Kaak Group Service: Find and purchase exactly the right parts!


Spare Parts Commerce

The Kaak Group consists of ten companies with highly qualified experts. We have been providing innovative, reliable, and high-quality products and services to industrial bakeries for over a century.

Kaak Group wanted to provide even better service to their global customer base. Ordering wrong spare parts should be a thing from the past. Furthermore, the customers should be able to submit and manage service tickets in the same portal. A one-stop shop for all service-related actions. And of course integrate with the ERP.

With Propeller, we have found a platform that delivers 95% of our requirements as standard and a partner with extensive experience with complexity.

Spare Parts Troubleshooting

Kaak customers order spare parts themselves online. They can contact the sales team for advice on more complex questions and large orders. Quotes are then jointly handled digitally.

  • Drill down from blueprints, from the production line to specific parts

  • Large quotations are handled digitally together with the Kaak service rep

  • No more errors in spare part orders

The total order processing – simple, large, complex – has now been digitized. No more data silos. But built-up intelligence for up- & cross-sell and personalized marketing and sales campaigns. The service of Kaak Group is now not only more productive but also more effective.

Zero-touch Ordering

When a customer orders spare parts, possibly with the help of their sales team, they are processed in a fully digitized manner.

  • No more administrative actions required for sales and purchasing processes

  • Links with all surrounding systems (ERP, CRM, Services Tickets, Engineer Planning)

  • Automated purchasing from own stock and/or from distributors

Not only administrative actions have been reduced to zero. The number of incorrect orders has also decreased significantly. In short, cost savings go hand in hand with greater customer satisfaction.

Digital Self-service Portals

Customers of Kaak Group have access to their own personalized portal. Not only convenient to place orders, but also the place to be able to perform many service activities.

  • They can easily (re) order, make favorites lists, or place orders

  • But also tap to view invoices, contracts, and statuses

  • And log service tickets, register returns, or schedule a service engineer

Because their customers know how to find their way blindly, the service department is free to work on real customer challenges.
