001 / SOUND FAMILIAR?
Problems We Fix
For Owners.
These are the six things we hear most often from people who run shops and factories. If one of them is yours, that is where the first project starts.
Month-end takes my accounts team a full week.
Bank statements, books and GST matched by the system. Your accountant reviews the few lines that do not match.
See the month-end case study →I hear about yesterday's production this morning.
Job cards filled in at the machine, so output, rejects and stoppages are visible during the shift.
See the job card case study →Defects are being found by my customer.
A camera on the line checks every part, trained on your own products and your own defect types.
See the inspection case study →Everything runs on WhatsApp groups and phone calls.
Approvals, forms and follow-ups moved into simple software built around the way your team already works.
Custom ERP and business software →Tally has all the data, but I cannot get answers from it.
Dashboards, alerts and a daily summary on top of Tally or SAP B1, without replacing either.
AI on top of Tally and SAP B1 →002 / INDUSTRIES
Built for Retail
and Manufacturing.
We work only with retail businesses and factories. Everything we have built was built for a shop or a plant, so we already know the problems before you explain them.
Retail Chains,
Run on Numbers.
Whether you run two stores or two hundred, the problems are the same: stock you cannot see, buying by instinct, and month-end reports that arrive too late to act on. We fix those first.
- R01See Stock Across Every Branch
- One live stock position across all locations, with reorder triggers and dead-stock alerts instead of weekly manual counts.
- R02Plan Buying From Demand Data
- Branch-level demand forecasting from your own sales history, with profit visibility per store and per category.
- R03Month-End Without Spreadsheets
- Finance, compliance and bank data reconciled automatically, so closing the month is a report you read rather than a week your accounts team loses.
- R04Know Which Customers Are Leaving
- Purchase-pattern analysis that flags churn risk and loyalty opportunities while there is still time to act.
- R05Keep the ERP You Have
- SAP B1, Tally or a custom stack stays where it is. We add the intelligence layer on top of it.

Forecasts from your own sales history, per branch and per category.

Intelligence.
Most plants we walk into still run on paper job cards and end-of-shift phone calls. We digitise what is already happening on the floor, add prediction where it pays, and leave the machines and the ERP as they are.

- Work orders, run tracking and shift reporting captured at source and traceable end to end.
- M04Supplier Risk & Lead Time
- Procurement scored against your real delivery history rather than a purchase manager's memory.
- M05Energy & Material Waste

003 / SERVICES
Automation, ML
and AI Services.
Six kinds of work, from getting your data into one place to AI that runs every day. Most projects combine two or three of them. Need software built around your own process? See custom ERP and business software.
SVC / 01
Process Automation
We map, digitise and automate the manual workflows that cost you the most: data entry, document processing and syncing between systems, running around the clock without a person in the loop.
SVC / 02
ML Model Development
Custom models for demand forecasting, anomaly detection and classification, trained on your operational data and deployed as APIs your existing systems can call directly.
SVC / 03
AI Systems & Agents
LLM-based systems that answer questions from your business data: document intelligence, operational Q&A and automated reporting. Fully private, and on-premise where required.
SVC / 04
Data Pipelines & Dashboards
Your ERP, POS systems and spreadsheets consolidated into one source of truth, with live dashboards built for owners, managers and floor teams rather than analysts.
SVC / 05
Computer Vision
Visual AI for quality inspection, inventory counting and production monitoring, trained on your products and defect classes, and deployable on edge hardware or in the cloud.
SVC / 06
ERP Integration & AI Layer
An intelligence layer on top of the SAP, Tally or legacy system you already run, so alerts, reports and automations work from the data that is already there.
004 / CASE STUDIES
The Work
In Practice.
Four worked examples, two from retail and two from manufacturing: what the business looks like today, what we build, and what changes on a normal working day.
Retail · Worked example
One live stock view for a six-branch garment retailer
Six branches, six Tally files and a weekly Excel sheet. How one live stock position, reorder alerts and branch transfers replace the Monday phone calls.
Read the case study →
Retail · Worked example
Month-end close without the spreadsheet week
Bank statements, Tally ledgers and GSTR-2B matched by the system. The accounts team reviews a short list of exceptions instead of ticking thousands of lines.
Read the case study →
Manufacturing · Worked example
From paper job cards to live OEE in a CNC machine shop
A machine shop that learns about yesterday's production the next morning. Tablet job cards at each machine give the owner live output, rejects and a reason for every stop.
Read the case study →
Manufacturing · Worked example
Checking every part on a moulding line with vision inspection
Sampling one part in fifty lets defects reach the customer. A camera over the line, trained on the plant's own parts, checks every piece and tells the supervisor when rejects start rising.
Read the case study →These are worked examples built from the kind of operations we work in. The businesses are composites, the screens show sample data, and no result figures are quoted.
All case studies ↗005 / HOW WE WORK
How an Engagement
Runs.
Five stages, in the same order, on every project. We spend days in your shop or plant before we quote, so the proposal is about your business. That is stage 02.
01
Discovery Call
Thirty minutes on your business, your segment and the problems worth solving. Free, and without a pitch deck.
02
On-Site Immersion
Two to four days inside your facility. We shadow the people who run operations day to day, and audit every data source they touch.
✦ WHAT SETS US APART03
Scope & Proposal
Fixed scope, timeline and price, agreed before any code is written, so there are no change-order surprises later.
04
Weekly Builds
Working software every week, running on your live data. You can test it and redirect us at any sprint, so nothing is a surprise at go-live.
05
Deploy & Support
Deployment, team training, and documentation handover. Retainer support available for model retraining and new features.

