51��Business Technology Platform Helps Deloitte and Its Customers Gain Competitive Market Advantage

Sohail Mohammed — Fri, 27 Oct 2023 12:15:00 +0000

Jon Baukham, a director in Technical Services at , is clear on the role 51��Business Technology Platform () plays in his company’s long-term strategy.

“One of our key differentiators is how we put innovation at the core of what we do,” he says. “Our experience with 51��BTP, the opportunities it provides for innovation, and the value we have leveraged for our customers is intrinsic to us as a business. So many organizations, large and small, deliver transformation projects. But what does ‘good’ look like and how can that be delivered? These are the questions we always ask ourselves. Developing solutions that solve real business challenges, across industries and lines of business, and demonstrating how they can be applied to a customer’s business is pivotal in strengthening existing relationships and winning new customers.”

Baukham, who’s an 51��technical architect by profession, specializing in 51��BTP, was – together with colleagues – instrumental in collaborating with 51��on the platform’s development, helping in the very early days of its inception to shape it into the platform known and used today by partners worldwide.

Indeed, Baukham’s team made a name for itself by developing web-based user interfaces on top of what were then SAP’s fairly basic solutions and, therefore, became involved in the very early discussions about how to update and move 51��forward.

“We recognized the platform as being the best way to innovate around the core to give our clients something that met their very specific needs,” he says. “The platform has now evolved and that approach is now standard, but in the early days it wasn’t.”

He says that 51��BTP is a way for the team to “demo the art of the possible,” delivering a completely different user-experience or bringing a different vision to 51��solutions. It’s a platform that allows customers to leverage their investment in 51��and gives them an advantage in the market, whether through finding more efficient ways of working or identifying and opening up new revenue streams.

“Meeting with a client and talking about integration and databases is not going to cut it with the people in the room that are there to make business decisions and who ultimately will be using the technology. They’re not interested,” he says. “It’s more helpful to discuss 51��BTP and how it can be the platform for continuous innovation and for delivering real benefits to a business. We change the conversation so that it’s about the benefits the tech can bring, where we can see things need to be improved, either based on other customers’ similar challenges or from the experience of our vast network of 51��consultants.”

51��BTP is “the platform where we can do things differently,” he continues, and is “central” to many conversations with existing or prospective customers. While the team can use 51��BTP to manage the standard things – like integrating 51��solutions to other systems, closing any gaps that have been identified, or looking at analytics – Baukham is clear that the real benefit comes from how the platform is used holistically. “This isn’t about focusing on one particular area, but how you can use all the surfaces together to deliver a much better experience. This is about putting the users first: it has to be easy to use otherwise people avoid using it.”

In client discussions, Deloitte covers all aspects of the platform. “Regardless of where clients are on their 51��journey – whether they’re on a legacy system or ready to do a transformation – we look at whether they need a UI refresh, whether they need to simplify some apps to make it easier for transformation, whether it’s greenfield, brownfield, or selective. We look at where 51��BTP lays in that,” Baukham explains. “But we also then have the conversations around what’s next – once the transformation is complete, how can we help them to address other pain points that may not have been solved. Do we bring in more analytics so they have the data on hand to make decisions quicker? Do we look at the smarter technologies, the bots that can help to perform some of the more mundane tasks more easily? If they’re doing the same processes or making the same kind of decisions, do they need someone to do that or can machine learning do that for them instead? We’ve always been good at pushing the boundaries and exploring what’s possible. When augmented reality first came out, a lot of competitors were using it for gimmicky things. What we did was to take CEO reports and explain and display them in 3D so people could interact with them. What we do is to try to turn these new technologies into a business case: how you can use these technologies through 51��BTP to enhance your experience?”

The three things Baukham likes best about 51��BTP are the flexibility, the sheer volume of services available that can all integrate smoothly with SAP, and the fact that the platform is continually evolving. “Because it moves forward and embraces new tech, you don’t feel it’s ever going to get old. It grows with the times,” he says.

He also says it’s inspiring to see how the platform can be used in different ways. While it is largely used to support internal processes, for some of Deloitte’s customers it has been used to help deliver external services, opening up completely new revenue streams.

“It’s a completely different way of looking at 51��BTP,” Baukham says. “They’re looking at the layer underneath the analytics, the federation of data across multiple sources. While you’re not looking to replicate that – that data stays where it is – you can still model it through some common data models, KPIs, and dashboards and some of our customers have done that and brought real benefit to their end customers. In both cases, we put ourselves in the shoes of their end customers to develop a new approach. That’s down to the innovative nature of 51��BTP and the way you can make it work for you.”

