You want to grow. Maybe your company has already grown significantly in recent years. Or perhaps you’re on the verge of a new phase – expanding, internationalising or innovating. In all cases, you want to get more out of your organisation. And you know: that’s only possible if your systems and processes support that growth. But right now, your software is holding you back. Perhaps because it’s outdated, or because a tangled web of systems has developed over the years. Sound familiar? Then it’s time for a digital transition.
A digital transformation doesn’t necessarily mean turning your entire organisation upside down. But it does start with one essential question: where do you want to go as a company? Together, we explore your growth ambitions and vision for the future. We then map out your key processes, information flows and data structures. Together, we create a blueprint for both the current and the desired future state of your organisation. This blueprint becomes a strategic document where ambitions, pain points, desired ways of working and information needs all come together. And just as importantly – it actively involves your entire organisation.
Raymond van der Putten, Director Operations at Zuiver:
“The blueprint is extremely valuable and even essential if you want to overcome your organisational blind spots. We were surprised by our own complexity…”
Once the blueprint is in place, it’s time to move forward with your digital strategy. If you want to realise your ideal future – what tools do you need to get there? Which business software will truly support your ambitions? And how will these systems work together seamlessly? Many companies come to us asking for a new ERP system. But as soon as we zoom out and look at the bigger picture together, it often becomes clear that more is needed. Your future ambitions likely require a broader approach – one that connects systems, aligns processes and propels your entire organisation forward. We map out all required systems and capture them in an application architecture. Then we design a roadmap detailing how we will transition from the current to the future state – including a clear timeline. After that, we jointly select the right systems to support your new direction. We guide you through the entire selection process, contract negotiations, and of course, the implementation itself.
What sets Skopos apart is how we align digital transformation with your strategic objectives. We understand the significant impact software implementations can have, which is why we approach business software from both a technical and human perspective. Our approach goes beyond software alone – we assess your full application landscape. With deep expertise in logistics and business systems, we ensure people, processes, information and ICT are fully integrated. This holistic view enables your operations to function seamlessly, helping you gain a competitive edge and achieve your goals.
Change management is essential when digitalising your business. Introducing one or more new systems is demanding for your people. How do you create support within your organisation? And how do you ensure that employees embrace the new way of working? Our approach focuses on engaging people in their own future. That’s why our mission is: “Together, always improving.” We teach key users to think in terms of processes and to run change and improvement projects. They are also actively involved in system selection and support the implementation phase. Our experience? This level of engagement turns them into true internal ambassadors of the digital transition.
Allard Boer, CFO at Mepal:
“Involving people in the changes they will face is a key factor for success.”
If you’re aiming for growth but working with outdated systems, it’s like dragging a concrete block behind you. It holds back your progress. In contrast, embracing digitalisation pays off. Manufacturers, for example, can design, produce and market their products more efficiently by having their systems work together seamlessly. This makes them more productive, more innovative and enables faster time-to-market. A digital transition is therefore ideal for manufacturers seeking to move towards smart industry. But wholesalers and omnichannel businesses also benefit. They can optimise their sales channels and underlying logistics processes – and serve both simultaneously.
We’ll be honest: digital transformation is complex. It affects everything – your systems, processes and your people. That’s why it’s not something you can do “on the side.” And it’s not something you can do alone. Because you only get one chance to do it right, expert guidance is essential. Skopos has the experience, the knowledge, and a structured approach to make your digital transition a success. We prove it every day for clients in manufacturing, wholesale and omnichannel industries.
Raymond van der Putten, Director Operations at Zuiver:
“This was our first time doing something like this – and hopefully the only time. None of us had experience with it, yet the entire business depended on it. Being able to spar with professionals was essential.”
Allard Boer, CFO at Mepal:
“A project like this is so large and so far beyond our internal expertise that professional external guidance was absolutely necessary.”
