Results

Challenge

Orders arrived by email, were maintained in spreadsheets and manually transferred into ERP and transport management. Errors and follow-up questions cost hours every day.

The outside view

The software was not the problem. Missing ownership of master data and a process that had grown around system boundaries were.

Starting point

The company had grown rapidly – its order processing had not. Every department kept its own lists, data quality dropped, and new employees needed weeks to learn the informal rules.

The outside view

A few workshops made it clear: the existing systems could do far more than they were used for. The bottleneck was unclear ownership and a process that worked around system boundaries instead of bridging them.

Result

With a clear target process, binding data ownership and a lean interface, order processing now runs end to end – traceable, faster and with noticeably fewer errors.
