Enterprise resource planning (ERP)
Lumora Clarity connects accounting, procurement, inventory, operations, fixed assets and project profitability in one application. Purchase requisitions become purchase orders and goods received notes with approvals on the record, stock moves between warehouses with FIFO or weighted-average valuation, and management reports draw on the same ledger. It is a one-time product purchase, not a per-user subscription.
The work it takes off your plate
01ERP licenses are priced per user, so adding staff raises the bill.
Lumora Clarity is bought once as a product purchase rather than rented per user.
02Purchase approvals are chased by email and paper.
Requisitions, purchase orders and goods received notes follow approval hierarchies inside Lumora Clarity.
03Stock in several warehouses is reconciled by hand.
Multi-warehouse stock tracking, inter-warehouse transfers, adjustments and reorder point triggers keep stock levels on one system.
04Project profitability is only known after the books close.
Timesheets, milestones and budget guardrails show each project's gross margin as work progresses.
05The company's financial ledgers sit on a vendor's platform.
Lumora Clarity runs on one agreed hosting environment, managed by Lumora or on your own hosting.
Why it is different
Lumora Clarity is a one-time product purchase. The base license covers the product as it is today; the extended license adds 5 years of product updates from the go-live date.
Giving more staff access does not raise a recurring license fee.
Elsewhere: ERP systems are commonly sold on annual contracts priced per user.
Multi-currency accounting, procurement approvals, multi-warehouse stock and project profitability share the same records.
Finance stops reconciling exports from separate purchasing, inventory and project tools.
Elsewhere: Smaller companies often stitch together accounting software, spreadsheets and separate inventory tools.
Each purchase is deployed on one environment: Lumora-managed with hosting included, or your own hosting with application files provided by Lumora.
You decide where the general ledger and banking data are kept.
Elsewhere: Subscription ERP tools typically run only on the vendor's shared cloud.

Security and deployment
Ownership
Every Lumora product is a one-time purchase. You choose how it is deployed, decide whether you want five years of updates, and ask us for changes only when you need them.
Purchase
Buy one Lumora product or several. Each purchased application is deployed on one agreed hosting environment.
With Lumora-managed deployment, hosting is included and our team answers technical questions about the application. Or we provide the application files for your own hosting.
Explore the productsUpdates
The extended license is the base price plus a markup and includes 5 years of product updates from your go-live date. After that, you can renew updates with us.
Started with the base license? You can add updates later by paying the difference in license fees. Support and maintenance cover system bugs; new features are handled as customization.
Ask about the extended licenseCustomization
Need a workflow, field, report or integration the product does not have? We review the request and quote it as its own project.
Data migration from your current system is quoted the same way. If your team has changed the source code, we analyse it first and specific customization charges apply.
Request a customizationWe run the deployment environment for your application. Hosting is included, and our team helps with technical questions about the application.
We provide the application files and your team deploys them on your hosting environment. You may modify the source code; later work by Lumora on modified code is quoted as customization after a code analysis.
Case studies
A hardware engineering company
Engineers tracked work in two different tools and sales used a third. Status was retyped across all three, sales promised dates without seeing the build plan, and outside contractors were left off project boards to save seats.
Read the scenarioA corporate finance advisory firm
Bankers found their CRM slow to update, so deal notes stayed in personal spreadsheets. The pipeline was disconnected from due-diligence tasks and closing schedules, and outside advisers needed paid seats.