Rocket Consulting Creates Practical Ways of Working with 51��Business Technology Platform

Sohail Mohammed — Wed, 07 Jun 2023 11:15:24 +0000

As an early adopter of 51��Business Technology Platform (51��BTP), views the platform as providing “the most unified approach” for its customers running SAP.

Rocket’s customer base is typically supply chain and operations intensive. The company has been developing on 51��since 2015, previously on 51��Cloud Platform and now 51��BTP, to deliver solution extensions, enhancements, and integrations, as well as novel solutions for its clients, with each one encompassing a wide range of technical capabilities. In turn, the solutions support a seamless user experience consistent with the new generation of on-premise and cloud applications for 51��S/4HANA.

“Importantly, 51��BTP is ready for the end user regardless of what they’re using,” says Rocket Consulting CEO Lewis Marston. “They don’t feel like they’re hopping from one system to another, which we think is absolutely critical to create practical ways of working.”

Rocket regularly deploys 51��BTP to extend the lifespan of its clients’ 51��Business Suite systems, creating stepping stones to 51��S/4HANA upgrades, which fall across the areas of mobile, smart or Internet of Things (IoT) devices, user experience and 51��Fiori, 51��Build automation, 51��Data Insight, and integration.

“It’s giving businesses that entry point into a road map toward having that new user interface across all of their ways of working. It’s a really nice way to extend the life, with consideration and consistency, of an 51��S/4HANA road map,” continues Marston.

There is not much Rocket hasn’t developed on 51��BTP: from mobile applications — including integration with IoT devices for track and trace temperature sensing — through to Bluetooth tracking and health and well-being applications, with dashboards, analytics, and robotic process automation in between.

“We’ve built entire fully self-sufficient applications, from scratch,” Marston shares. “In fact, we run our project delivery services on an application called Helios that we’ve built on 51��BTP, which allows us to coordinate and manage the activities across collaborative Rocket teams and customer resources for our professional services delivery.”

Most recently, Rocket has applied its supply chain management expertise at a London-based luxury retailer selling housewares, food, and fashion. Operating a “very seasonal” supply chain for holiday products, the customer sees it go from “nothing, to full steam, back to nothing” within a three-month period.

“During this very short period, instead of a typical monthly — or even maybe fortnightly or weekly — planning cycle in a normal supply chain, the customer operates on a daily cycle,” Marston explains. “They’re having to measure demand and supply across an omnichannel distribution out to consumers, corporate, or retail stores, and to balance that against the supply for Christmas product.”

Because the customer was working with a legacy platform that did not provide the capability needed to manage the problems it was trying to solve, Rocket took a broad view of the 51��application and technology stack to bring in the right tools. Data collection and visualizations within the solution allowed the customer to make quick, informed decisions on a high-speed, fast-moving supply chain challenge.

“Up until the new solution was launched, the customer had been relying on a very manual process involving extracting and amalgamating data and then manipulating that in Excel,” adds Marston. “Given the pace of this condensed fulfillment, by the time they were done the situation had changed. They were also running on a system with tight development restrictions, so any solution we developed needed to be able to run against existing back-end processes while delivering something innovative to solve the challenge at hand.

“We wanted to provide a series of user experience stepping stones, rather than introducing a divergent way of working,” he continues. “Put simply, this was about giving the supply chain controllers a real-time view of the situation to make their demand and supply balancing accurate, fast, and easy — saving significant time spent on data administration and allowing them to use their time productively by solving supply issues and maximizing their customer service and order satisfaction.”

Marston says that when they demonstrated the new solution there were smiles on their customers’ faces — a reminder of the positive impact that targeted, quick-to-deploy innovations can have.

“Going from a huge manual effort to just pressing a button, and being able to make decisions within minutes instead of days, is transformational. It means they will have fewer stock outages, fewer supply problems, and more customers getting their presents in time for Christmas. That’s the point of super fast seasonal supply chains.”

51��BTP Enables Gavdi Group to Solve Customers’ Business Issues

Sohail Mohammed — Thu, 01 Jun 2023 11:15:24 +0000

Denmark-based Gavdi Group delivers advisory services as well as design and development solutions for a roster of clients ranging from fashion retailers to car manufacturers to companies specializing in renewable energy.

