01 The reality on the ground

SEA's SMEs are under-served by legacy ERP.

The systems built for Western mid-market enterprises don't fit the way Eastern factory floors, shophouses and contract manufacturers actually operate.

39%

of APAC SMEs are classified as digitally immature — running operations on Excel, paper and chat.

SRC · Cisco APAC SMB Digital Maturity Index

70%

of traditional ERP implementations fail to meet the business case they were sold on.

SRC · Gartner ERP Outcomes Survey

290K

SMEs in Singapore alone — and the same shape of business across MY, VN and ID.

02 What makes AKU different

Built for the operator, not the consultant.

Three commitments that change everything about how an ERP gets adopted on a factory floor: the phone is primary, the chat is real, and the system bends to you — not the other way around.

Mobile-first, not mobile-also.

Supervisors and line leads run core flows from a phone. Desktop is the exception, not the assumption.
