Enterprise Connect
Scoped implementation. Not a fixed SKU. Not hours-based services.
Enterprise Connect is the rollout, mapping, and integration engagement that gets SecurePoint Trade running cleanly inside an aerospace or defense operating environment. Five phases over 6–8 weeks, fixed scope at start, real artifacts at finish, hardening included.
Direct answer
What is Enterprise Connect?
Enterprise Connect is the named, fixed-scope implementation engagement for SecurePoint Trade. It packages the rollout work — connector setup, ERP mapping, identity bridge, policy seeding, staging pilot, cutover, and 30-day hardening — into a single engagement that ends when your environment is operating cleanly, not when an hour budget runs out.
Scope of work
Six work areas, named explicitly.
Every Enterprise Connect engagement covers some subset of these. The discovery phase decides which apply to your environment and how deep each one goes.
API key + connector provisioning
Stand up production API keys, scope them per integration, register the connectors your team will use (SFTP, REST API, manual upload), and confirm rotation + revocation procedures. Keys are hashed at rest from day one.
ERP mapping
Validate the data path from your ERP to Trade. Oracle EBS CSV mapping is already represented in the product. SAP, NetSuite, and custom ERP mappings are scoped explicitly — column-by-column — so the intake structure matches your reality, not a generic template.
Secure exchange and transport
Configure SFTP intake, API-based intake, or scheduled batch upload against your existing infrastructure. For Controlled Data Delivery customers, scope approved delivery-channel configuration, destination templates, role mapping, and evidence-retention requirements as implementation work.
Identity, SSO, and bridge auth
Wire SecurePoint platform handoff for production, validate the signed-token contract end-to-end, and confirm your IdP's MFA policy is the authoritative source. Local Trade login is disabled in production unless a documented break-glass mode is approved.
Policy seed + analyst workflow
Walk through your starter screening rules, OFAC/BIS/UN/EU/UK source mix, embargo policies, and analyst approval posture. Seed the policy library so analysts can run real intake on day one rather than configuring policies in production.
Go-live coordination
Cutover plan, rollback path, real-time staging-to-production diff, evidence-pack continuity check, and a post-deployment hardening pass once production traffic is real. Includes the staging pilot run with documented role separation.
Engagement structure
Five phases, 6–8 weeks, fixed scope at start.
Discovery + scope freeze
Map your current operating model: ERPs in scope, transaction volume, license count, delivery cadence, role structure, evidence retention requirements. Output: a scoped statement of work with named connectors, mapping targets, and exit criteria.
Environment + identity bootstrap
Provision the Trade organization, link to the SecurePoint platform identity bridge, seed the role matrix, issue API keys, and stand up staging access for the implementation team and your three pilot users (reviewer/analyst, manager, admin).
Connector + mapping build
Build out ERP intake mapping, validate against real customer data (sanitized as needed), wire connectors for delivery surfaces if Controlled Data Delivery is in scope, and seed the policy library against your actual screening rules.
Staging pilot + role separation proof
Run the canonical Trade staging pilot checklist with the 3 pilot users. Walk every workflow — intake, screening, approval, drawdown, delivery, evidence — against the real bridge-authoritative environment. Resolve every FAIL or unsafe BLOCKED before production.
Production cutover + hardening
Cutover, validate the first real transactions through the live operating record, confirm evidence-pack and audit-log behavior under real load, and run a 30-day hardening window where the implementation team responds to operational signal.
Boundary clarity
What is in scope, what is not.
Naming the boundary up front prevents the slow drift into ongoing managed services that tends to obscure whether the product itself is working.
What we do
- — Scope, mapping, and configuration against your specific environment
- — Connector and intake wiring — including the policy and role seeds
- — Real staging pilot run with role separation, not a slide deck
- — Go-live coordination + a 30-day post-deployment hardening window
What we do not do
- — Build custom features into Trade itself (those go into product roadmap)
- — Re-implement your ERP — we map to it, we do not replace it
- — Replace your secure-exchange tool — we wrap it through the connector layer
- — Sell hours-based ongoing managed services — Enterprise Connect ends at hardening close
