Digital
Transformation
for Logistics and Distribution Companies
Improve order visibility, operational efficiency and cross-system reporting through connected digital infrastructure.
Logistics and distribution organisations operate in fast-moving, high-volume environments.
Orders must be processed quickly. Inventory must be accurate. Deliveries must be tracked. Finance must maintain margin control and customers expect transparency and responsiveness.
When CRM, warehouse systems and finance platforms are disconnected, operational friction increases and reporting becomes unreliable.
Avrion helps logistics and distribution businesses connect commercial, operational and financial systems into a unified digital environment.

As volume increases, these inefficiencies get worse.

What do our customers say?
“After a feasibility study designed to ascertain which CRM to integrate into our business, I found that Avrion put together the best end scenario and product, Maximizer, to take our business forward. The team at Avrion showed their diligence and knowledge, which was a clear deciding factor in instigating our partnership. We look forward to strengthening our relationship going forward, as CRM evolution never stops! We can now see in real time how all of our opportunities are progressing. We also have automated reports in our Dashboard module showing the business sales performance and pipeline, which allows us to focus on each individual opportunity without any being left unnurtured. Avrion has now linked our Maximizer with Mailchimp to allow for focused marketing campaigns based on the data we add to the Address Book. We now have a clear sales process that can be tracked with clear ‘what’s next’ actions to implement.”
Craig Sansom – Prestige“Data is one of the most valuable assets any business has, but unlocking its true value depends on quality, meaningful analysis, and having the right tools and skills to turn insights into strategy and revenue. Having worked with Avrion, I can say they really do bring the expertise to help businesses make that transformation!”
Catherine Royle – Restore plc“Avrion is able to grasp a concept quickly and turn it into a deliverable that can make a significant difference to a business. They take the time to understand the requirement, taking concepts and ideas and turning them into tangible benefits to achieve the best outcome possible for the customer. I'd 100% recommend Avrion. It's been a dream working with them. They have helped us at every point in this process. I've worked with people in the past where there's a bit of tension, but with Avrion they always helped to direct our journey, in a way that was working with us as a partner, over anything else.”
Jasmin Dudden – Restore Datashred“We have experienced a huge shift in the efficiency of the business with the all-round delivery of service.”
Tracey Hammond – Dengie“Avrion truly understood our business and tailored Dynamics 365 to fit our needs. The phased approach made adoption seamless, and we’re already seeing major time savings. Our internal processes are now streamlined, and we’re well-positioned for future growth. It’s a game-changer for us. Looking back, partnering with Avrion to implement Microsoft Dynamics 365 was one of the best decisions we made. Our operations are now efficient, our team collaborates seamlessly, and we’re equipped to scale our business with confidence. If your company is struggling with inefficiencies like we were, I highly recommend working with Avrion – they’ll make sure you get a solution that truly works for you.”
Raj Mahay – Resin Products“With our workload and team outgrowing our old method of workflow management, we needed a solution. Having worked with Avrion in the past, we asked them to take a look. Dave, Nick and Sam took the time to go through our process with us. It was decided that a ticketing system was required - the guys set up what we required and assisted us whilst we inputted our data and got it going. I think the level of customer service we have received from Avrion is 5 stars.”
Mike Bevan – SPM Instrument UK“Before Dynamics 365, we were managing tours through a mix of spreadsheets, emails and manual processes. Now, everything is in one place and works together seamlessly. The system is built around how we operate, not the other way around, and automates tasks that used to take hours. Most importantly, it gives us the flexibility to manage any type of tour and confidently support our continued growth.”
Karen Leggatt – Classic Grand Touring“Maximizer CRM has been an invaluable tool. It enables us to be very efficient, keep on top of client projects and opportunities, and deliver the service we want to for our customers.”
Graham Cording – Smart Presentations“Avrion is an agile, approachable, friendly company. They are easy to deal with and deliver on what they set out to achieve.”
Tom Crowther – Belvoir“At our internal review in 2019 we, as a company, asked if we were doing ourselves justice using Maximizer as our CRM solution or was there something better? We concluded that the price point for the system gives us a budget to develop our own specific customisations that are more beneficial for productivity and efficiency as well. After almost a year of trying unsuccessfully to engage with our existing partner, trying to get them to talk about upgrading and personalising the system, we decided to switch over to Avrion. Avrion had been in conversation with us and once we engaged with them, they immediately gave us something unique. They allowed us to effectively have an off-the-shelf CRM system that we could customise – at affordable rates. Rates that are competitive for SMEs. Once we formed a partnership with Avrion, for the first time in seventeen years we were working with a really engaged partner, which is something unique. Avrion enabled the changes to revolutionise our workflow through small steps that added huge impact. Not many people do that.”
