Digitalization as a growth driver for SMEs

max­be­ne­dikt GmbH has under­go­ne a remar­kab­le trans­for­ma­ti­on. Managing Director Florian Teltscher was an ear­ly adop­ter of bench­mar­king tools such as ITscope, thus crea­ting a com­pe­ti­ti­ve advan­ta­ge through tech­no­lo­gy. Digitization and auto­ma­ti­on are cen­tral to the com­pa­ny. “That is why we some­ti­mes deve­lop our own inter­faces to opti­mi­ze our pro­ces­ses, for exam­p­le in accoun­ting,” explains Teltscher. This con­stant search for inno­va­ti­on led max­be­ne­dikt to a tool that beca­me a game chan­ger: ITscope.

ITscope as a game changer: how the transformation process changed maxbenedikt

In order to prepa­re the com­pa­ny for the future, max­be­ne­dikt nee­ded an effec­ti­ve solu­ti­on. After eva­lua­ting seve­ral opti­ons, ITscope was cho­sen. The tool pro­mi­sed not only a sim­pli­fi­ca­ti­on of the pro­cu­re­ment pro­ces­ses, but also an inno­va­ti­ve assort­ment and ful­fill­ment thanks to the inte­gra­ti­on with the ERP sys­tem weclapp. In order to opti­mal­ly com­bi­ne the strengths of the indi­vi­du­al plat­forms, the employees at max­be­ne­dikt also use other tools such as EGIS. “But ITscope is sim­ply miles ahead in terms of its fea­ture set,” says Teltscher.

Challenges and opportunities of digital transformation

Through their expe­ri­ence with various pro­cu­re­ment tools, the team at max­be­ne­dikt has come to app­re­cia­te the value of an intui­ti­ve and feature-rich plat­form. “ITscope imme­dia­te­ly impres­sed us with its user-friendly inter­face and exten­si­ve pri­ce and avai­la­bi­li­ty ana­ly­sis capa­bi­li­ties,” says Teltscher. “We use it every day!” Another key fac­tor in the choice of tool was ITscope’s abili­ty to seam­less­ly inte­gra­te with weclapp, giving max­be­ne­dikt the fle­xi­bi­li­ty it nee­ded to make pro­ces­ses effi­ci­ent and effective.

Seamless integration: ERP systems and digital tools in harmony

Introducing ITscope into the ERP sys­tem was a major step towards auto­ma­ti­on and increased effi­ci­en­cy that requi­red careful plan­ning and cus­to­miza­ti­on. The col­la­bo­ra­ti­on with ITscope went smooth­ly, as both teams work­ed clo­se­ly tog­e­ther to meet max­be­ne­dik­t’s spe­ci­fic requi­re­ments. “In fact, the recom­men­da­ti­on for the weclapp ERP sys­tem also came via ITscope,” says the mana­ging direc­tor. “Previously, we used Vario and even pro­grammed an inter­face for it our­sel­ves becau­se we did­n’t like the stan­dard Vario inte­gra­ti­on with ITscope”.

Digital efficiency in daily business: transparency and speed with ITscope

Daily use with clear benefits

Florian Teltscher empha­si­zes the dai­ly importance of ITscope for max­be­ne­dikt: “We espe­ci­al­ly app­re­cia­te the trans­pa­ren­cy regar­ding pri­ces and avai­la­bi­li­ty. It allows us to play with open cards – both intern­al­ly and with our cus­to­mers and sup­pli­ers. This open­ness pro­mo­tes a high level of trust and makes decision-making pro­ces­ses much easier.

Digital sales rethought: B2B online shops and digitization in SMEs

In addi­ti­on to the e‑procurement func­tions, max­be­ne­dikt also uses ITscope Sales to offer its cus­to­mers indi­vi­du­al B2B shops. One of the first cus­to­mers, Lebenshilfe Nordhorn, shows how the solu­ti­on sim­pli­fies com­mu­ni­ca­ti­on and orde­ring pro­ces­ses: “Thanks to the B2B store, employees no lon­ger have to call us for inqui­ries, which makes the pro­cess more effi­ci­ent for both sides,” reports Teltscher. From the appro­xi­m­ate­ly 7 mil­li­on ITscope items, max­be­ne­dikt offers its cus­to­mers a sel­ec­tion of more than 4 mil­li­on items and thus a com­pre­hen­si­ve search faci­li­ty with the opti­on of orde­ring direct­ly from the sys­tem house.