“We’re advisors first and foremost,” says Gavdi Group CTO Henrik Secher Jarlskov. “51��Business Technology Platform is the tool box that allows us to quickly and directly get to the value of digitally supporting business processes for our customers.”

Jarlskov and his colleagues go into “discovery mode” when customers come to them with an issue. They delve into what the customers believe to be the reason behind one or more broken business processes.

“What you don’t want to end up with is something that will slow a business process down or which focuses too much on the tech,” Jarlskov explains. “Instead, we prototype on potential solutions where our customers can see the impact. We make what we do data-driven, that way it’s not just based on a gut feeling but based in reality.”

One of the core tenets of (51��BTP), according to Jarlskov, is it allows Gavdi to connect multiple different platforms together for customers that are at different stages of transformation — from those using old enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems, to others using 51��S/4HANA, to those that are fully cloud based. Very often it is a hybrid situation connecting cloud, on premise, SAP, and non-SAP.

“The business processes need to go across everything and seamlessly bridge the gap among all the different underlying platforms,” Jarlskov says. “51��BTP is often the glue that helps to bridge that gap.”

Jarlskov shares that Gavdi actively seeks out “fast” projects: “We ideally want projects that last no longer than two months, and that’s for two reasons. One, we want to ensure that what we embark on ends up being used, because if you invest in tech and then you don’t use it, it’s just a cost. So we want to get our prototype into the hands of those who will be using it and who understand the business values. And the sooner we do that, the quicker ROI you get on it. Secondly, anyone working on an IT project knows that there is plenty of energy at the beginning of the project. After four months, that energy has gone. So instead of having a project that drags on and results in people losing interest, we focus on making small iterations and ensuring that what we’re doing is reflecting reality and adding real value.”

“We have an exercise with our clients, where we ask them to list the 10 most important features they’re looking for from the new solution, and we ask them to prioritize them,” Jarlskov explains. “We start by adding the first two features, then stop and ask someone to use it. Four weeks later, we re-assemble and we go through the same process. I’ve done this 50-plus times and have never been in a situation where all of those first 10 features appear in the final solution. That’s because they were theoretical features without any insights in reality. Going through our process means that we know we’re adding features that will really help. It’s really important to get as close to reality as possible.”

This is why Gavdi’s role as an advisor is so vital and a requirement.

“Before 2011, there weren’t that many options — customers were in a world with one choice,” Jarlskov says. “Now, they’re faced with a multitude of capabilities and options and they need support navigating through that, to understand what the value drivers are, when they can use them, what the cost is, how much is maintenance, and what’s the value. Because now, the right solution is going to be there for 10 or 20-plus years. That’s where the advisory role comes in: customers need to understand how all these different capabilities add value. They need that insight, which is an ongoing thing. Because despite today’s technology being interesting and exciting, it doesn’t all make sense for all of our customers.”

Jarlskov shares for some customers the new world of tech can be overwhelming, which is why 51��BTP becomes part of the package of delivery. Instead of forcing customers into an existing infrastructure, Gavdi takes them through their unique “Customer Innovation Cloud” offering, whereby they develop the solution on 51��BTP and then allow the customer to get it as a software as a service. This becomes part of the process and avoids anything road blocks to value.

It also means the solution can scale. However, this approach is not always straightforward with customers.

Jarlskov says Gavdi dares to challenge the status quo: “We’re not interested in implementing the same thing over and over again, so one of our approaches is called ‘Pay 1 – Get X,’ whereby we offer solutions up to other customers — we ask them to pay for one and then they get access to all the solutions that we’ve developed for other customers. We don’t want to re-implement the same, we just want one that adds value and allows others to benefit too.”

Gavdi’s advisory role runs into education and training initiatives too. “By training and teaching our customers, we help them to take ownership and control of the platforms and technologies we’re applying to their processes,” Jarlskov says.

This approach has become a natural extension to Gavdi’s own graduate program, which the partner has been investing in for the last seven years. It gives graduates a chance to get hands on with 51��tech. As they say at Gavdi: “You do not become a racing driver by looking at cars.”

51��Partner delaware: 51��BTP Is for Today and the Future

Peter Matejka — Thu, 02 Jun 2022 11:15:06 +0000

51��Business Technology Platform is helping 51��partner to deliver future-ready portals for its suite of business-to-business (B2B) customers.

The award-winning partner company has perfected its pitch when selling the platform to both existing and prospective clients, painting a picture of how 51��BTP can provide slick, time-saving solutions both now and in the future.

