Testimonials from Benoît Aumard, Director of Quality and CIO; Diane Hassanine, Director of Operations; and Emmanuelle Folliau, Head of RGH and Communications at UTI Group.
Founded in 1986, UTI Group is a publicly traded digital services company specializing in consulting and engineering in the banking, finance, insurance, manufacturing, and services sectors.
ISO 9001-certified and committed to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR), UTI Group has approximately 250 employees spread across four locations: Paris, Lyon, Strasbourg, and Marrakech.
A Need to Modernize Management Tools
Over the years, UTI Group has relied on several management tools developed in-house since the 1990s.
However, with the rapid evolution of technology and the prospect of retirement for certain key executives in charge of the information system and management tools, the company felt the need to modernize its processes.
Benoît Aumard, Director of Quality at UTI Group, notes:
“We needed to find a solution to upgrade our internal management tools, which were beginning to show their limitations.”
Faced with this situation, management opted for a turnkey solution rather than redeveloping a solution in-house: an industry-specific ERP system.
Choosing VSActivity: A Solution Tailored to UTI Group’s Needs
After a thorough analysis of the solutions available on the market, UTI Group chose VSActivity, the SaaS ERP developed by Veryswing, for several reasons:
-
Data Centralization : vsa brings together all information related to business operations, contracts, and employees on a single platform, thereby facilitating access to and sharing of data among the group’s various entities.
-
Multi-entity Management: The ERP system offers multi-company management capabilities, which are essential for an organization like UTI Group that comprises multiple legal entities.
-
Feature Integration: VSActivity combines operational assignment management with HR functions, enabling integrated management of assignment orders, consultant contracts, and related HR documents.
Benoît Aumard explains:
“One of vsa’s strengths is that it combines business management features—which enable you to oversee all operational aspects of contracts and assignments—with HRIS features.”
A close collaboration with Veryswing
Beyond the technical features, the relationship with the software vendor plays a crucial role in the success of such a project. UTI Group has found a responsive partner in Veryswing that listens to its needs. Benoît Aumard says:
“The Veryswing team is very approachable. Thanks to our close working relationship, it’s very easy to interact with both the support team and the consulting team, which regularly provides additional information.”
This close collaboration enabled the ERP system to be quickly adapted to UTI Group’s specific needs, thereby ensuring successful integration and optimal use of the system.
The integration of VSActivity went very smoothly. In three words: expertise, user-friendliness, and reliability.
“To sum up the implementation of VSA in one sentence, I’d say it was the smoothest IT project of my entire career,” explains Benoît Aumard.
Tangible results and efficiency gains
Since implementing VSActivity, UTI Group has seen a significant improvement in the management of its operations, as well as many other benefits.
Centralizing data has streamlined communication between the various teams and eliminated unnecessary data re-entry, thereby reducing the risk of errors.
Emmanuelle Folliau, Head of RGH and Communications, also explains that:
“VSA centralizes a company’s services as well as the details of our employees’ daily lives, which is very important in terms of day-to-day data for me and for the sales representatives.
“Every action is recorded so we have a snapshot.”
Thanks toprocess automation, time-consuming administrative tasks have been streamlined, freeing up time to focus on higher-value-added tasks.
In addition, the tool provides greater visibility into all projects and available resources, thereby facilitating decision-making and optimizing business management. Benoît Aumard explains:
“Before, the CRM system would sync with the billing system, or candidates would sync with employees. It was sometimes complicated between departments because they were using different software. Now, it’s all the same software: data flows more smoothly between departments, so it’s much more accurate and much more responsive.”
Benoît Aumard also highlights the increased proficiency of employees, who now have access to a modern and intuitive tool that improves their day-to-day efficiency.
