“In four weeks, Ares gave us that picture.”
Ares found more than 30 spreadsheets doing work our ERP should do and gave us a ranked plan for what to fix first. We have already set up a document management system and brought in a partner to rebuild our product configurator. Even if you know the industry, it takes time to understand how a particular business really works. In four weeks, Ares gave us that picture.
The problem
Tremonia was the first investment for RESVION, a private equity firm. RESVION starts every acquisition with a 180-day plan, and it brought in Ares to give that plan an accurate base.
“Tremonia was a carve-out, and like most carve-outs it required an ERP migration.”
“Much of how the work really got done lived with our people rather than in our systems.”
Discovery
“It was important to us to hear from everyone, from the management board to the paint shop, so every employee was invited to a confidential conversation with Ares in their own language.
“Shop-floor staff took part on their own phones during their shift, and the works council approved the project before launch.”
Clarity
“Ares found more than 30 spreadsheets doing work our ERP should do and gave us a ranked plan for what to fix first.
“We have already set up a document management system and brought in a partner to rebuild our product configurator.”
