About Lumina ERP
ERP work has to hold up after go-live.
We are Lumina ERP, an independent consulting practice in Humble, TX, in the Houston area. We help teams implement, migrate, rescue, integrate and support Prophet 21 and Epicor Kinetic.
Meet our founder
The engineer behind the practice.
Nickalus Brewer
Founder & CEO
He founded Lumina ERP after working on Prophet 21 from both sides: as a contract developer writing P21 code, and as the in-house ERP administrator for a wholesale distributor. Before that he worked in IT infrastructure on Azure and Intune, and he holds a computer science degree from Full Sail University. Running a distributor's ERP showed him that most problems are small and costly: a report that has been wrong for months, a rule that fires on the wrong orders, an import someone has to babysit. Lumina takes that work for distributors on Prophet 21 and manufacturers on Epicor Kinetic, with a written scope and price before work starts.
LinkedIn profileStart with the people who use the system.
An ERP project reaches the person entering an order, the warehouse preparing a shipment and the finance team checking the totals. We start by understanding that work: what happens today, where it stops and what needs to change.
Our practice brings implementation and ongoing support together. We scope the change, work through it in a test environment and agree on how to check the result. The handoff matters as much as the launch: your team needs to know what changed and how to operate it.
We also build AI and automation for ERP workflows, and Lumina Leads, our CRM and calling product. The consulting work starts with your operation and the problem you need to solve.
How we approach the work
- Understand before changing
- Follow the process, inspect the evidence and agree on the problem before defining the fix.
- Rehearse before cutover
- Use a test environment to work through the change and the checks your team will use to accept it.
- Make decisions visible
- Record the scope, assumptions, open questions and decisions so your team can review them.
- Leave a usable handoff
- Document what changed, how to run it and which issues still need an owner.
