Most engagements begin with a short discovery call. We will tell you honestly which of these you need — and which you don't.

What we do
Most companies end up with a development shop, an ERP consultancy and a marketing agency — three contracts, and nobody responsible when they don't line up. We do all three, and we bring in partner products where a proven platform beats building one.
Software built for the way your business actually works — from a single internal tool to a full platform.
Enterprise systems put in properly — scoped, configured, migrated, integrated and supported after go-live.
Partner product. A workforce platform — attendance, scheduling, payroll and field operations on one system — which we implement and support.
The other half of digital transformation — getting your message in front of the right people, consistently.
In depth
Design & Development
Off-the-shelf systems force you to change how you work. Sometimes that trade is worth it. Often it isn't — and a focused custom build costs less than a year of workarounds.
ERP Implementation
The licence is the easy part. What decides the outcome is whether someone sat down with your finance team and understood the chart of accounts, the approval chain and the reports they actually run.
Partner product — HESSA AI
Attendance, scheduling, payroll and field operations on one data model, so hours flow straight through to pay. We handle licensing, configuration, rollout and support.
Service line — Digital Marketing
Most agencies write a recommendation and then wait on someone else to implement it. We build and maintain the website, so the landing page, the tracking and the campaign all go live together.
Our work
Two current engagements, each drawing on a different part of what we do.
A full NetSuite implementation currently underway — discovery, chart of accounts design, configuration, data migration and training, through to go-live and hypercare.
An ongoing engagement covering social media and marketing, alongside their inventory management system and continuous maintenance of their website.
Case study detail to be expanded once each engagement reaches a milestone worth writing up.
Industries
Inventory, storefronts, multi-channel selling, and the campaigns that fill them.
ERP for production and inventory, shift attendance, and systems that talk to the floor.
Site attendance, project costing, and job data that reconciles with the invoice.
Driver hours, route visibility, and warehouse systems connected to the ERP.
Rostering, credential tracking, and software that respects patient data rules.
Project accounting, time capture, client portals, and a web presence that wins work.
How we work
We learn how the business runs today, including the parts that are genuinely awkward.
A written plan with what's included, what isn't, and what it costs. No surprises later.
Short cycles with something to look at each time, so direction is corrected early.
Migration, testing, training and a cutover plan that assumes something will go wrong.
We stay. Month three is when most projects quietly fall over.
How we deliver
The software is the easy part. What decides whether a project lands is the work around it — the process mapping, the data, the integrations, and who answers the phone after go-live.
We map how your business actually runs before touching a setting. Most failed implementations are a configuration built on an assumption nobody checked.
Cleansed, mapped and reconciled before cutover, with balances that tie out. This is where go-live dates are usually lost.
ERP, point of sale, workforce and storefront exchanging data on a schedule you can rely on, instead of a spreadsheet moving between them.
A named team that already knows your configuration, rather than a ticket queue starting from zero every time something breaks.
Why S&B
When the ERP, the website and the workforce system are all ours, there is nobody to point at when they don't line up. That is the whole argument.
Go-live is the start of the relationship, not the end of the contract. Maintenance and support are how most of our clients know us.
HESSA AI is ours. That means the people configuring your workforce platform are the people who know what it can and cannot do.
Most of our engagements start with someone describing a process that has quietly become painful. Thirty minutes on a call is usually enough to tell you whether we can help.
No obligation · We will tell you if it isn't a fit
Home / Services / ERP Implementation
We implement NetSuite and other enterprise systems — scoping, configuration, data migration, integration, training and the support that comes after go-live.
The honest version
They fail because nobody mapped the real process before configuring the system, because the data was worse than anyone admitted, or because training happened once, a week before go-live.
A system set up the way the demo looked, rather than the way your approvals, cost centres and month-end actually run.
Duplicate vendors, inconsistent item codes and balances that don't tie out. Migration surfaces every one of them, usually late.
One session, no follow-up, and a finance team that quietly keeps a parallel spreadsheet for six months.
What we do
Full implementations, or a specific piece if you already have a team and need help with one part of it.
If you have not chosen a platform yet, we help you compare honestly — including cases where a smaller system is the right answer.
We document how finance, purchasing, inventory and sales actually work today — including the workarounds nobody mentions in meetings.
Structured so the reports your board asks for come out of the system, rather than out of a spreadsheet built on top of it.
Customers, vendors, items, open transactions and balances — extracted, cleaned, mapped, loaded and reconciled to the cent.
Connecting the ERP to your website, warehouse, payroll, CRM and banking — so data is entered once and only once.
Custom fields, forms, workflows and reports where the standard product genuinely does not fit — and a clear recommendation when it does.
Role-based sessions for finance, operations and management, with written procedures they keep afterwards.
Hypercare through the first close, then an ongoing support arrangement sized to how much help you actually need.
Platforms
NetSuite is where we are deepest today. The platforms alongside it are placeholders — tell me which ones S&B genuinely delivers and each one gets its own page.
Full-suite cloud ERP — financials, inventory, order management and reporting. Our lead platform, in active delivery.
Talk to us →Second named ERP platform. Replace with a real one and this becomes a full page.
Third named ERP platform.
