Most small business problems are related to their supply chain. Contact management systems help start and support the sales process. Accounting systems give the score at the end of the month or year. In between is where the money is lost. Process and inventory control is difficult to manage and can mean the difference between a happy customer and a profitable operation.

Evolve is Hardhats general name for our small business software. In fact, Evolve is a hybrid between custom software and predefined templates which assist us in rapid development and reducing the cost.

Many fundamental business processes are very similar across business application. We have identified groups of process such as distributors, compounders, assemblers and light manufactures. The template structure enable us incorporate pre-built components into a software solution.

As an example, information such as employees, customers, vendors are common across almost any type of business. Additionally, the user interface is normally very similar across applications. Hardhat’s role is to put it all together into an affordable solution.
