Proven approach & results

How we approach delivery and evidence outcomes

We do not publish unverified customer figures on industry pages. This is how we make outcomes measurable in an engagement.

Baseline first

We agree the starting measures with you before design, such as waste and returns, on-time delivery and yield by recipe.

Delivery in stages

Releases are phased by site and process, so each stage is tested against real operations before the next.

Measured against your targets

Dashboards report the baseline measures from go-live, so benefit is judged on your data.

Examples of Routeget engagements can be discussed in a discovery call, subject to client approval for each reference.

Frequently asked questions

Food & Bakery Production ERP for Dynamics 365: questions buyers ask us

We usually start with a short discovery and a process review of one bakery line and its key customers. From there we propose a phased scope, which can be fixed-scope for defined releases or a time-and-materials team for ongoing improvement.

Route loads, deliveries, returns and invoices are handled in one flow.

Allergen data is attached to recipes, lots and labels.

You do. The solution runs in your own environment, and configuration, data models and reports are documented and handed over so your team can maintain them.

Pricing and timing follow scope, including the number of products, routes and outlets. We share an estimate after discovery, with assumptions and exclusions stated, and we confirm timelines only after reviewing your landscape.
