Case Study: Colruyt Group Services achieves 1M messages/day and faster order-to-cash with Software AG webMethods Integration Platform

Colruyt improves supplier communications and order-to-cash process

Colruyt is a Belgian family-owned retail group operating discount supermarkets across Belgium, France and Luxembourg with more than 20,000 employees. As its network of retailers, distributors and suppliers expanded, manual and homegrown processes for orders, invoicing and supplier communications became a bottleneck, limiting capacity, slowing order-to-cash cycles and creating inaccuracies.

Colruyt deployed Software AG’s webMethods Integration Platform and Trading Networks to enable EDI, automate three-way matching and integrate with third-party systems. The solution delivered scalable, uninterrupted processing of over one million messages per day, faster and more accurate invoicing and order-to-cash times, reduced paper handling, and a successful on-time, on-budget rollout.
