A Smarter Approach to Digital Transformation
Damstahl, a market-leading stainless steel wholesaler operating across Denmark, Germany, Sweden, Norway, the Netherlands, Slovenia, Finland, and Belgium, needed a way to handle large-scale product data efficiently. By implementing Perfion PIM alongside a new ERP system, the company significantly reduced double work and optimized data migration.
“My advice to others who consider upgrading their ERP system is to get started with the PIM part as early as possible. The clear and easy way of working with data that you learn by implementing a PIM system is extremely valuable—and you will already have a bulk of the data migration work behind you the moment you start your ERP project.”
– Anders Jensen, Digital & Marketing Manager, Damstahl
The Challenge: Managing Data During an ERP Upgrade
Upgrading an ERP system is a complex process, often requiring significant data migration. Damstahl needed a structured approach to managing its product information to avoid duplicating efforts and ensure data accuracy across multiple systems.
The Solution: Implementing PIM and ERP Simultaneously
By integrating Perfion PIM at the start of the ERP upgrade, Damstahl ensured that product data was structured, filtered, and easily accessible. This early adoption of PIM allowed the team to work with data once instead of manually handling the same information multiple times.
The Results: A More Efficient Data Workflow
- Simplified Data Migration: Perfion enabled structured data handling, reducing the workload during ERP implementation.
- Better Data Management: The ability to filter and view data in ways that Excel could not support improved efficiency.
- Future-Proof Approach: Damstahl now benefits from a single source of truth for product data, ensuring consistency across all platforms.
