“How much is an ERP?” is the right question—but the honest answer is a range until scope is defined. In Kenya, indicative professional business systems often start from hundreds of thousands of shillings for focused modules and rise into millions for multi-branch, multi-company deployments.

What drives cost

  • Modules — inventory, sales, finance, HR, manufacturing, each adds complexity.
  • Branches & users — concurrency, stock transfers, consolidated reporting.
  • Integrations — M-Pesa, SMS, eTIMS, banks, external APIs.
  • Migration — legacy spreadsheets or old databases.
  • Compliance & audit — role separation, logs, export formats.

Indicative brackets (engineering only)

Small single-location operations with core modules: often KES 200,000 – 450,000. Multi-branch retail or distribution with payments: KES 450,000 – 1,200,000+. Enterprise-scale custom ERP: scoped after discovery.

These figures exclude hosting, licences, SMS, and third-party fees. Our ERP pricing catalogue shows official starting points; your PDF quote reflects your exact selections.