Selection, business case, process design and vendor management — useful before you have committed to anything.
Talk to us →Our method
Workshops with finance, operations and IT. Output: a written process document and a scope you sign off before anything is configured.
Chart of accounts, roles, approval chains and reporting structure agreed on paper first, because changing them later is expensive.
The system built to the signed design, demonstrated back to you in stages rather than revealed at the end.
Data extracted, cleaned and loaded, then reconciled against your existing balances until the numbers agree exactly.
User acceptance testing with your real transactions, and role-based training with written procedures.
A cutover plan that assumes something will go wrong, then daily support through the first month-end close.
Finance & controls
Tax codes, rates and jurisdictions configured for everywhere you actually sell, so returns come out of the system rather than out of a spreadsheet.
Every currency you trade in handled properly, with revaluation and realized/unrealized gains posted where they belong.
Configured so your records stand up to an audit without a manual reconstruction the week it is requested.
Permissions that match who should approve what, so segregation of duties is designed in rather than promised in a policy document.
Questions
Either conversation is worth having. We will tell you honestly whether the project is a fit for us and what we think it involves.
Home / Services / Design & Development
Custom applications, web and mobile products, and the design work that makes them worth using — plus the maintenance that keeps them running afterwards.
What we build
The common thread is that something in the business is being held together by a spreadsheet, an inbox, or a person who remembers how it works.
Internal systems for the processes no off-the-shelf product covers — inventory, scheduling, quoting, approvals, job tracking.
iOS and Android apps for teams in the field or customers on the move, built to work on poor connections.
Marketing sites, customer portals and e-commerce, built accessible and fast rather than heavy and fashionable.
Research, wireframes, prototypes and a design system — so what gets built has been agreed before anyone writes code.
Making your existing systems talk to each other, so the same number is not typed into three places every week.
Updates, security patches, hosting and small changes on a retainer — the part most agencies quietly stop doing.
How we work
We map the process, agree what success looks like, and produce a scope and estimate you can hold us to.
Wireframes and a clickable prototype, so disagreements happen on a screen rather than in code.
Two-week cycles, each ending with something working that you can use and react to.
Deployment, handover documentation, training, and a maintenance arrangement from day one.
After launch
Software that nobody maintains becomes a liability within about eighteen months. We treat maintenance as part of the product, not an upsell.
Dependencies patched, certificates renewed, and vulnerabilities addressed before they become an incident.
A monthly allowance for the tweaks every system needs, without a new statement of work each time.
Ongoing WCAG 2.1 AA checks, so a site that launched accessible stays that way as content changes.
Questions
Bring us the spreadsheet. Those conversations tend to be the productive ones.
Home / Services / Digital Marketing
Social media, content, campaigns and reporting — from a team that also builds and maintains the website underneath, so nothing gets stuck between agency and developer.
Our advantage
The usual arrangement is an agency that writes recommendations and a developer who implements them, eventually. We are both, so a landing page, a tracking change and a campaign all go live on the same day.
The people planning the campaign can build the page it points at. There is no queue between the idea and the thing being live.
Goals, events and conversions configured by the people who built the site, so the numbers mean what you think they mean.
Marketing results drawn from the same analytics we implemented, so nobody spends the meeting arguing about whose figures are right.
What we do
Channel strategy, a content calendar, publishing and community management — consistently, which is most of the battle.
Copy, graphics and short video built around what your buyers actually care about, rather than what filled the calendar last month.
Search and social advertising with clear budgets, defined audiences, and a straight answer on what each channel returned.
Campaigns and automated sequences with consent tracking built in from the start — see the consent section below.
Built and tested by the same team, so a campaign is never held up waiting for someone else to deploy a page.
Proper goal tracking, then a monthly report in plain English that says what happened and what we are doing next.
Consent & deliverability
Consent before you send, clear identification of who is sending, and an unsubscribe that is honoured promptly. It is what the rules require in most markets, and it is also simply what makes email work — list quality is deliverability.
Express and implied consent tracked with source and date, so you can demonstrate it if you are ever asked to.
Every message carries who is sending it and how to reach them, in the form the legislation expects.
A clear mechanism, honoured well inside the required window, and audited rather than assumed.
Written for a marketing audience and not legal advice — the obligations that apply depend on the markets you send into, so have counsel review the final wording.
Questions
We will look at what you are running now and tell you what we would change — whether or not you work with us afterwards.
Home / Products / HESSA AI
Attendance, scheduling, payroll and field operations on one data model, for teams that don't sit at desks. HESSA is a partner product: S&B handles licensing, configuration, rollout, integration and ongoing support.
The platform
More than 25 modules are available. These are the ones that solve the problem people call us about.
Clock in from a phone, a wall kiosk or an existing biometric reader, with GPS geofencing so a punch only counts on site. Face recognition ends buddy punching.
Build rosters by site or department, publish to phones, and let the system flag coverage gaps and conflicts before they turn into overtime.
Run pay from hours already approved in the system — no re-keying, no second spreadsheet, and a full audit trail behind every line.
Live location during working hours, planned visit routes, automatic mileage, and forms crews complete from the job site.