On-site service for setting up the e-commerce solution

The launch of the B2B store was a seam­less pro­cess, thanks to the col­la­bo­ra­ti­ve efforts with ITscope. “Andreas Lanfer from ITscope, who lives just a stone’s throw away, was on hand to assist in set­ting ever­y­thing up – it was a fan­ta­stic expe­ri­ence!” Teltscher exclai­med. Leveraging direct access to ITscope data, the B2B stores were swift­ly estab­lished, bran­ded, and per­so­na­li­zed within minu­tes. Now, hand-picked cus­to­mers of max­be­ne­dikt have the con­ve­ni­ence of brow­sing and pla­cing orders direct­ly through their per­so­na­li­zed online store at the sys­tem house.

The success: system house with its finger on the pulse

Digital proximity: The path to stronger customer relationships

The inte­gra­ti­on of ITscope into max­be­ne­dikt GmbH’s busi­ness ope­ra­ti­ons not only enhan­ced effi­ci­en­cy but also revo­lu­tio­ni­zed cus­to­mer enga­ge­ment. An out­stan­ding fea­ture of the ITscope B2B store that reso­na­tes with Florian Teltscher is the live chat func­tion­a­li­ty within the quo­ta­ti­on tool. This real-time chat empowers cus­to­mers to review and modi­fy quo­tes instant­ly. Teltscher high­lights, “Customers value the prompt updates and direct com­mu­ni­ca­ti­on for refi­ning their quo­tes. The trans­pa­ren­cy and effec­ti­ve­ness of this tool are inva­luable for both our sales team and clients.”

Transparent processes as the foundation for trust and success

Measurable suc­ces­ses under­line this posi­ti­ve deve­lo­p­ment.
The effi­ci­en­cy of quo­ta­ti­on crea­ti­on and order pro­ces­sing has impro­ved signi­fi­cant­ly. “We use ITscope on a dai­ly basis to compa­re pri­ces and avai­la­bi­li­ty and also share the infor­ma­ti­on with our cus­to­mers and sup­pli­ers. This type of trans­pa­ren­cy chan­ges the rules of the game – it crea­tes an envi­ron­ment of trust and streng­thens our rela­ti­onships in the long term,” says Florian Teltscher, explai­ning the benefits.

Looking ahead: digitalisation ahoy!

In terms of the future, max­be­ne­dikt plans to con­ti­nue along the path of digi­ta­li­sa­ti­on and auto­ma­ti­on. “I would pre­fer to use ITscope as a cus­to­mer por­tal that enables even clo­ser inter­ac­tion and fur­ther sim­pli­fies pro­ces­ses,” says Florian Teltscher, who wants to make inter­ac­tion with his cus­to­mers even more advan­ced. He has defi­ni­te­ly cho­sen the right part­ner for this in ITscope, as the plat­form makers are always open to inno­va­ti­ve ide­as and con­cepts and have even set up their own feed­back por­tal for this purpose.

Digital transformation as the key to success

The com­mit­ment to con­ti­nuous impro­ve­ment
and inno­va­ti­on is deep­ly roo­ted in max­be­ne­dik­t’s cor­po­ra­te cul­tu­re. “It is cru­cial not only to react to chan­ge, but to actively seek solu­ti­ons that make our day-to-day work easier and take our cus­to­mer ser­vice to a new level,” empha­si­zes Florian Teltscher. The cou­ra­ge to chan­ge, the sel­ec­tion of the right part­ners and a strong focus on cus­to­mer needs lead to sus­tainable suc­cess. With ITscope, max­be­ne­dikt GmbH has not only opti­mi­zed inter­nal pro­ces­ses, but also surchar­ged a new chap­ter in the cus­to­mer rela­ti­onship – a chap­ter that is cha­rac­te­ri­zed by effi­ci­en­cy, trans­pa­ren­cy and joint growth.
