Background

Devi Group AB, a leading consultancy in sales and growth with approximately 100 employees, faced a challenge in March 2024. The company needed to switch to an outsourced finance department and replace its existing business system. Liminity was invited to collaborate with Devi Group to streamline processes for time reporting, payroll, and sales.

The Challenge

Devi Group's self-developed business system based on Laravel and PHP had become increasingly costly to maintain due to the company's rapid growth. The system could not adapt to new needs quickly enough, leading to inefficiency and rising costs. In addition, it was poorly integrated with other systems. Transitioning to outsourced finance required a smooth, cost-effective, and user-friendly solution that could be implemented quickly and scale with the company's continued growth.

The Collaborative Solution

Liminity and Devi Group formed a joint team to address the challenge. Liminity contributed deep expertise in Microsoft Power Platform and laid the foundation for the system architecture. In just two weeks, the team developed a new business system that included:

Power Apps for an intuitive interface
Power Automate for process automation
Power BI & Fabric for data analysis and reporting
Microsoft Teams integration for daily use

Liminity focused on creating a robust and scalable architecture, while Devi Group provided detailed insight into their business processes and specific needs.

Implementation and Results

The new system was implemented in Microsoft Teams with immediate and sweeping results:

Cost savings: Significant reduction in licensing and maintenance costs versus the previous system.
Improved data quality: Marked decrease in errors and increased reliability in data handling.
Increased productivity: Easy order registration and effective control tools for all employees.
Real-time insights: Up-to-date forecasts through Microsoft Fabric and Power BI, enabling faster and more informed decisions.

Customer Feedback

Arez, CEO of Devi Group AB, commented:

"The collaboration with Liminity has transformed our way of working. Their expertise in Power Platform, combined with our business knowledge, resulted in a solution that exceeded our expectations. We especially appreciate how they equipped us to continue developing the platform internally."

Long-term Benefits and Continued Development

The partnership between Liminity and Devi Group delivered several long-term benefits:

Scalability: A flexible solution that can grow with the company and adapt to future needs.
Integrated workspace: Seamless integration into daily work via Teams, increasing usage and efficiency.
Improved decision-making: Real-time data for faster, better-informed decisions at all levels of the organization.
Internal competence building: Devi Group can now further develop the platform themselves, thanks to knowledge transfer from Liminity.

Conclusion

By combining Liminity's technical expertise in Power Platform with Devi Group's deep understanding of their business processes, a tailored solution was created that meets both immediate and long-term needs. This collaboration showcases the power of pairing external IT expertise with internal business knowledge.

Devi Group's successful transformation highlights the value of close collaboration between an experienced IT partner and an engaged client. Liminity laid the foundation for a powerful, flexible platform while providing Devi Group with the tools and knowledge to continue developing and adapting the system to future needs. This partnership has not only solved urgent challenges but also positioned Devi Group for long-term success in an increasingly digital business world.