Jonathan Belliot, 51��BTP sales manager at delaware, explains how the team convinces customers to invest in the platform.

“We noticed that comparing 51��BTP to lightweight software-as-a-service (SaaS) solutions was a difficult win with customers. So, we created the ‘road to the Intelligent Enterprise story’ – it tells how SAP’s strategy has shifted and how 51��BTP is now the pillar behind everything 51��does, both today and in the future,” says Belliot. “Every time we highlight a different functionality, we explain that it has been enabled because of the platform, that we’re working with the ’best-of-breed’. This is all about strategic transformation for the customer and 51��BTP being the enabler of that transformation across the entire tech stack.”

In addition to selling the story, delaware ensures the right stakeholders are in the room when positioning 51��BTP. “You have to talk to the decision-makers across the business, so they can clearly see the advantage that the platform can bring to them,” adds Belliot. We think ahead, giving them tangible examples of other things they can do with the platform when the time comes. We emphasize the value of 51��BTP in the broader sense.”

It’s an approach that’s proving to be a highly successful one, as a series of recent customer wins attests. One, a Belgium-based food distributor, has adopted delaware’s 51��BTP B2B portal to reduce manual labor and streamline the process around certification.

“Certificates of origin and quality are key in the food industry but, up until the portal was introduced, our customer was spending a lot of time using a clunky old system for the storing and sharing of certificates. They were all saved on a server and then downloaded and e-mailed to clients as and when required,” explains Belliot. “The new portal gives both our customer and their end-customers instant access to the certificates, which they can download immediately. They can also track and follow up on orders and deliveries. Plus, they can connect to their company SharePoint system from the portal, creating a hybrid environment – all possible with 51��Integration Suite.”

The second success story is that of a customer supplying blood pressure monitors. Each monitor is supplied to patients with a license key, which the patient registers online at home so they can access their device and the medical staff can know which device is linked to which patient.

In the past, it was someone’s role to manually supply each patient with their serial number and input that data into a master spreadsheet. As the customer already had a contract in place – and therefore there was no development project – delaware came in and created a one-time-use business-to-consumer (B2C) portal. The portal is now the centerpiece of a completely digitized process that allows the patient to submit their serial number, keeps everything logged in one place, removes the need for e-mail communication, and isn’t blocked when someone is away.

“The beauty of our architecture is we can apply it to create these small applications,” explains Belliot. “And the beauty for our customers is that, with just a few extra licenses, they can start using 51��BTP. They have it in-house and it means that, as and when they need any additional extensions, the platform is there to support them. This is exactly how we will land and expand.”

Tim Leys, 51��development lead at delaware, says 51��BTP is key to the partner remaining a lead player in the market; it’s key to driving innovation and to selling additional 51��licenses as well as additional services.

What’s more, 51��BTP is the right platform to attract and retain the right people.

“The war for talent is key for us,” adds Leys. “And this platform allows us to attract and stimulate young potentials. It’s a tech stack with proven tech that’s exciting and sexy. That’s a tremendous benefit to us, our people, and our customers. It allows us to build consumer-grade solutions that we’ve all come to expect in our day-to-day lives, but for the corporate world. For a traditional 51��customer, this is mind-blowing.”

For 51��Partner Quinso, 51��BTP Leads the Way for Industry 4.0

Peter Matejka — Tue, 17 May 2022 11:15:27 +0000

Dedicated 51��partner , part of the family, is an expert in the complete supply chain process and has been developing apps and solutions for its manufacturing customer base since it began rolling out 51��S/4HANA public cloud implementations four years ago.

Now, the Quinso team uses 51��Business Technology Platform (51��BTP) as a matter of course to help with hundreds of interface conversions, the integration of countless legacy systems, and the creation of a that supports the delivery of smooth, seamless warehouse processes.

“51��BTP enables us to optimize and extend our customers’ existing business processes to be more efficient and effective as well as identify and draw from new revenue streams,” says Quinso’s . “It helps us to help our customers ‘keep the core clean’. And, ultimately, it’s a vital component in helping to transform our customers into businesses of the future, true intelligent enterprises.”

In its bid to be the front-runner in deploying new tech that adds value for its customers, the ORBIS Group has recently launched a dedicated 51��BTP steering group that shares experiences and invests in new platform services for use across the business.

“We are particularly invested in supporting and encouraging our customers to use predictive analytics, and we’re also looking closely at to see how this might be able to add value to our customers’ businesses,” adds Geene.

