Group Engels chooses a solid foundation with Dynamics 365
It all started with an electrical store 'D.Engels' in the 1930s in Antwerp, after which they have grown into today's Engels Group. They are a well-known wholesaler of electrical household appliances, as well as distributor of HVAC applications and solid surfaces.
The Challenge
Because of the remarkable growth and transition Group Engels has gone through these past years, they moved from the Paardenmarkt in Antwerp to a brand-new building in Malle. Also, the IT infrastructure at the time could no longer meet the requirements of this growing company, this was the perfect time to switch to a modern ERP system to control their warehouse.
The Solution
With Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, extended with the iFacto Distri+ functionalities, all possibilities were available to implement a thorough WMS-controlled warehouse with warehouse scanning. On top of this ERP software, 3 fully integrated webshops were launched, including a PIM system. Meanwhile, administrative processes were simplified with a document management tool, reducing paper flow and lowering the administrative workload. The choice of a modern and flexible ERP solution, such as Business Central, enables Group Engels to continue their growth smoothly while their software provides the necessary support.
