Inventory, order, and fulfilment sync with clear ownership of source of truth.

Shopify integrations that reduce app sprawl, not add to it
ERP, PIM, CRM, and fulfilment integrations wired into a coherent Shopify stack. We tidy data flow and cut app sprawl, which is the hidden tax on most stores trying to scale.
PIM & catalogue
Product data pipelines that feed Shopify metafields and metaobjects cleanly.
CRM & lifecycle
Klaviyo and other ESP hooks aligned to Shopify events and customer data.
Middleware cleanup
Retire redundant connectors and document what actually runs in production.
Observability
Error handling, logging, and alert paths so failures do not surface as angry customer emails first.
Deliverables
What you get
- Integration architecture diagram and data flow documentation
- Built or refactored connectors and webhook handlers
- App sprawl reduction plan where integrations replace redundant apps
- Testing and monitoring setup for critical paths
- Handover or retained ops partnership
How we work
Aligned to Stack Recovery
- 01
Audit
We map every live integration, historical failure modes, and conflicting data sources so the target architecture reflects production reality, not vendor diagrams.
- 02
Design
Target architecture documents explicit source-of-truth rules for inventory, orders, customer data, and catalogue attributes across ERP, PIM, and Shopify.
- 03
Implement
Connectors and webhook handlers ship in phases with staging validation on real order flows before traffic-bearing paths switch over.
- 04
Stabilise
Hypercare, alerting, and runbooks are handed over so ops teams see integration failures in monitoring before customers report them.

Integrations and System Optimisation
Which systems do you integrate with Shopify?
Common stacks include NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Brightpearl, Celigo, various PIMs, Klaviyo, Gorgias, 3PL platforms, and custom middleware. We scope per client rather than listing logo partnerships.
Can you fix broken integrations from a previous agency?
Yes. That is a common entry trigger. We start with a stack audit when the full integration map is unclear.
Do you build custom middleware?
When iPaaS tools add fragility or cost at your scale, we build lean custom sync layers on Shopify APIs with proper monitoring.
How do integrations relate to custom apps?
Often the same engagement. A private app may be the correct integration surface. See our custom app development offering.
Will this reduce our app costs?
Often yes, when multiple apps duplicate integration work. We model margin impact, not just licence line items.
How do we begin?
Book a discovery call with a description of your current stack and where data breaks today.
Need a partner for Integrations and System Optimisation?
Start with a discovery call. We will assess whether a stack audit or a scoped build is the right entry point for your store.
