KAYDAN

How SAFIR Consulting helped KAYDAN turn faster access to reliable information into greater productivity, transparency and client confidence.

Executive Summary

In real estate, infrastructure and property development, information moves as fast as the business.

For KAYDAN Real Estate & Infrastructures, growth brought an increasingly important question: how could the company improve productivity while ensuring that reliable information reached the right people at the right time?

The business was looking to eliminate duplicate data entry, improve the circulation of information internally and provide clients with complete and reliable information throughout the different stages of an operation.

Following a competitive tender, KAYDAN selected SAFIR Consulting, which recommended SAP Business One Cloud as a solution adapted to the company’s needs. The impact was immediate and tangible: a client file that previously required six hours to prepare can now be completed in just 30 minutes.

Beyond the time saved, KAYDAN gained stronger transaction security, real-time traceability of information and greater confidence in the quality of information shared internally and with clients.

The Challenge

KAYDAN is an established player across the real estate value chain, supporting the design, development, operation and valorisation of property assets for private and institutional investors.

As its activities evolved, the company recognised that productivity was increasingly linked to the way information was managed. Duplicate data entry created unnecessary effort, information did not circulate as fluidly as the business required, and having reliable and complete information available throughout an operation was essential to maintaining transparency and confidence with demanding clients.

The priorities were clear:

Key Business Challenges

• Reduce double data entry
• Improve internal information flow
• Accelerate the processing of client files
• Strengthen the reliability of information
• Provide greater transparency to clients
• Secure and trace transactions
• Make information available in real time

The challenge was not simply to digitise existing processes — it was to create a more productive and dependable way of doing business.

The SAFIR Solution

Following a competitive tender process, SAFIR Consulting selected and recommended SAP Business One for KAYDAN Real Estate & Infrastructures. With SAP Business One Cloud, KAYDAN established a more integrated environment for managing business information and transactions.

Simplifying the way information moves — the solution helped reduce duplicate data entry and improve the circulation of information across the organisation, helping teams spend less time managing information and more time using it.

Compressing the time between request and response — the preparation of client files, once a six-hour process, now takes only 30 minutes — eliminating 5 hours and 30 minutes from the process.

Bringing transparency into the process — SAP Business One provided access to reliable and complete information throughout the different stages of an operation, supporting a more transparent client relationship.

Strengthening control over information — transactions are secured, information is traceable and business data remains available in real time.

Creating room for the business to evolve — SAP Business One also gives KAYDAN the ability to introduce specific add-ons according to its needs while remaining within budget.

Business Impact

The value of the transformation is visible not only inside KAYDAN, but also in the way the company engages with its clients.

Measurable Results

La différence SAFIR

KAYDAN’s transformation began with a business requirement: be more productive, more transparent and better equipped to manage information. SAFIR Consulting won the competitive tender and translated those requirements into a technology solution built around SAP Business One Cloud.

• Business understanding — focusing on the operational reality behind the ERP requirement: duplicate entry, information flow, processing time and client transparency.
• Right-fit technology — SAP Business One was selected because it could adapt to KAYDAN’s needs while allowing room for additional functionality as those needs evolve.
• Productivity by design — the objective was not to add another layer of technology, but to remove unnecessary effort. The reduction from six hours to 30 minutes for client-file preparation demonstrates that philosophy.
• Technology that builds trust — strengthening the availability, traceability and quality of information supports greater transparency and reinforces KAYDAN’s credibility with a demanding market.
• Partnership beyond implementation — the quality of the relationship created the confidence to consider extending the collaboration across the wider KAYDAN Group.
