Is devCenter right for you?

Built for SME manufacturers who need more than standard.

Two situations where devCenter helps SME manufacturers with the Boyum Solutions on SAP Business One, deployed or about to be.

Situation 01

The Boyum Solutions are live, but some needs are not met

Today
Beas Manufacturing, Produmex WMS or B1UP is deployed and running, but specific operational needs go beyond the standard configuration: calculations or validations in production, picking or receiving steps in the warehouse, dashboards for management.
What changes
Custom enhancements that make the deployed solutions work the way your plant needs them to.
See the five capabilities (on this page)
Situation 02

The Boyum Solutions are planned, and custom work is coming

Today
You are planning a Boyum Solutions implementation and already know that some processes, warehouse workflows or reports will need custom development beyond standard configuration.
What changes
Your custom needs go into the Business Blueprint and the solution architecture from the outset, not after go-live.
See the five capabilities (on this page)

BPAS proprietary roadmap

Steps 01–05. Where standard configuration stops.

smartStep, Excel to Intelligence, is the BPAS roadmap for SME manufacturers on SAP Business One: a maturity check and eight steps, each paying back before the next. devCenter works across steps 01 to 05, wherever the standard configuration of the Boyum Solutions stops.

What you receive

Three deliverables. Specified, tested, signed off.

Every devCenter engagement produces three deliverables that together make a complete, written down and supported customisation.

Your challenges, with As-Is and To-Be process models

Every custom need and challenge written down, with the As-Is and To-Be process models that govern the development, so each customisation is process-aligned, not technology-led.

Made in step 01 (on this page)

A detailed Business Blueprint of every customisation

Each custom script, workflow, report, dashboard or integration specified: what it must do, how it will be built, and the acceptance criteria that confirm it works. Every item delivered was requested and approved.

Made in step 02 (on this page)

Architecture, development, testing, go-live and training

The technical design of every customisation, development to the blueprint, testing, your users’ sign-off, deployment and training per role. Every customisation passes sign-off before it goes live.

Made in steps 03 to 05 (on this page)

In a BPAS gap review you get a short list of what is costing your plant dates and money today, and the order to fix it in.

Exactly what your plant needs. At the end of devCenter, your Boyum Solutions do what your plant needs them to do: not approximately, and not with workarounds.

Beyond the deliverables

Custom work that stays sound. And stays supported.

01Process adherence

Benchmarked to the APQC PCF®

Every custom workflow, script or report is designed and checked against the APQC Process Classification Framework®, so it reinforces a process in line with international best practice. Where a better process exists, you choose: automate the current process, or redesign it to the best-practice standard.

02Support after go-live

Kept current through maxValue

Every devCenter engagement connects to maxValue →, so the customisations are maintained, evolved and extended in each support cycle as the Boyum Solutions are updated and your processes change, without a new project each time.

Closing the gap

  1. Out of the boxThe standard configuration of Beas Manufacturing, Produmex WMS and B1UP.
  2. devCenterScripts, workflows, reports, dashboards and integrations, built to the blueprint.
  3. What your plant needsThe solutions do what the plant needs, without workarounds.
Where devCenter sits

After toolDeploy, before maxValue. For a reason.
