A new simple and entirely digital, self-administered service thanks to Pimcore
Blackbit and Bikeleasing developed a strategy to maximally profit from convenient and uninterrupted processing of leasing contracts and insurance claims: moving away from paper, towards an online portal and app. The biggest challenge was the logical sequence of necessary sub-processes in the leasing business, their mapping in the system, and the automation: Which processes are triggered and which dependencies must be created within the system so that entire company bicycles processes can be handled as unbureaucratically as possible in a simple, uninterrupted user journey? Simply everyone should benefit from a pure company bike experience to meet the strong increase in demand and to continue to guarantee smooth leasing processes with the extra service typical for Bikeleasing.
"Since the newest developments based on Pimcore we gained customers with more than 100,000 newly registered employees, strengthened our position in Austria and raised potential growth to more than 38,000 companies with over 2.1 million employees."
Axel Hillebrandt, Head of Marketing at Bikeleasing
Solution
Synchronized data for simple user journeys for employees, employers and dealers
With the help of an API interface, Blackbit linked the customer relationship management (CRM) with the new application. Through continuous data synchronization, leasing contracts maintained in the CRM are automatically synchronized with the product information management system (PIM) and transferred to the app.
True to the mobile-first concept, the first step was to develop a version of the application that is optimized for mobile devices. and was creating the mobile version of the Bikeleasing portal in the new form of a web application, which end customers of the company bike service can also access via desktop.
Blackbit upgraded the Bikeleasing PIM and equipped the company bike provider with the latest version of the powerful open-source software and installed a language switch in the Bikeleasing portal so that it is available in English at the click of a button. This opened the company bike service to international customers living in Germany or Austria.
