🎯 TARGETED PROBLEM: TIME-CONSUMING AND INACCURATE PAPER MANAGEMENT
Before the digital transformation, Crespy managed its purchasing in the traditional way, with paper slips and manual processes. This method gave rise to recurring problems:
Errors and data loss. Paper slips were often lost or contained data entry errors. ‘We were tinkering with paper statements sent by e-mail. It was imprecise and time-consuming’, sums up Mathieu Dumas.
Lack of reliability. Invoices arrived late.
High administrative burden. The administrative team spent a considerable amount of time checking and correcting manual information.
⚙️ DEPLOYMENT OF IBAT PURCHASING & IBAT TIME SOLUTIONS PUBLISHED BY ISYBUY
To resolve these challenges, Crespy chose to implement iBAT Purchasing to digitise its purchasing. The key criteria in this choice included the intuitiveness of the tools and their adaptation to the needs of the teams on site.
Benefits ✅
STREAMLINE PURCHASING PROCESSES WITH IBAT PURCHASING
Purchasing management has also undergone a profound change thanks to iBAT.
No more paper. Orders are now centralised and accessible online.
Better traceability. Receipts are automated, guaranteeing that orders and invoices correspond. ‘If an invoice arrives without an order form, it is not paid. This simplifies the accounting work enormously’, adds Mathieu Dumas.
Express orders appreciated. Site foremen can easily make urgent purchases without tedious re-keying. ‘It's a very significant gain for all day-to-day purchases, whether small or medium-sized’.
Greater budget visibility. Every order is costed, providing total transparency on expenditure.
TENFOLD INCREASE IN OPERATIONAL EFFICIENCY
Thanks to the implementation of IBAT Time and Purchasing, Crespy has made significant gains.
Time saved. Processes are faster and less restrictive.
Improved reliability. Fewer errors and less loss of information.
Team satisfaction. Intuitive tools adapted to the realities of the site.
As Mathieu Dumas explains : « These tools have changed our daily lives. iBAT Achat is intuitive and efficient, even for teams unfamiliar with IT. We've gained in peace of mind and productivity. »
