About Niall McCavigan

Niall McCavigan is the Founder of Projexa Digital, a Belfast-based advisory practice that helps operations-led SMEs make better ERP and systems investment decisions before they commit capital. He works with manufacturing, construction and distribution businesses across Northern Ireland and beyond that are preparing to invest in new technology and cannot afford to get it wrong.

ERP and operational system projects often overrun, underdeliver or fail completely — and the real cost is operational, reputational and strategic, not just financial. Projexa exists to give leadership teams an independent, vendor-neutral voice before any software vendor or implementation partner is selected. Niall works on a fee-only model with no software sales, commissions or referral fees, so his only obligation is to the client.

His advisory is built around protecting capital and delivering operational clarity. Through a four-stage approach — Diagnose, Clarify, Design, Govern — he quantifies operational and systems risk, maps workflows and integration architecture, builds a structured vendor-neutral selection framework with five-year TCO modelling, and provides independent oversight during implementation. Every engagement produces board-ready artefacts rather than generic advice.

Niall works directly with senior leaders, with no junior hand-offs. For SMEs preparing significant technology investments, Projexa Digital is the first call for protecting capital, removing vendor bias and avoiding costly system mistakes before they happen.

How Niall Helps SMEs

  • ERP & Operational Risk Score: A structured self-assessment that highlights system fragmentation, reporting risk and operational strain. Delivers an instant ERP readiness position with a clear summary and next step.
  • Operational Risk & Systems Health Review: A focused 2–3 week diagnostic engagement producing an operational risk heatmap, process bottleneck map, financial leakage estimate, systems fragmentation assessment and a clear recommendation.
  • Operational Clarity Audit: A deeper 4–6 week analysis of workflows, integration architecture and systems risk. Produces ERP readiness scoring, vendor-neutral recommendations and a board-ready summary pack.
  • Systems Investment Blueprint: A full 6–10 week vendor-neutral selection framework with detailed requirements, systems architecture, vendor evaluation scoring, 5-year TCO modelling, risk-weighted roadmap and board decision pack.
  • Strategic Oversight: Independent governance during ERP implementation, including review cadence, vendor and partner monitoring, scope and change control, executive reporting and post-go-live stabilisation advisory.
  • Vendor-Neutral Digital Advisory: Independent advice on digital transformation and digitisation that protects capital, removes vendor bias and ensures every major system decision is aligned with operational strategy.

Projexa Digital

At Projexa Digital, the goal is to remove the guesswork from major systems investment. Niall gives operations-led SMEs an independent, senior-led partner who helps them understand what they actually need, evaluate the real risks, and choose technology that fits how the business works.

Every engagement is vendor-neutral and fee-only, so the advice is shaped by the client’s commercial reality rather than a sales target. The result is a clear, board-ready plan that protects capital, reduces implementation risk and sets the project up for long-term success.
