Company Profile:

Bioforce, the Fresh Herb Company, was founded in 1963 by the eminent Swiss naturopath, Dr Alfred Vogel. Now Europe’s leader in herbal medicines, Bioforce is at the forefront of Phytotherapy, the science of using herbs to maintain health and influence illness. Bioforce combines the traditional knowledge of the herbalist with modern research techniques and produces a range of fresh herb tinctures from organically grown medicinal plants in Switzerland.

The system is designed and built to ensure future scalability as requirements change as well as enabling the integration of Sage Line 100. The solution also includes a Contact Management module which is accessed by the Sales Executives via mobile XDA devices.

The solution provides:

  • User Accessibility
  • Data management and warehousing
  • Content Management
  • E-commerce application building blocks
  • Integration with third party data sources and systems
  • XML - based business process orchestration and integration
  • Security - secure socket layer and firewall protection

Products & Technologies Used:

Combination of Microsoft's .NET enterprise technologies and EBS's Inforgen™ v2.4 platform.

Customer Reference:

"We have found EBS to be a highly motivated company with a strong level of expertise. Their efficiency helped enormously with the smooth development and integration of the Inforgen platform enabling us to extend our head office systems onto the web and into our sales force. This flexible platform gives us the ability to manage the transactions between our website and Sage accounts seamlessly. Our choice in EBS as partners and the Inforgen system as the platform was proven and justified by the outcome of the project."
