• The leader in the carbonated beverage industry in Portugal and one of the biggest bottlers in Europe, Refrige produces 220 million liters of soft drinks each year, but faced a severe operational bottleneck when it came to handling promotional and marketing materials around new products, especially as production volume increased.Seven different departments needed to provide input into the administrative process and all data required manual validation by Refrige’s IT team, which then had to be input into two separate monolithic systems; a fresh take on the product and promotional material handling process was needed, so Refrige turned to the OutSystems® Platform and OutSystems' Partner, Hyfas.
• In only 12 weeks, a completely new enterprise workflow process was developed and rolled-out company-wide, thanks to the fast and reliable change enabled by the OutSystems Platform; the automated process now took less than a week to execute, whereas previously it took upwards of four to five weeks. llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll• Refrige’s IT team is now much more nimble, able to dramatically shorten response time from a week to one day and are confident that they can remain aligned to the constantly changing needs of the company, thanks to the flexible and change-ready nature of the OutSystems Platform. pp“ The new application workflow developed by Hyfas using the OutSystems Platform has become a core process for the company’s activity. The platform has demonstrated that it is extremely scalable and flexible to keep up with the evolution and business changes, and changes can be done in a short time-span.”
