"The special thing about FÖRCH is the personal relationships that the field staff have with their customers, some of which have grown over decades. You can't digitize that away. On the contrary, you have to support it with digital tools, for example by using a renewed web store and our POLUMANA® app in combination with a modern ERP system."

The mission

In 2019, the decision was made to replace the aging, self-developed ERP system first in Germany and then also the respective systems in the approximately two dozen European national companies with SAP S/4HANA.

Among other things, this should create the prerequisite for future digital solutions. By future digital solutions, we mean contemporary tools such as an efficient and customer-friendly web store and a modern and reliable sales app. For the latter, FÖRCH opted for a solution based on the POLUMANA® app from BLUE-ZONE GmbH. In combination with a modern ERP system and the renewed webshop, a future-proof digital infrastructure was to be created.
