Ordering materials easier than ever at Veldeman
Veldeman has long been a trusted name in the painting and finishing sector. With dozens of sites and multiple subcontractors working simultaneously, a smooth logistical flow is crucial. To make ordering materials and paint faster and more efficient, Metanous developed a user-friendly app that supports both employees and subcontractors on a daily basis.
Control over every order, across every site
Veldeman manages hundreds of projects, thousands of products, and over 100 painters. Managing orders in a structured way is therefore a challenge. Without a central system, oversight can be lost, leading to extra work and delays. Veldeman sought a solution to make the ordering process clearer and more efficient.
Where does Veldeman gain efficiency?
The application covers the entire process from ordering to delivery, with thoughtful functionality that supports control, ease of use, and logistical efficiency.