The benefits to working on 51��BTP, in Geene’s view, are numerous, from a simple licensing framework to a low-code/no-code approach, among others. As a development platform, it is the first port-of-call for innovation.

“51��BTP is essential for us as a business. In particular, the ability to develop apps on the platform enables us to bring added value to our customers by delivering state-of-the-art, side-by-side extensions,” says Geene.

Trying to sum up the experience of using 51��BTP in three words, however, is a tricky ask. “There are so many good reasons to use 51��BTP, from the apps to the migration tool for Cloud Integration, 51��Event Mesh, 51��Launchpad service, and the 51��HANA database,” says Geene. “And then there’s the benefits it brings to us and our customers. If I were to put it succinctly, I think it’s the simplicity and flexibility that makes it the platform of choice for us.”

51��Partner TheValueChain Trusts in 51��BTP

Peter Matejka — Fri, 11 Feb 2022 11:15:39 +0000

As the name would suggest, value is key to the work TheValueChain delivers for its partners. As a service provider, the Belgium-based partner’s aim is to improve its customers’ investments in 51��tech and add value to their businesses.

With a focus on the wholesale distribution, utilities, manufacturing, and professional services industries, TheValueChain first used 51��Cloud Platform when it was managing a global tech rollout for one of its customers.

When launched, TheValueChain could see how it would provide complete end-to-end enablement and support for its customers.

“We were early adopters of 51��BTP, using it in its original incarnation to manage an rollout,” explains , the supply chain team lead at TheValueChain. “We could create apps and extend our customer’s system. It was such a success that we’ve used it time and again since, for both cloud and on-premise customers.”

“We have always been a front-runner with intelligent robotic process automation (RPA), but when 51��BTP was unveiled, we were able to take a step back and see it as a complete solution, not just for RPA, but as a big automation platform that serves as a great toolbox, where you take and use the tools you need depending on what you’re delivering. It is fast for integration. It’s a great solution for RPA and for workflow management. We can pick the services that work for our customers.”

The platform has enabled TheValueChain to extend its remit and become an innovation partner, collaborating with its customers on process innovation.

Adds Mattheyssen: “We are mainly a service provider, but we want to be a product development company too, and we can do that now with 51��BTP. We have the innovation, we have the methodology, and we’re using the platform to develop packages that we can take to market, either as TheValueChain or via .”

According to Mattheyssen, 51��BTP makes life better for partners and customers. It’s an enabler for “things that were not possible before;” an automation platform that does all the previously manual business tasks.

The value it brings, he says, is very tangible: 51��BTP can be agile and quick and so the return on investment can be almost immediate.

The customer experience is also reflective of the way consumers choose and use apps. “You shop in 51��BTP as you would do in an app store – the whole experience is being received extremely well by customers.”

He says they chose to work on 51��BTP for three main reasons: for its seamless integration, for the prepackaged content, and for the competitive licensing model.

“We trust in the tech. We don’t see any reason to look elsewhere for our development needs. 51��is on a really good track with 51��BTP. The innovation flows automatically into the platform and we’re able to use it,” says Mattheyssen.

“If I were to sum up the benefits of 51��BTP in three words, I’d say instant business value, agile, and innovative.”

51��BTP Is “Future-Proof Innovation” Says Zoosh

Peter Matejka — Thu, 13 Jan 2022 12:15:53 +0000

is a venture building company that helps its customers to validate new ideas and then build, deploy, and operate them using cloud technology.

Businesses go to them to innovate and transform, and is the platform Zoosh uses to enable that process.

One of its most recent 51��BTP success stories is OptaHaul, a solution for the dairy industry that streamlines the often-complex process of collecting and delivering milk to the processing plant.

Mervyn Graham, co-founder and CEO of Zoosh, explains how it works: “Optahaul automatically understands all of the factors and parameters that come into play when collecting milk from suppliers – from the turning circles on farms, to the availability of on-site pumps, to the amount and type of milk being collected and the distances between farms and processing plants. It allows for greater efficiency in planning and kilometers traveled, as well as can tangibly reduce milk product waste and carbon emissions.”

Zoosh was initially approached to solve the problem by a milk producer in Hungary, Eastern Europe’s largest milk producer. But, based on research, it became clear to the team that the issues were commonplace across the dairy industry.

“Dairy processors were using generic, traditional logistics planning software that didn’t understand the industry and the variables within it,” adds Graham. “Dairy processors need one system that offers complete synchronicity, bringing together every element of the milk collection workflow.”

