1. Kernel Approach

This special approach allows starting development of the solution on a local level and roll-out the base CRM functionality to multiple markets in different regions based on the Salesforce.com Cloud-solution. Development and maintenance of single code branch (kernel) with market-specific and local extensions balance forces between central and local approach.

2. Extension Platform

The Kernel approach uses the extension platform (EP). From an architecture point of view this solution includes Salesforce.com and an integrative component called extension platform (EP).

With this EP it is possible to easily connect additional localized systems to Salesforce and ensure that based on the Kernel concept local business processes can be included and implemented and a fast and inexpensive roll-out to localized markets can be realized.

3. Global Delivery

The Kernel architecture leverages best global assets across regions and is yet flexible enough to cater for market-specific requirements.

With the Kernel approach we follow a standardized process to identify and harmonize market variants to meet the challenges in highly complex projects throughout several markets. After defining the KPIs we create a solid basis for the Kernel approach and extension platform in accordance with global and regional processes.

Our CRM expertise is provided by a “flying squad”. The Business design and frontend development will be conducted by local teams in the native language. Cost-effective backend development is covered through near-shoring.
