Your digital customer or dealer portal

Responding to a changing world and adding value with digital is a daily activity for more and more B2B companies. In addition, there is a shift from product-oriented organizations to service-oriented companies. This, in particular, since customer loyalty, customer value and service experience go hand in hand.
 
Another trend is the increasing need to efficiently digitize repetitve tasks for teams, due to understaffing. And the increasing desire customers have to manage their tasks with your organisation online themselves. 
Business portals can offer a solution in this challenge.
 
The central point of an excellent business portal is data; a unique and indispensable source of insight for your customers, enabling them to operate even more successfully in the market. It also offers you valuable customer insights.

The client at the center of the digital collaboration

TRIMM starts from the perspective of the customer and the users. What are the needs of the customer? What tasks is he or she trying to accomplish? What information need is at the core of this? Which employees (or departments and systems) are involved and what tasks do they have? How can they improve their work for the customer? We make the difference by looking at the opportunities from these perspectives and connecting them to the business objectives and the company's organization.
Outside in, and inside out.

All IT systems in their power

Of course we understand that different IT systems are already used in the organization. They each have their own strength, and we will leave it that way. Our approach is characterized by a focus on integration based on a modular philosophy: we get the added value from existing systems and lay a custom portal layer over it. In doing so, we create flexibility and scalability and ensure that every system continues to do what it is intended for. We ensure that all tools can be used from one central location.
Flexible. Scalable. Modular.
