ERP Integration Analysis\r
\r
Overview\r
\r Based on DDC methodology (Chapter 1.2), this skill analyzes ERP system integration patterns in construction organizations, mapping data flows between modules and identifying optimization opportunities.\r \r Book Reference: "Технологии и системы управления в современном строительстве" / "Technologies and Management Systems in Modern Construction"\r \r

)\r
\r
print(f"Integration Score: {analysis.integration_score:.0%}")\r
print(f"Bottlenecks: {len(analysis.bottlenecks)}")\r
```\r
\r
### Monitor Integration Health\r
\r
```python\r
monitor = IntegrationHealthMonitor(integration_points)\r
\r
health = monitor.check_health()\r
print(f"Status: {health['overall_status']}")\r
\r
if health['issues']:\r

print(f" - {issue['point']}: {issue['message']}")\r
\r
# Generate report\r
report = monitor.get_health_report()\r
print(report)\r
```\r
\r
### Compare Integration Options\r
\r
```python\r
options = [\r
{"name": "REST API Integration", "method": "api", "cost": 50000, "time": "3 months"},\r
{"name": "ETL Pipeline", "method": "etl", "cost": 30000, "time": "2 months"},\r

\r
## Next Steps\r
\r
- Use [data-silo-detection](../data-silo-detection/SKILL.md) to identify isolated systems\r
- Use [etl-pipeline](../../Chapter-4.2/etl-pipeline/SKILL.md) for data integration\r
- Use [interoperability-analyzer](../../Chapter-3.5/interoperability-analyzer/SKILL.md) for standards compliance\r
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install erp-integration-analysis - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/erp-integration-analysis - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
