulfillment, purchasing, and light manufacturing workflows.

​

We usually get called on because something is broken, manual, or unreliable — and internal teams don’t have the time or context to untangle it.

 

At MindHARBOR, we help operations teams, IT leaders, and data owners turn SQL from a problem into a strategic asset. Whether you need broken data repaired, processes automated, ERP migrations supported, or better reporting & BI foundations, we deliver practical SQL solutions designed for real production environments — without providing DBA/server administration services.

​

Who This Page Is For

This page is for manufacturers and distributors who are dealing with:

​

  • Fragmented or inconsistent ERP data supporting pricing, inventory, fulfillment, purchasing, and light manufacturing.

  • Repetitive manual steps tied together with spreadsheets.

  • Reports that don’t match what the business actually needs.

  • Migrations, consolidations, or system transitions.

  • SQL scripts that stopped working or were never properly documented.

  • A desire to automate and scale operational processes.

​

If you’ve ever thought “someone should just fix this,” you’re in the right place.

 

What We Don’t Do - To be crystal clear:  We do NOT provide SQL Server administration or tuning services.

 

That means:

​

  • No instance-level server tuning.

  • No backup/restore management.

  • No patching or DBA operations.

  • No performance monitoring tools.

 

If that’s what you’re looking for, let’s talk about what we do instead — because most of the time those areas don’t drive business value until your data and scripts actually work.

 

What We Do -  We build custom SQL solutions that solve real business problems — focused on outcomes, not DBA jargon.

 

SQL Script Development, Data Fixes & Project Rescues

We write reliable SQL for operational processes:

​

  • Correcting data inconsistencies or ERP output errors.

  • Rebuilding broken scripts and utilities.

  • Conflict resolution between related tables and systems.

  • Fixing orphaned or invalid records.

 

Our fixes are documented and tested for production use, not fragile one-off patches.

 

Automation for Manual Processes & Workflow Support

Let SQL do the heavy lifting:
 

  • Nightly or scheduled cleanup and reconciliation.

  • Exception detection and automated alerts.

  • Auto-generation of work tasks or corrective actions.

  • Integration-ready data pipelines for downstream systems.

 

Reduce errors, save time, and eliminate spreadsheets.

 

Data / ERP Migrations & Transformations

Whether you’re upgrading systems, consolidating databases, or cleaning up legacy data, we can:

​

  • Create repeatable migration scripts.

  • Validate and reconcile pre/post migration results.

  • Transform raw ERP data for new use cases.

  • Build repeatable ETL pipelines.

 

You stay in control of your data before, during, and after migration.

 

Reporting & BI Foundations

Good BI starts with good data. We help you:

​

  • Build SQL views, stored procedures, and base tables optimized for reporting.

  • Prepare clean datasets for Power BI, Tableau, or analytics platforms.

  • Standardize logic so dashboards tell one truth.

  • Build sliced, diced, and aggregated views aligned with operations.

 

No more ad-hoc queries that only one person understands.

 

Why MindHarbor

We combine technical SQL expertise with deep experience in manufacturing and distribution environments. That matters because:

​

  • We know your data pain points
    ERP tables are more than code — they reflect pricing logic, warehouse processes, routing rules, and operational realities.

  • We speak both business & tech languages
    We work with analysts, operations leaders, and technical teams to translate needs into reliable SQL.

  • We deliver usable results, not unreadable scripts
    Everything is documented, clean, and maintainable.

  • We help you stay in control
    You own the SQL code. You see the logic. You understand the outcomes.

 

Typical SQL Projects We Deliver

​

  • Bulk data corrections for ERP inconsistencies.

  • Automated reconciliation of inventory and orders.

  • Repeatable migration scripts with validation checks.

  • SQL views for operational BI and dashboards.

  • Scheduled cleanup jobs replacing manual spreadsheets.

  • Cross-system SQL-based data movement.

 

Each is scoped with clear deliverables and measurable impact.

 

What to Expect Next

When you reach out, we’ll start with a conversation about:

​

  1. Your current challenge
    What’s broken, manual, or unreliable?

  2. Your desired outcome
    What happens when this problem is solved?

  3. How we can help
    We’ll align scope, risks, and options with your reality

 

No jargon. No upsells. Clear next steps.

 

Have a data or SQL issue you’re trying to untangle?

Most conversations start with a quick discussion of what’s broken, manual, or unreliable — and whether it’s a quick fix, a larger cleanup, or something better left alone.  If SQL is slowing down operations, let’s talk it through.  Get in touch and let’s walk through what you’re dealing with.


We help manufacturers and distributors fix data problems, automate workflows, and build SQL that works for your business — not just your database engine.
