Verhoeven International and 9altitudes continue digitization with Dynamics and Annata

Verhoeven International is upgrading its entire organization to Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain.

Verhoeven International, supplier of earth-moving machines, undercarriage parts, equipment, and services, will upgrade its entire organization from the current Dynamics AX 2012 on-premise environment to Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain. This will be supplemented with Annata's industry-specific functionality in the Microsoft cloud.

Verhoeven International is a family business that has developed into an international service and trading organization over more than 65 years. With companies in the Benelux, Germany, and India that stand for quality and customer satisfaction. The companies belonging to the Verhoeven Group include Verhoeven Grondverzetmachines, VTS Track Solutions (design and production of undercarriages), Vereco (rental of earth-moving machines and equipment), Schäffer Nederland (sale of wheel loaders), VMT International (international export of undercarriage parts), and Schäfer (importer of Takeuchi in Germany). The Verhoeven Group in the Benelux employs a total of approximately 220 people.

In the current situation, various systems are used to support the organizations in the performance of their daily activities. There is a need for harmonization in supporting all processes within the organizations. Single-source data is the starting point for this. This led to the selection of a new platform to be implemented and a partner that can support Verhoeven in these important developments. After an extensive selection process, supported by the consulting organization IPL Advies, Verhoeven opted for the Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain platform.

Long-term partnership

Support for this transformation has been awarded to Microsoft's partner from the very beginning: 9altitudes. The choice for 9altitudes was made based on its many years of experience in implementing Dynamics 365 and its extensive expertise within organizations such as Verhoeven.

It is not surprising that 9altitudes has this knowledge, given the more than 15-year relationship between Verhoeven and 9altitudes. After all, the first European implementation of Microsoft Dynamics AX at the time with Annata took place at Verhoeven with 9altitudes as the implementation partner. This relationship has resulted in various best-practice solutions that are fully integrated with Dynamics 365.

In addition to the solutions from Microsoft Dynamics 365 and Annata, the extensive functionality of 9altitudes' 9A Advanced Manufacturing for F&SCM is also being deployed. This 9altitudes suite is a series of digital solutions that support project and manufacturing companies in their digital transformation, enabling them to achieve their business objectives in a cost-effective and future-proof manner.

“We have been working with 9altitudes for many years on the implementation of our ERP system (currently Dynamics AX2012). We now want to move on to the next phase of ERP with the implementation of Microsoft Dynamics 365 Finance & Supply Chain. We are delighted to be doing this again with 9altitudes, because we are really satisfied with the collaboration.”

Johan van Rozendaal, CEO Verhoeven International

Erwin Kooijman on behalf of 9altitudes: "The assignment does justice to our principles when it comes to successfully maintaining a long-term relationship, as befits ERP. We have achieved this by continuously delivering the added value you would expect from a business partner in the Microsoft ERP playing field. We are therefore incredibly proud that, even after 15 years, we have once again been entrusted with guiding Verhoeven through this major step and implementing it in collaboration with Verhoeven and the expertise of IPL Advies."
