but also to optimize the customer experience, Schréder chose to change its business model. To maintain their strong position, it was crucial to invest in the digital transformation of their business processes. Schréder chose to define a new IT strategy with the cloud at its core and a focus on their 'customer intimate approach'. They chose Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Applications Platform (ERP and CRM) and its ecosystem to realize this.
Jean-Jacques van Gils, Group IT Director of Schréder, explains “We are moving more and more towards the cloud, in a 'Software as a Service' model, where the applications are continuously updated. We wanted to set up our own competence center so that we can maintain that SaaS model ourselves. And so in that context, Dynamics 365 was an obvious choice for us.”
The solution was gradually rolled out in the company and also implemented in the various countries where Schréder is active. About the next steps in the process Jean-Jacques van Gils continues: “Microsoft has a broad ecosystem in which we see many opportunities for the future. Just think of smart cities with the Internet of Things. The technology that Microsoft offers for this will enable integration with our back office.”
