A new smart ERP system for Lavans

Lavans'
IT challenge

Lavans, a family-owned company with over 270 employees, specializes in the cleaning of workwear. They also provide services in floor and sanitary hygiene, as well as the rental of various products such as air fresheners, towels, and entrance mats. Lavans aimed to optimize their business processes to effectively respond to market demands and meet customer requirements. The existing IT landscape was excessively complex, and Lavans had limited control over the architecture.

The solution

Lavans decided to implement a new ERP system. However, they encountered limitations with most off-the-shelf ERP systems, which were inflexible and cumbersome. Fortunately, Lavans found the perfect solution in Betty Blocks, a low-code platform that seamlessly adapts to products, services, and pricing, while simplifying customization for customers. In collaboration with House of low-code, Lavans successfully developed a flexible and future-proof ERP system using Betty Blocks. This empowers Lavans to effortlessly integrate additional services and products in the future.

Our approach

To determine the optimal system configuration, we conducted a comprehensive analysis. We evaluated the effectiveness of various processes and identified areas for improvement. Additionally, we reviewed Lavans' previous efforts to address these issues. Taking into consideration the urgency of resolving the challenges and the criteria for a successful partnership, we recommended a phased rollout strategy. We started by implementing the system for entrance mats, ensuring a smooth transition and setting a solid foundation for further enhancements.

The result

The new ERP system brings many tangible benefits to Lavans. Processes are faster, resulting in significant time savings and improved visibility. Lavans can now easily customize processes based on individual customer requests. The system automatically documents all developments, preserving knowledge of the application landscape. Moreover, certain back-end software structures have become more intuitive, allowing Lavans to effortlessly expand whenever needed.
