What it often comes down to.

In the words of the people who do the work.

  1. 01

    The phone never stops

    Customers and contractors keep calling to ask how things stand. Every call takes someone away from their work.

  2. 02

    Retyping takes hours

    Orders, invoices and freight documents arrive as PDFs or emails. Someone retypes them by hand. That takes hours and leads to errors.

What it does.

The system proposes. A person decides.

  • Customers see the status of their order, sample or project.
  • Suppliers submit documents and certificates themselves.
  • Questions and messages sit with the order, not in the inbox.
What the system does
Answers routine status questions from the data available, with the source shown.
A person decides
You decide who sees what.

What it looks like.

Customers see for themselves where their shipment is. Routine questions get an answer with the source attached; the rest goes to the planner.