Plus kiosk and gate access, claims and expenses, help desk, recruitment, productivity monitoring, meeting intelligence and more.
What S&B does
Self-serve onboarding works for a twenty-person office. It does not work for four hundred workers across thirty sites with biometric hardware and four different shift patterns.
Grace periods, rounding, break deductions, overtime thresholds and premiums agreed in writing before anything is switched on.
Geofences drawn per site, devices registered, employees loaded, and a phased go-live rather than a single switch.
Connected to your ERP and accounting systems, so workforce cost lands in the general ledger without re-entry.
A named contact who knows your configuration, rather than a ticket queue that starts from zero each time.
Who it's for
Crews moving between sites, subcontractors on different rates, and attendance records that hold up in a dispute.
High-volume clock-in at shift change, line-level attendance, and overtime visible during the shift rather than after it.
Driver hours, route adherence, automatic mileage, and proof of delivery captured on the phone.
Questions
We will configure a sample of your real roster before the call, so you are looking at your operation rather than a generic demo.
Home / Our Clients
A deliberately short list. We take on work where implementation quality decides the outcome — and we stay on afterwards, which limits how many engagements we can carry at once.
Clients
Named with permission. Each of these is a system we implemented and continue to support — not a logo we licensed for a website.
Iffys
Client — NetSuite ERP
Our NetSuite engagement. S&B handled the implementation end to end — mapping how the business actually runs before configuring anything, migrating and reconciling the data, integrating the surrounding systems, and training the team through go-live. We remain their support contact for the configuration we built.
Nayaab
Client — Point of Sale
Our point-of-sale engagement. Retail lives or dies on what happens at the counter, so the work centred on a till that stays fast under pressure, stock that reflects what is actually on the shelf, and sales data that reaches the back office without anyone re-keying it.
Draft copy. The engagement descriptions above are written from a short brief and have not been confirmed with either client. Confirm the detail — and obtain written permission to use the names and logos — before this page is published.
Partners
Where a proven platform or an established team beats building from scratch, we partner rather than pretend. These are the relationships behind what we deliver.
Digital Dimension
Group of Companies
Founded in 2004, Digital Dimension Computers is an Abu Dhabi based technology company and part of our Group of Companies. The relationship gives us engineering capacity we can scale against a project rather than a headcount plan, and a working presence in the UAE. Delivery stays under S&B management throughout — you contract with us, you are accountable to us, and the split never becomes the client's problem.
HESSA AI
Partner — Workforce Platform
A workforce platform covering attendance, scheduling, payroll and field operations on one data model. S&B takes it to market and owns everything around it — licensing, configuration, rollout, integration with your ERP, and the support afterwards. You deal with us, not with a vendor in another timezone.
How we work
Every engagement here is still under support. That is the point of the model — but it also means each new client is a commitment we carry indefinitely, not a project we close out.
Where a partner is involved, we manage them. You get a single point of accountability instead of a chain of suppliers pointing at each other.
If an engagement needs something we cannot do properly, or the timeline only works if the data migration is rushed, we say so before the contract rather than after the slip.
Tell us what you are trying to solve. We will come back the same business day, and we will say honestly if it isn't something we should take on.
Home / About
S&B Technologies implements the systems businesses actually run on — NetSuite ERP, point of sale, and the software around them. We are small on purpose, we stay on after go-live, and we are backed by a group of companies with the engineering depth to scale when a project needs it.
Who we are
Most of what goes wrong with enterprise software goes wrong in the implementation, not the licence. That is the part we do.
Process mapping before configuration, data cleansed and reconciled before cutover, integrations that hold. The software is the easy part; everything around it decides whether the project lands.
ERP, point of sale, the website and the workforce platform under one contract. Where a partner is involved we manage them, so there is no chain of suppliers pointing at each other.
Every client on our list is still under support. Go-live is the start of the relationship, which is also why the list is deliberately short.
Group of Companies
Our major partner, in business since 2004, and the reason we can scale a project against the work rather than against a headcount plan.
Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates
Founded in 2004, Digital Dimension Computers is an Abu Dhabi based technology company and part of S&B's Group of Companies. Two decades in the market means the relationship gives us engineering depth we can put against a project on demand, a delivery team across another timezone, and an established presence in the UAE for clients operating in the region.
In practice it means capacity without the usual trade-off. Work is planned, reviewed and delivered under S&B management from first call to post go-live support — you contract with us, you are accountable to us, and how the delivery is resourced never becomes your problem.
Draft copy. This description of the partnership is written from a short brief and has not been confirmed with Digital Dimension Computers. Confirm the wording — and permission to use the name and logo — before this page is published.
How we work
Migration is where go-live dates are usually lost. We look at your data early and give you an honest read, rather than discovering it in the final phase.
If a process is just habit rather than a competitive difference, we will say so. Every customisation is something maintained and tested for years.
Hypercare through your first month-end close, then a support arrangement sized to what you actually need — which for most clients drops after the first quarter.
If an engagement needs something we cannot do properly, or the timeline only works with a rushed migration, we say so before the contract rather than after the slip.
Tell us what you are trying to solve. We reply the same business day, and we will say honestly if it isn't something we should take on.
