Integrations & AI Enablement FAQs
At Trajectory, we build scalable integration strategies and help companies unlock the real value of AI by aligning it with business processes and clean data. Whether you’re connecting Salesforce and NetSuite, unifying fragmented systems, or preparing to deploy AI across your operations, we help you execute with confidence.
Why are integrations so critical to modern business systems?
Disconnected systems lead to fragmented data, manual processes, and reporting blind spots. Seamless integrations ensure your data flows smoothly across platforms, reducing errors, increasing efficiency, and enabling real-time visibility.
What kinds of systems does Trajectory integrate?
We design and build integrations between Salesforce CRM, NetSuite ERP and Shopify eCommerce platforms, data lakes, 3PLs, banks, and custom applications. Whether it’s off-the-shelf or fully custom, we build scalable, future-ready connections.
How does Trajectory approach integration strategy?
We begin by understanding your end-to-end business processes and system architecture. From there, we define data flow requirements, determine the best integration method (API, middleware, flat file, etc.), and ensure the solution supports long-term growth.
What tools or platforms does Trajectory use for integration?
We work with industry-standard tools like Boomi, MuleSoft and InitusIO, but also build direct, API-driven custom integrations when appropriate. Our approach is always tailored to your tech stack, performance needs, and cost considerations.
Can Trajectory support integrations during CRM or ERP implementations?
Yes. Integration is often the critical success factor in CRM/ERP implementations. We scope integrations early, manage them in parallel with core configurations, and ensure your go-live includes fully connected systems.
Data Readiness & Infrastructure
How important is data quality in integration and AI projects?
It’s foundational. Poor data leads to failed automations, inaccurate AI predictions, and unreliable reporting. We help clients cleanse, normalize, and structure data before integration or AI enablement to ensure long-term system performance.
Does Trajectory help with data mapping and migration?
Absolutely. We leverage the MigrateEase for Data Migration tool to manage everything from source-to-target mapping and transformation logic to validation and reconciliation. Clean migrations are essential to successful integration and AI deployment.
AI Enablement & Automation
What does “AI enablement” mean in a business context?
AI enablement means preparing your business to apply artificial intelligence in a way that drives real operational value. That includes having the right data structures, connected systems, clean processes, and defined use cases.
Where does AI have the most impact for mid-market companies?
We’ve seen high returns from:
- Predictive analytics in sales, inventory, and cash flow forecasting
- Intelligent automation in Order-to-Cash and Procure-to-Pay
- AI-powered customer scoring and support prioritization
- Automated exception handling and alerts for finance or ops
Do I need to invest in a dedicated AI platform to get started?
Not necessarily. Many modern platforms (like NetSuite, Salesforce, and Boomi) already offer AI and ML capabilities. The real challenge is preparing your systems and processes to take advantage of them, which is where we come in.
Can Trajectory help identify use cases for AI in my business?
Yes. We lead AI Opportunity Assessments to evaluate your current systems, processes, and data maturity. From there, we help you identify quick wins and high-impact use cases aligned to your strategy.
What’s the difference between automation and AI?
Automation follows pre-defined rules; AI learns and adapts. For example, automation can route an invoice for approval, while AI can flag anomalies based on historical spending behavior. We help businesses implement both intelligently.
Working Integration and AI Projects With Trajectory
What makes Trajectory different from other integration partners?
We don’t just connect systems, we design business-aligned architectures. Our expertise spans CRM, ERP and AI strategy, and we bring that cross-functional lens to every integration. The result is a solution that scales with your operations, not one that creates more complexity.
How do I get started with integration or AI planning?
Start with a conversation. We’ll help you evaluate where you are today, what’s missing, and what you can achieve by aligning systems, data, and strategy. From there, we’ll define a roadmap and move forward at your pace.