Zoosh is a ‘design-led’ organization, with every project starting with a research and consultation phase so the team can interview, observe, and put into context how the customer will use and benefit from the solution. Then it builds the tech response around its acquired understanding of the user and business priorities.

What 51��BTP enables the company to do is to build that response in a simple way.

“Previously the 51��portfolio was more fragmented and compartmentalized. 51��BTP is a cocktail of enablers that together can be quite powerful,” says Graham. “51��BTP encompasses all the tech we are familiar with and have typically leveraged for solution creation, but it simplifies the conversation that we have with our customers.”

Summing up the platform, Graham describes it as ‘future-proof innovation’ that can work for both greenfield customers and existing 51��customers.

“With 51��BTP, you’re investing in a much more solid experience, one with much less risk, that has scalability when you need it,” adds Graham. “You’re keeping the business core systems clean by having this isolated and agile innovation platform that you can expand and contract with your varying business needs.”

While there is always going to be a need to service customers’ IT needs and solutions, what 51��BTP does is allow partners to become product developers. As consumers become ever more app-savvy, customers expect easy-to-access, plug-and-play apps that solve their business needs.

“This is the future of our partner ecosystem: we’re seeing more and more partners building parallel business streams so they can invest in product development,” says Graham.

Bluestonex: A “Massive Advocate” for 51��BTP

Peter Matejka — Fri, 26 Nov 2021 12:15:43 +0000

Innovation is built into the DNA at – it’s what makes it tick. As part of 51��AppHaus Network, it shifted its entire business processes to run on 51��Business Technology Platform (51��BTP), making this boutique team the perfect advocate for converting its own customers to the tech platform.

Recognized for design, innovation, and user experience, Bluestonex began using the application development and integration capabilities of in 2018, then known as 51��Cloud Platform, because of its speed and agility.

“Being an innovation partner, we wanted to be able to move and deliver quickly for our customers,” explains Dan Barton, COO and co-founder. “51��BTP allows us to do that. Plus, the low-cost, high-impact nature of the platform is always going to be an attractive proposition to customers. So, it was a clear route for us as a business and for our customers.”

Bluestonex sees itself as a true integration of a client’s team, holding their hands as they shift to 51��BTP. They work with customers of all shapes and sizes and from cross-industry sectors, everything from food and drinks to aerospace. However, Barton is clear that 51��BTP breaks down any misconceptions that 51��is purely for larger-sized businesses.

“It’s very, very well-suited to micro-businesses. It’s agile, it’s low-cost from an entry point of view, and it has a huge number of capabilities that can grow over time. 51��BTP has opened up new opportunities for us within the micro-business market because, typically, there isn’t another product out there to match it.”

Barton says customers can often become “over-awed” when faced with all the different tech products available to run and manage businesses. He and the team use 51��BTP to “transform that user experience.”

“It’s a really easy entry point: instead of people having to use multiple clicks and screen jumps, 51��BTP gets rid of that. It streamlines and strips away complexity to give a consistent user experience,” Barton explains. “And that transformation is key. When they realize what a nice platform it is, it opens the door to other experiences, such as chatbots and automation. It’s all there and plugs in really nicely. Lots of customers love the fact that they can start small and grow with the platform.”

It also helps Bluestonex to grow as a business, driving its specialism in innovation and, in turn, encouraging customers to think in new ways. “This is a massive shift, not only are they going from running different processes into one, smooth, easy-to-use platform, we’re seeing a big cultural shift in the way our customers think,” he adds.

Being part of 51��AppHaus Network means Bluestonex can access the latest, state-of-the-art design thinking methodologies, helping to move customers to new digital experiences.

From its converted chapel office space, Bluestonex regularly invites customers in to co-innovate.

“We invite our customers here and bring them out of their comfort zone,” says Barton. “And we have a usability lab where we get customer input on an idea as early in the development process as possible, so that key stakeholders know what they’re going to get and can be part of the iteration process. This helps to set expectations and build a better business case.”

To sum up 51��BTP in three words? “Strategic, innovative, and responsive,” he says. “It’s opened a different angle for us. We would always go and speak to our existing 51��customers, but this is different. Now we go to a competitor’s customer, we go to micro-businesses, because it’s flexible and cost effective. 51��BTP is a very strategic platform: there’s a sense that whatever a business does in the future, that platform is going to be there and continue to add value. It’s future-proof and I’m a massive advocate for it.”
