It has partnerships with 170 rights holders in 25 sports and hundreds of sponsor brands and media companies. The Infront Group employs more than 900 people at 35 offices in 15 countries.
Initial Situation
Infront used to manage the contracts with partners, sponsors and media companies with its own software solution, but this was mainly used for archiving. There was no central repository and no process-integrated solution for handling the documents. For this reason, isolutions was commissioned to develop and introduce
a «contract management system» based on Microsoft Dynamics 365 and SharePoint. The goal was to standardize the management of contracts and to simplify access to them.
Solution
In cooperation with the customer isolutions developed a solution based on Microsoft Dynamics 365, SharePoint and the isolutions Collaboration Suite and implemented it in phases. Documents and information now reach the SharePoint portal via the CRM system without a media break to the collaboration suite portal, where they can be easily accessed and further processed. Contract data is available to all employees at all locations at all times. This simplifies and accelerates workflows. The exchange of information is optimized. In
addition, it was ensured that it remains traceable who has access to which data.
Benefits
- Contract information is globally available within the company at all times.
- Employees have faster access to information and can therefore work more efficiently.
- The exchange of information with the customer is simplified and also accelerated.
