The challenges
Among the more than seventy mussel producers in the Mytilimer group are a number of family-run operations and small-scale producers, accustomed to working in traditional ways. For them, as for larger producers, managing the business was often manual, done by telephone or email, due to the lack of access to a suitable tool.
In the purchasing department, too, processes were often manual. It was difficult for a purchasing manager to have an overall view of product availability, order status, incoming goods, etc., as the processes were often manual.
The objectives
- Digitize purchasing processes and centralize reliable business data
- Have a global view of product availability
- Harmonize and centralize product and order information
- Simplify exchanges with producers
The solution
The Mytilimer group has chosen Klarys' technology and expertise to simplify its mussel purchasing processes, and digitalize the management of logistics and accounting flows.
The Klarys platform enables Mytilimer to centralize the offer of all its mussel producers, and provide them with an intuitive interface to manage their orders and associated documents at any time, wherever they are.
The results
The Klarys platform enables Mytilimer to automate and simplify relations with its suppliers:
- Digitization and automation of purchasing processes
- Global view of suppliers' offering on a single tool
- Automatic generation of accounting documents at Mytilimer and on producer interfaces
- Time-saving and flexibility for producers; orders can be managed from a smartphone
- Formalization and implementation of standardized ordering procedures
"The implementation of the eProcurement module has enabled the purchasing department to become more professional, and to make our data and working methods more reliable and standardized. The involvement of our partner producers, Klarys teams and Mytilimer teams has enabled us to set in motion an encouraging process, and confirms the importance of continuing our IS structuring".
