# Introduction

MAGNUM ERP is designed around business workflows rather than individual software pages.

Every enquiry, quotation, drawing, BOQ, purchase order, and project follows a defined engineering process.

The objective is to ensure every department follows the same procedures while providing complete visibility throughout the lifecycle of every project.
