Many manufacturers rely on M2K as the core system that runs their business, but modern reporting, analytics, and application development often require capabilities beyond a traditional ERP. This session shares Centro's journey building a modern data and integration platform around M2K using custom data extraction, data warehousing, APIs, and dashboard technologies. We'll discuss why we built a custom Unidata extraction layer, how we transformed ERP data into trusted business metrics, and how platforms like Grafana, Cargo, and our Schooner API are enabling new reporting and application experiences. Attendees will leave with practical ideas for extending the value of M2K without replacing the system that already runs their business.
