Standard ERP software for the biotech sector.

We offer

Managing formulations, detailed batch tracking and (quality) controls challenge you? We know the challenges of biotech companies very well. Through years of experience and cooperation with numerous companies, we are specialists in numerous industries, including the biotech sector.

One thing we need to make clear first on the subject of ERP software in the biotech sector: we admit that you probably won’t be able to realize all your requirements with standard ERP software. The good news is: requirements that exceed this, we solve in the first step with out-of-the-box add-ons. If there is nothing suitable, we will program perfectly fitting individual adaptations for you. In the end, this approach is still far more target-oriented and cost-effective than using complex and overloaded industry solutions, of which you only use a few features. In a nutshell: Before you buy and customize an industry solution, it is better to work with us to adapt the standard. This way you are not dependent on the provider or the system and you can avoid the high maintenance costs.

Your Challenges:

Biotech companies typically work with highly complex cell cultures, which they source and/or manufacture themselves, and often resell. The nature of the goods poses special challenges in terms of warehouse management, batch tracking, and process controls. Handling shipments in compliance with regulatory requirements (e.g., enclosing certain documents) is also a challenge.

The good news is that we are aware of this. We have already been able to help many biotech companies handle these challenges comfortably. Soon, you too will be managing all your cell culture processes digitally with ease. Paper documents and hassle are history.

Your challenges summarized:

  • Maintenance of real-time data regarding stock levels
  • Central management of formulations and quality control
  • Mapping of batch production in the system
  • Detailed batch tracking in the system
  • Strict process controls (especially in production)
  • Compliance with legal requirements
  • Simple customs handling for complex foreign shipments

Our unbeatable solution:

In a nutshell: We always use the standard ERP solution Dynamics 365 Business Central (formerly Dynamics NAV/Navision) as a basis and add other technologies such as Microsoft Office 365, the Microsoft Power Platform and industry-specific add-ons. If processes still cannot be mapped, our experienced developers will program you individual adaptations. The structure of the software is modular. Your system therefore remains updateable and flexible, so that you can map extensions quickly and easily. In addition, you remain independent of the provider. This approach distinguishes us significantly from our competitors.

1Standard ERP solution

“Our processes are far too individual for a standard solution.” You thought wrong! Experience has shown that we can map about 90% of our projects in the standard. This is a matter close to our hearts, so that your system remains updateable and you remain independent. The basis of our work is the industry-independent ERP solution Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (formerly Dynamics NAV/Navision).

2Pre-built add-ons

If the standard solution is not sufficient, we can solve some challenges quite easily with our own add-ons or those of our partners. In addition, Microsoft products such as Microsoft Office 365 or the Microsoft Power Platform complete your business software so that you can work perfectly.

3Individual adaptions

If you require further special functionalities, we can also solve your challenges by individual adaptations. Take a look at the requirements we have already implemented in practice for our existing customers. Can you find yourself again? If not, please contact us and together we will find a solution for you.

3Individual adaptions

Do you have very specific business processes that cannot be mapped either in the standard system or by an add-on? No problem. Our experienced developers will find a solution. The following is a selection of examples of customizations we have already implemented. However, if your requirements are not met by these, please do not hesitate to contact us.

  • Batch tracking


    For biotech companies, the traceability of the batch is particularly important. Here, a lot of special information must be stored (e.g. cell tissue, ethnic origin), which is untypical for small and medium-sized companies from other industries. We will program a customization for you so that you can conveniently store the relevant information.

  • Certification

    You have to prove certain certifications via the delivery bill? No problem. We modify the standard slightly and enable this function for you.

  • Collection interface


    Biotech companies often outsource the collection of payments. To do this, we simply implement an interface to a collection company.

  • Customs handling


    Deliveries by biotech companies to regions such as the USA are associated with a lot of effort due to high requirements. To be more precise, each shipment must be accompanied by numerous documents. So that you don’t have to do this manually and think of relevant documents, we program you a customization with which you can automate this process.

  • FedEx Interface


    Pre-built add-ons serve multiple service providers and require paper-based documents (e.g., invoice, delivery bills). Some companies work excellently with one service provider (e.g. FedEx) and want to get away from paper-based work. We program you an interface for this (e.g. to FedEx) so that the shipping runs completely digitally.

  • Shipment Tracking


    For shipment tracking, we program you an interface to a third-party provider (e.g. DPD).

    You can map a route planning in Dynamics 365 Business Central. You assign individual items and thus sales lines to a vehicle and trigger picking and goods issue from route planning.

    For optimal route planning, we implement an interface to third-party software (e.g. Wanko). This allows you to optimize your tours – even across drivers.

Too complicated?

Our technology interpreter Theo explains.

Theo Technologiedolmetscher erklärt

Think of the solution like a burger. You have a base that is the same for every customer. You can make small changes to this base (e. g. different dough shapes such as multi-grain or sourdough). In addition, each customer can put together the toppings as they wish. Depending on preference and need.

This is also the case with our solution. You receive the standard product Dynamics 365 Business Central. We realize many projects  in the standard solution – but sometimes small changes are necessary. And in addition, our customers purchase apps from us or our partners.
