While going through a period of growth, the Bernabé group began considering new technologies to support its business development.

The ideal system would:- Be flexible, and easily adapted to the different situations the company faces.

Bernabé selected LS Nav as its new system. LS Nav is based on Microsoft Dynamics NAV, an ERP that is well-known, and easier to customize than other solutions in the market. The choice of LS Nav was also motivated by the interesting back office functionalities, which enable Bernabé to build and deploy new offers rapidly.Increased efficiency
