We helped Novaresine move from a management system based on a make-to-order approach to a solution that would allow it to break out of the rigid boundaries of the previous model and meet the dynamic needs of the company.
For over thirty years Novaresine has been dedicated to the research and production of highly innovative resins for the coatings market, meeting the needs of various sectors such as Can & Coil, Architecture and Decoration, Transportation and Wood. Located in the province of Verona, the company's 80,000 sq. m. production plant is the heart of a continuous research and development process aimed at ensuring high product quality, characterized by the involvement of qualified professionals and state-of-the-art technologies. Novaresine offers solutions for coatings, metal packaging, coil, industrial coatings, metal and wood, with a focus on sustainability and technological innovation. These features reflect Novaresine's commitment to sustainable manufacturing and resin production, developed through advanced research into new sustainable raw materials from renewable and recycled sources, without compromising performance.
Novaresine was facing some limitations due to the use of a management system that was not fully adapted to its specific operational needs. The pre-existing system, although structured, was mainly configured around the make-to-order model and therefore did not offer the flexibility required to dynamically adapt to the company's unique processes. The need for a management system that combined strict adherence to best practices with the ability to adapt nimbly to the needs of a midsize company led us to rely on the functionality and features of SAP Business One. The platform's ability to be continuously upgraded was an additional reason for our choice, as it ensures that the company has a system that is in line with the latest technological and business developments.
We assisted Novaresine in its transition to SAP Business One by performing a thorough system configuration and careful selection of the most appropriate add-ons to fully cover its business processes. We paid particular attention to creating leaner business processes in order to free up resources for high value-added activities and to significantly improve the efficiency of administrative and financial processes.
By implementing a real-time industrial accounting system, we helped Novaresine lay the groundwork for predictive scenario analysis (what if), thereby improving the company's decision-making capability. Finally, we integrated warehouse management into the system, optimizing availability according to production orders, in compliance with quality certification standards.
The implementation and ad hoc configuration of SAP Business One began Novaresine's digital transformation journey and immediately delivered a number of tangible benefits:
In the future, the system will be at the heart of enterprise data management, both internally and externally, and will serve as a catalyst for optimizing resin supply. This will enable customer needs to be met according to an integrated product-service logic. In addition, the continuous feedback provided by the management system will help improve Novaresine's market perception and strategically drive product positioning and innovation.
