Driscoll’s is more efficient and environmentally friendly thanks to ISPnext

According to Carin de Jong, an Accounting Supervisor and therefore responsible, among other things, for the Accountants Payable process within Driscoll's, "Our invoice processing process was obsolete, but thanks to ISPnext we can now save both time and costs by sharing work across business units in Europe. In addition, it enabled digital archiving, which is also a cost saver. But above all, it is much more environmentally friendly. Driscoll's is committed to sustainability. This is reflected in our innovations in packaging materials, moving from plastic to a more sustainable solution with paper." 

Carin looks back on the implementation with ISPnext: "Thanks to the plug-and-play interface, there are little to no development costs on our side. The promised flexibility has been delivered and ISPnext has been very patient with our long run-up, which we needed to give a final GO. We cannot imagine, that any other party has been as cooperative and flexible as ISPnext. They are very approachable and flexible. Also, the identification of our needs and the match between ISPnext and our processes was done very professionally. We have extensive internal procedures to monitor our ERP system. ISPnext handled this very professionally."

Carin: "Rolling out ISPnext across multiple locations and accounting systems requires good collaboration and tight management. Together with the European Controller and our Subject Matter Expert, we were the project leads within our European organisation. We use ISPnext in our eight tax groups in the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, England and Morocco as well as at four different branches."