- [03]Data Stays in Your Building
- We support fully on-premise deployment. Financial records, production data and customer information never have to leave your premises.
- [04]Systems That Stay in Production
- Everything we build is deployed, monitored and maintained. We stay involved until it runs in production and your team is confident operating it without us.
Deda Systems & Solutions is an engineering team founded in Chennai in 2025. The engineers who join your first call are the ones who scope the work, build it and support it, from the Ambattur office and from clients' floors across India.

Questions We
Get Asked.
Detail by segment: AI and software for retail, manufacturing software and factory AI, custom ERP and business software, and the case studies.
What does Deda Systems do?
Deda Systems & Solutions is a Chennai-based engineering firm that builds AI automation, machine-learning models, custom ERP and business software for retail and manufacturing companies. It works only in those two sectors.
Where is Deda Systems located?
The office is at No. 1, Sampangi Street, Vivekananda Nagar, Ambattur, Chennai 600053, Tamil Nadu, India. The team works on site with clients across Tamil Nadu and India.
Does Deda Systems replace our ERP?
No. SAP Business One, Tally or a custom stack stays in place. Deda Systems adds an integration and intelligence layer on top, or builds custom modules where off-the-shelf software does not fit.
Can the AI run on-premise?
Yes. Deda Systems supports fully on-premise deployment, including local language models such as LLaMA and Qwen, so production, financial and customer data never have to leave your premises.
How does an engagement start?
A free 30-minute discovery call comes first. We then spend two to four days on site before writing a proposal. Scope, timeline and price are fixed before any code is written. You see a first working demo on your own data in week 1, and a first scope typically reaches production in weeks 6 to 12.
How is pricing structured?
Every engagement has a fixed scope, timeline and price agreed before code is written, with no price changes after the scope is agreed. Retainer support is available after go-live.
Is Deda Systems a fit for a small or mid-sized business?
Yes. The work is built for owner-run retail and manufacturing businesses, from a shop with two branches to a plant with a few lines. A first project is scoped around one problem, with a fixed price agreed before any code is written.
Do you work in Tamil?
Yes. The team works in English and Tamil, on calls and on site, and screens for shop-floor and counter staff can be built with Tamil labels.
Do you have case studies?
Yes. Four worked examples are on the case studies page: live multi-branch stock for a retailer, automated month-end reconciliation, paper job cards to live OEE in a machine shop, and vision quality inspection on a moulding line.
How do I contact Deda Systems?
