Baosteel Olofström + Softhouse – Increased control in line with growth

Baosteel Olofström + Softhouse – Increased control in line with growth

As Baosteel in Olofström grew, the demands for structure, transparency and reliable information increased. Together with Softhouse, inventory and order management were digitized to create a better overview, faster insights and a way of working that works in everyday life – even when the pace increases.

Limited overview in a growing business

Baosteel Olofström lacked a comprehensive picture of inventory status, order flows and ongoing processes. Much was handled manually or in separate systems, which made it difficult to get a complete picture and to act in a timely manner when deviations occurred.

The need was clear: a system that could be trusted, provided a quick overview and was at the same time built to be able to develop in step with the business.

A workflow that actually works in everyday life

Together with end users, Softhouse developed a new way to collect, visualize and use data. The focus was on making the right information easy to see immediately – with the ability to delve deeper when needed.

  • Automated flows that collect data from multiple sources
  • Visual views designed together with users
  • Quick status overview and the ability to discover trends
  • All information collected in one place, available to the entire team

More time for the right things

The new system provides both a quick overview and better control over details. The team doesn’t have to spend time searching for information and can instead act immediately – before small deviations grow into bigger problems.

“We have a way of working that keeps up with our growth.
It saves time, reduces mistakes and provides better foresight.”

  • Faster workflows and fewer manual steps
  • Clearer decision-making in daily work
  • Reduced risk of errors and missed deviations
  • A solution built to scale with the business

A system to grow with

The collaboration between Baosteel Olofström and Softhouse resulted in a stable, user-friendly and future-proof solution that provides control here and now – and supports continued growth.
