A Collaborative Effort: Mediq and Creative Software Partner for ERP Success

Mediq, Streamlining Healthcare Operations Across Multiple Countries;Mediq partnered with Creative Software to implement IFS Applications 10 (IFS App10) as a unified Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system.

About Mediq

Mediq is a rapidly growing international healthcare company with leading market positions in 14 European countries. Headquartered in Utrecht, the Netherlands, Mediq has a workforce of over 2,500 employees dedicated to improving healthcare outcomes and enhancing the affordability of care.

Challenges Faced

While IFS App10 offered a solid foundation, its standard features did not fully meet Mediq's specific business requirements in the complex healthcare market. To align the system with their unique processes, Customization and configuration were necessary. Moreover, Mediq sought ongoing performance improvements and timely resolution of user-reported issues.

The Collaboration

To address these challenges, Mediq collaborated with Creative Software to form a joint development team composed of experienced IFS technical consultants. This team held regular tri-weekly meetings to discuss requirements, resolve user issues, and share critical information. Furthermore, on-site visits were conducted in both Sweden and Sri Lanka to facilitate effective communication and ensure a successful implementation.

Collaborative Approach

Creative Software assigned dedicated technical consultants to the Mediq project, guaranteeing expert handling of all technical aspects of the customization and implementation process.

  • Application Maintenance & Support: Offering ongoing support to maintain system stability and address user inquiries.
  • Performance Improvements: Continuously optimizing system performance for enhanced user experience.
  • Customization of Standard IFS Features: Modifying existing functionalities within IFS App10 to perfectly fit Mediq's business requirements.


Solutions Implemented

  • Ongoing Support: The collaborative team provided continuous support throughout user testing, the go-live phase, and the critical post-launch hyper-care phase, ensuring a smooth system transition.
  • Performance Enhancements: Regular performance optimizations were implemented to enhance system responsiveness and user experience.

Collaboration Highlights

The successful go-live of IFS App10 was achieved in Sweden, Norway, and Finland, with Denmark scheduled for implementation in the following year. This collaboration resulted in Mediq acquiring a tailored ERP system that caters to their specific needs and surpasses the capabilities of the standard solution. Furthermore, Creative Software's commitment to ongoing support and maintenance continues to ensure system stability and efficiency.

Working with Creative Software has transformed Mediq business operations.
