ERP Software Development in Latvia: market overview
Riga's fintech, logistics and drone companies seek engineering partners for payment and operations platforms. Within that market, ERP software development is one of the engagements we are asked for most often.
Demand is strongest across Fintech, Logistics and Drones, and every engagement is shaped by local regulation, payment habits and working hours rather than a one-size-fits-all template.

How key sectors in Latvia use ERP software development
ERP Software Development for Fintech
Fintech businesses in Latvia usually need secure onboarding, ledgers that reconcile to the cent, real-time payments and audit-ready reporting. For them, our ERP software development typically starts with production planning & bom (multi-level BOMs, work orders, routings, sub-contracting and scrap tracking) and adds procurement as the platform grows. Progress is tracked on onboarding completion rate and time to approve an application.
ERP Software Development for Logistics
Logistics businesses in Latvia usually need live shipment visibility, warehouse accuracy, carrier integrations and digital proof of delivery. For them, our ERP software development typically starts with inventory & warehouse (batch, lot, serial and expiry tracking with barcode/QR scanning across warehouses) and adds sales & dispatch as the platform grows. Progress is tracked on on-time delivery rate and cost per drop.
ERP Software Development for Drones
Drones businesses in Latvia usually need reliable, integrated software that removes manual work and scales with growth. For them, our ERP software development typically starts with procurement (requisition → PO → goods receipt → invoice matching with vendor scorecards) and adds quality control as the platform grows. Progress is tracked on manual hours saved and error rate.
Example: ERP software development for a logistics business in Riga
Consider a logistics company in Riga (fintech, logistics and startups). A typical ERP software development engagement would start with production planning & bom, then inventory & warehouse, and finish the first release with procurement — usually within 2–4 months.
Payments would run through Cards, data would be handled under EU GDPR, and success would be measured on on-time delivery rate, cost per drop and warehouse pick accuracy.
Example: ERP software development for a drones business in Daugavpils
Consider a drones company in Daugavpils (manufacturing and services). A typical ERP software development engagement would start with sales & dispatch, then quality control, and finish the first release with finance & tax — usually within 5–10 months.
Payments would run through SEPA Instant, data would be handled under EU GDPR, and success would be measured on manual hours saved, error rate and customer response time.

EU GDPR: compliance checklist for ERP software development
Before launch in Latvia, we work through this checklist with your team and advisers:
- Map every personal-data field to a lawful purpose under EU GDPR.
- Decide where data is hosted and whether data about Latvia customers must stay in-region.
- Implement consent records plus data-subject access and deletion workflows.
- Encrypt data in transit and at rest; restrict and log administrative access.
- Prepare a breach-notification procedure that meets the timelines that apply in Latvia.
- Review contracts and data-processing agreements for every third-party service.
Hosting and data residency for ERP software development in Latvia
For clients in Latvia we usually host on Frankfurt, Ireland or another EU region to stay within GDPR transfer rules. The choice balances latency for local users, EU GDPR requirements on where personal data may be stored or transferred, and any sector rules your regulator sets. Backups and disaster-recovery copies follow the same residency decision.
