Case Study: Bidvest SACD achieves 70% process automation and 60% reduction in paper use with Nintex K2 Five

70% of business processes transformed

Bidvest SACD, a South African supply‑chain logistics provider, faced slow, paper‑based processes that obscured inventory visibility, tied up capital, and made financial and operational analysis and approvals inefficient.

Using Nintex K2 Five to digitize and automate workflows, Bidvest SACD automated more than 70% of its processes (100+ workflows), reduced paper use by 60%, halved capital tied up in inventory, cut a stock‑analysis task from a week to about two minutes (≈99% time reduction), processed roughly 390,000 electronic purchase orders in four years, and freed finance staff to save 8–10 days per month—delivering faster decisions, standardized approvals and measurable cost savings.
