Case Study: Baumit streamlines employee merchandise ordering with Softr

Baumit launches merchandise ordering for 100+ employees with Softr

Baumit, a leading European building materials company, faced a challenge in creating an internal merchandise ordering system for its employees. Their specific needs, including user-specific budget limits and dynamic packaging calculations, proved too complex for standard e-commerce tools and a prior custom-coded solution. They partnered with Softr and expert Harald Palma to build a highly tailored application to meet these requirements.

Using Softr with Airtable as a data source, the vendor built a custom online ordering system featuring personalized user dashboards, real-time budget tracking, and comprehensive admin controls. The solution was a resounding success; within five weeks of launch, over 100 Baumit employees placed more than 2,500 orders, managing a merchandise budget exceeding €600,000. The Softr-built system brought immense efficiency gains and overwhelmingly positive feedback from the customer's team.
