Why We Built Distilled Software (And How It Fixes Your Operational Headaches)
At Process Distillery, our core focus has always been simple: People, Process, and Profit.
Through our work in corporate due diligence, custom software integrations, fractional executive leadership, and roll-up-your-sleeves consulting, we get deep into the weeds of our clients’ businesses. And over the years, we kept seeing the exact same pattern:
Companies invest heavily in core systems like QuickBooks Enterprise, Sage, Acumatica, or Quickbase, but there are always frustrating operational gaps.
Maybe field teams can’t submit accurate timecards on the go, inventory tracking requires double data entry, or getting clean project profitability numbers feels like solving a math puzzle. Core software gets you 80% of the way there—it’s that remaining 20% that causes headache after headache.
That’s why we created our sister company, Distilled Software. While Process Distillery focuses on aligning your leadership, refining your strategy, and optimizing your processes, Distilled Software builds targeted micro apps to solve those specific, everyday operational friction points.
Filling the Gaps in Your Daily Workflows
Distilled Software doesn’t replace your central tech stack—it supercharges it. By connecting directly to your existing accounting, CRM, and project management tools, these micro apps bridge the gap between what your field operations need and what your back office relies on.
1. Operations Distillery: Micro Apps for Field Efficiency
Getting real-time data from the field back to the office shouldn’t feel like pulling teeth. Our micro app suites tackle the most common field bottlenecks:
-
Time & Attendance Suite: Give field teams a mobile timeclock with intuitive timesheets, real-time approvals, and automated overtime/job cost allocation.
-
Warehouse Operations Suite: Use our Issue Module to handle direct material depletion straight to a job, pick/load/delete in a single step, and eliminate manual data re-entry into your accounting software.
-
Operations Suite: Gain real-time asset and equipment tracking (say goodbye to unnecessary return trips to the shop), organize scheduling by crew, job, or truck, and monitor project profitability in real time.
-
Payments Module: Let clients pay open invoices directly on-site or online, automatically pulling data from your ERP, CRM, or Quickbase setup.
2. Data Distillery: The Integration Powerhouse
A great app is only as good as its connection to your core system. The Data Distillery acts as the engine linking field operations directly to heavy-hitter platforms like QuickBooks Enterprise, Sage, Acumatica, Quickbase, Results CRM, and custom builds.
-
Eliminate Manual Data Entry: Free your team from endless copy-pasting.
-
Automate Workflows: Keep jobs moving seamlessly from field request to back-office invoice.
-
Limitless Dashboards & Advanced Reporting: Get clear, up-to-the-minute visibility so you can make confident decisions.
People + Process + Technology = Real Results
When you combine Process Distillery’s hands-on guidance with Distilled Software’s lightweight micro apps, the impact on your bottom line is immediate:
-
Streamlined Workflows: Cut out manual steps that slow your team down.
-
Improved Data Accuracy: Get accurate information straight from the source.
-
Reduced Human Error: Stop relying on sticky notes and manual spreadsheets.

Informed Decision-Making: Track profitability and performance in real time.
What’s on the Horizon?
We’re constantly evolving our micro app offerings based on what we learn inside our clients’ operations. Currently on our roadmap: dedicated modules for Work Orders, Purchase Orders, Estimates, Fulfillment, and Custom Dashboards—and yes, we are actively taking requests!
For our consulting and industry partners, we also offer a Reseller Program designed to help you bring added value, local expertise, and recurring revenue opportunities to your own client base.
