ERP Software: Business Central + FuelVision365<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
AVIA Vollenhoven has relied on Microsoft business software and the expertise of Alistar\u2014formerly Logic Vision\u2014for nearly 20 years. An important tool in daily operations is Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, combined with the industry-specific solution FuelVision365. Schellekens: \u201cThe system supports our core processes: from customer management and fuel invoicing to point-of-sale modules. We hardly use Excel anymore; almost everything is handled through the system. The trip module and POS integration are also crucial for us. The software is modular and therefore flexible.\u201d In addition to Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, AVIA Vollenhoven also uses other Microsoft products such as Power BI and CRM. \u201cI prefer to use a single integrated system as much as possible. It\u2019s great for us that Logic Vision is now part of Alistar and has broader in-house expertise than just ERP.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Highest value<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
According to Schellekens, FuelVision365\u201cs greatest value lies in its ability to handle exceptions. \u201dIn principle, you can automate standard business processes effectively using almost any system, but it\u2019s precisely the exceptions that are important in our industry. For example, we have to deal with factors such as density and special units that are common in our industry. That\u2019s where FuelVision365 really makes a difference.\u201c Schellekens is also pleased with the updates that Microsoft continues to roll out in Business Central. \u201dThe analytics module in Business Central is constantly being expanded. That\u2019s very valuable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of 2024, AVIA Vollenhoven went live with Business Central following an upgrade from Navision 2017, the predecessor to Business Central. Schellekens greatly appreciates the collaboration with Alistar as the implementation partner. \u201cThe consultants\u201d expertise and calm demeanor were very reassuring during this implementation.\u201d Another key factor in the project\u2019s success was the time that AVIA Vollenhoven\u2019s employees set aside for it. \u201dWe spent the months leading up to the implementation working on scripts and test plans. That allowed us to complete the transition in a single weekend. Preparation is everything.\u201d
<\/p>\n\n\n\nGo with the Flow<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Looking ahead, Schellekens sees automation as an indispensable link in the energy transition. \u201cWe want to be part of the energy transition and make it as easy as possible for our customers. We can\u2019t do this alone. It\u2019s important that our partners join us in this effort. For example, we\u2019re currently working with Alistar to determine the best option for managing transactions from various authorization partners. So we really need our partners\u201d support when it comes to integrating with other software as well.\u201d
