For ITS Fabry, when bidding for a new business, it has always
been an opportunity. Our team is completely dedicated and when
needed has performed to incredibly tight deadlines. Once again,
ITS Fabry will “Simplify the World” and adapt to

up in 15 working days. Six years later this client is still with
us and has just entrusted us with even more business. This is
by no means an exception and through customer surveys the reactivity
of our IT department has always been positively commented upon..
The best way to illustrate our know-how and capability is to offer
you a few case studies illustrating our achievements with various

Our client OPC France is a company which designs and distributes
greeting cards to franchises throughout France, Belgium and
Luxembourg.
Since its introduction to the French Market in
1991, we have looked after its logistics and distribution.
A
fast growing and changing product range with a short life span
were the most determining factors in the choice of development
strategy.
Effectively, OPC France needed a tool to update
their product range efficiently and economically, change
their pricing policy easily and obtain vital statistical
information at a minimum cost.
Some of the tools set up by ITS Fabry have enabled OPC France to
optimise their print runs.
A unique system enables our franchises
to place an open order. A visual indicator will let them know how
close they are to reaching the firm order (and not a quantity as
this is confidential).
Once the minimal quantity is reached, they
receive an automatic response and delivery date.
This order “bidding” system
means no stock while supplying the product our customer is looking
for.

Software

Through
time, ITS Fabry has helped clients solve some of their issues
by developing specific software for them.
When programming
becomes too expensive on SAP or when a bespoke solution needs
to be found, we can help.
The best demonstration we can give
is through the following case studies:

Case
Study (Software)

Because the fiscal rules imposed on companies selling to consumers
throughout Europe are very cumbersome, the IT programming
of “heavy” systems might be very costly. If
you add multi currency billing to the requirements, management
of various bank accounts, the diversity of European languages,
of internal country legislation and payment methods, you
may be overwhelmed by the complexity of the task ahead
of you. This is where ITS Fabry can Simplify your world
once again. By subcontracting your work to us, you leave
the complicated part of the system programming to us and
will only need to enter the total monthly revenue recognition
in the currency of your choice.

Because
of the above complexities, a major US company had no choice
but to repair and exchange their products free of charge throughout
Europe. Through our Fiscal Representation experience, we were
aware of their issues and offered a bespoke IT and operational
solution. During our first operational year, we were able to
develop a program which catered for:
22
billable currencies
16
VAT currencies
Compliance
with All European VAT administration
Automated
VAT reporting
Extremely
complex financial reporting rules
...36000
invoices in 9 different languages were processed in a few months… |
|
Today, the best conclusion we can draw are a customer’s
own words:
“We
have been using ITS Fabry since 1999 as an outsourced Sales
Ledger
Service for our Out of Warranty repair operation. This includes
Billing
Collections, Bank Reconciliations and Financial
Reporting and
of course a
fair degree of customer service. We have always found ITS Fabry
to be
adaptable and flexible in meeting the needs of our constantly
changing
business ”.

The Worldwide leading Group of small domestic equipment came
to us 18 months ago with a will to rationalise their POS
distribution and obtain an IT System enabling them to manage
the front-end and back-end of their project. The end user
of the main ordering system is a nomadic sales force. Web
based applications were highly suitable for the head office
but going against the entire company philosophy for the sales
force. The IT Solution was a hybrid between a web based system
and a local software used by the nomadic population.
The
Web Based application enabled them to:
-
Centralise their POS on one platform (IT and Logistics)
- Offer a common tool to several brands and their various marketing
departments
in several geographical areas
- Obtain easy to use statistical information: Use of the POS- Efficiency of
ordering…
- Streamline the number of suppliers and measure supplier performance
- Manage obsolete stock and destroy when necessary, maintaining their stock to
a
minimum level.
- Reduce Cost (Distribution and Purchasing)
The
local software application enabled them to:
-
Offer a user friendly ordering system to each nomadic employee
- Release the information to everyone automatically
- Discipline the user more efficiently and obtain better campaign
results
- Reduce the cost of processing orders drastically
Our client audited us shortly after the start of the business
and recorded a 100% compliance with their needs as well as
improvement offered by the ITS Fabry initiative.
Our
strength with this partner has been a constant dialogue and
offer of solutions to our
customer’s
needs.
This
solutions could be easily applied to your sales Network or
customers that do not have elaborate systems.
The cost will
lower within a few months through order processing cost being
drastically reduced
