HEALTHCARE DISTRIBUTION2023 → 2025

An NDIS healthcare distributor consolidated onto Odoo.

A specialist supplier serving NDIS, home-care and aged-care channels through both a B2C storefront and a B2B account model. Cin7 (ERP), Descartes (warehouse management), and a UK-based carrier integrator were retired and consolidated onto a single Odoo platform — extended with thirteen-plus custom modules, a direct Odoo-to-MachShip integration, and a single integration spine connecting commerce, finance, identity, and reporting.

EDUCATION & CARE2024 → 2025

Cortex — workforce orchestration across HR, rostering, identity, and service desk.

A national education and care provider whose HR, rostering, identity, and service-desk systems each maintained an independent version of staff data. Every staff change required manual coordination, and every pay cycle surfaced rostering conflicts. Ascent Minds designed and delivered Cortex on AKS — a Kafka-backed workflow platform that makes the resulting transactions automated, traceable, pay-run-aware, and self-healing under failure.
