Still running your business on Microsoft Access and Excel?
Mansfield’s Propagation Nursery is a fast-moving operation with more than 120 staff growing, tracking, and preparing stock for sale.
As the nursery expanded, its ageing Access database and disconnected spreadsheets became harder to manage. Managers were spending too much time gathering information and updating records instead of working alongside their teams.
A custom-built business application changed that:
-Managers now spend more time working with their teams instead of sitting in the office using the Access database.
-Staff can access the information they need from tablets while walking around the nursery.
-Sales always has visibility of stock that's ready to sell, while managers can track productivity across each stage of production.
Watch the video to hear directly from Mansfield’s and see how replacing disconnected spreadsheets and an ageing database helped them run the nursery more efficiently.
