A 99.9% service level within the 3PL industry sector isn’t a USP anymore. Timely and accurate receipt handling and distribution were already being delivered through our robust SAP investment.

Boughey achieves 90% increase in self-service POD retrieval with SAP B2B customer portal
When Cheshire-based leading distribution, warehousing and packing specialist Boughey Distribution Ltd. needed an SAP B2B customer portal, it turned to NTT DATA Business Solutions’ experts for help with it.mx customer portal implementation. Boughey takes pride in its growing reputation as the UK’s leading ambient grocery distribution, warehousing and packing specialist.
Following a major SAP ERP implementation project, Boughey was realising the benefits of accurate, real-time information in daily resource planning, decision-making and KPI reporting. Customers could contact their customer service advisor but Boughey wanted to make these tools instantly available 24/7, at the click of a button, with no compromise on accuracy or relevance. Boughey decided to commission a ‘new breed’ of customer portal based on a direct relationship with SAP, with no need for interfaces or third-party products. It.mx customer portal helped Boughey achieve a 90% increase in self-service POD retrieval.
