The client, a multi-billion Rand conglomerate selling a wide variety of value-added products, has a corporate structure consisting of some 22 subsidiaries and over 40 major partners. The value chain is complex, with a variety of product providers with different business models, and widely differing sales channel models. Many of the products are provided on a consignment basis, with virtual stock issued to our client which is in turn issued to the sales channel. Accounting for the value chain was extremely difficult, with estimates driving the reporting to shareholders and the regulatory authorities such as the stock exchange. Full reconciliations were only possible once a year, with the associated risk of errors causing losses or significant effort to recover funds. The annual audit was unsustainably expensive, with a massive disruption to administrative staff and sampled results that might not stand up to examination. Hundreds of different reports were run, wasting time and causing confusion. The client asked Youngblood to assist with automating this reconciliation process.

A specially customised deployment of Microsoft Dynamics CRM and Dynamics NAV assisted Blue Label Telecoms to streamline business processes and customer management Blue Label Telecom’s core business is the virtual distribution of secure electronic tokens of value and transactional services across its global footprint of touch points. The group’s headquarters are in Johannesburg, South Africa and also has operations in India, Mexico and the UK. Its strategy is to extend these touch-point terminals both organically and acquisitively to fulfil the significant demand for the delivery of multiple prepaid products and services through a single distributor, across various delivery mechanisms and via numerous merchants or vendors. Within emerging and developing economies, the supply of products and services via prepaid channels is becoming an increasingly significant distribution model. This is because the distribution of physical product is often logistically difficult and a significant portion of the consumers in these markets are unbanked or badly banked and therefore, have to transact in cash as many do not qualify for credit. Core products are prepaid airtime and data for all mobile networks, prepaid electricity via online and offline vouchers, bill payments/financial services, including card acquiring and acceptance, utility bills and other accounts like DSTV and traffic fines, ticketing such as transport (bus, trains, aeroplanes), events and entertainment (festivals, exhibitions, concerts, sports, football, cricket) and vouchers such as shopping vouchers, prepaid pay TV, Lotto and gaming.
