  • Sales     and Marketing: Streamlined sales processes and supported marketing     initiatives, optimizing customer interactions and market penetration.
  • Inventory     Management: Provided precise control and tracking of product     inventory, crucial for managing the flow of mineral water across various     European distribution points.
  • Procurement     and Sourcing: Optimized the process of acquiring goods and services,     ensuring efficient supply chain management.
  • ISAF     Module: This module was specifically implemented to meet compliance     requirements or integrate with specific industry standards, as is often     necessary for operations within the European market.

Results: The Dynamics AX upgrade and implementation for IDS Europe provided a comprehensive and highly efficient ERP solution. It enabled centralized management of financial, sales, marketing, and inventory operations, facilitating smoother distribution processes and enhanced operational transparency across its European business.
