01. General objectives of the project
As the main player in transport and logistics in Belgium, Bpost wished to call on the expertise of Eutronix in this sector in order to renew its entire fleet of scanners for more than 10 years. On the one hand, for its sorting centers and on the other hand, for offices and postal points throughout Belgium.
02. Specificities of the project
As a public company, Bpost must operate with very strict and precise specifications for the implementation of any new innovative solution. The administrative part and the reporting of such a project take a very important place and should not be neglected. The project was followed directly by Eutronix a few years ago at the request of Bpost. From 2018, sales to Bpost will go back to indirect in line with the “business model” of Eutronix.
