Shape your strategy to bypass bottlenecks in Wholesale & Distribution
Adding valued service
The supply chain has changed drastically over recent decades. Nowadays, a wholesaler not only has to distribute products to customers but also to provide added value in their service.
Dynamics 365 supports the service level, by delivering optimal customer experiences with for example fast order entry, accurate pricing information and easy ways to integrate other modules. Read more about in in our blog 'From super stock to super service'.
"We aim to create a fully digital experience for our clients. And internally, we try to work as digitally as possible too. For instance, we use a niche tool for document capture which makes our daily work more efficient. That’s how we can support our continuing digitization: we can easily plug in existing and new tools into the Business Central environment."
Peter Suys, CEO, Eurabo
Compliance and traceability
In the industry, we see that customers demand more and more transparency. Besides that, legislation has become increasingly strict.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 offers robust features for regulatory compliance, including document management, data encryption, and reporting tools for traceability assurance.
"It’s become increasingly difficult to master the food tracking and tracing process. To keep up with compliance obligations, we absolutely had to step up end-to-end transparency and traceability."
Leen Soenen, CFO, JBS Toledo
From multichannel to omnichannel
Customers want to communicate and order across a variety of channels. However, opening up many channels (multichannel) is certainly not the same as ensuring that those channels are seamlessly matched and can be used alongside each other (omnichannel).
Microsoft Dynamics 365 helps you to centralize all information in a data platform that integrates features such as pricing, customer service and communication. PS. did you know we wrote an entire blog titled ‘from multichannel to omnichannel’ about this topic?
"Our sales teams are very happy. They now have mobile access to all customer data, which is handy when they're on the road. Dynamics 365 serves as a one stop shop for all teams involved with our customers. We truly have become a more connected company, which is a win-win for both our customers and our own employees."
Marco Schillemans, Digital & IT Manager, Q8Oils
Data-driven supply chain
Complex supply networks and faster delivery times require fluid coordination with suppliers and clients. Data sharing outside your organization is necessary to integrate, organize and optimize efficiency across the supply chain.
D365 supports continuous improvement initiatives by providing tools for analyzing supply chain data, identifying inefficiencies, and implementing process improvement. From transport management to EDI exchange and from vendor-managed inventory to demand management: Dynamics brings it all together.
“The new ERP solution integrates three existing systems: the internal warehouse transport, the part sorting system, and the transportation software”, says Geert Van Zeir, Solution Architect at Cegeka. “Additional monitoring tools and control mechanisms throughout all these processes give D’Ieteren the insights to quickly detect and fix weak links in the supply chain.”
Pol Van Wesembeeck, Head of Logistics & Development, D'Ieteren
Taking care of stock control
Minimizing supply costs and maximizing service quality, that sounds great right?
Microsoft Dynamics 365 helps to boost stock control with warehouse management functionalities that integrate with the rest of your business, to inform sales, finance and procurement.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 and the integrations with Power BI and Azure offer many commercial opportunities for Profile.
“We can finally answer a long laundry list of customer questions. That would never have been possible with the old platform. The leasing companies, for example, now easily keep track of their tire stock. The platform matches leased vehicles in need of new tires with garages in the area that have tires in stock. “In that way, our system helps them save hundreds of thousands of euros.”
Erik van Mook, ICT Manager, Profile
