VFS is a leader in commercial vehicle conversions
“Aura examined the business in detail, spoke to people across all departments, and produced a comprehensive technology roadmap that was individually tailored to VFS.
“They then created a bespoke, user-friendly package that is exactly what the business needs for now and for our expected growth in the future. It’s created a culture shift internally; people realise there are so many opportunities they can now make use of.
“We were worried about business interruption with such a big IT overhaul, but the whole thing has been totally seamless.”
Walker said: “Where a business’s needs have grown in its early years, we often find all kinds of bolt-on, patches and
workarounds have been applied to keep the IT running. It’s very often easier to start with a fresh slate. The key is not to start with the IT but to begin with the business – how does it work, what do users need technology for, and how might that change in the future? Once we understand that, it’s easy to implement a road map for IT in the medium and long term.
“Your IT needs to be able to grow organically with your business, and that’s why we work closely with our clients to align their bespoke IT solutions to their business strategy and goals for the future.
“That way, we are able to support them every step of the way and ensure that they have the technology and software to succeed as they grow.”
