Bergeijk, April 2, 2025 – WILVO Group, a high-tech partner for parts & assemblies and transport solutions—comprising WILVO, ITEQ, The HUB Development, and WILVO Precision (GFM, Van Den Broek, v.d. Elsen, and Metalnet)—has chosen Scherpthe and Epicor Kinetic, a cloud-based ERP platform, as the backbone of its digital transformation. This strategic decision supports the further growth and optimization of business processes within WILVO Group.

With locations in the Netherlands and plans for international expansion, WILVO Group aims to enhance operational efficiency and ensure scalability in an increasingly complex supply chain.

Geerings emphasizes: "Thanks to Epicor Kinetic, we can better standardize our processes while continuing to meet our customers' specific requirements. This balance between efficiency and customization is crucial for our success."

As a specialized implementation partner, Scherpthe will guide the process to tailor the Epicor ERP platform solutions to WILVO Group’s operations. "Scherpthe’s expertise in digital transformation and process optimization, along with their experience in the metal and manufacturing industries, makes them the ideal partner for this transition," Geerings affirms.

Steven Doesburg, CEO of Scherpthe, adds: "WILVO Group operates in a complex and demanding environment where flexibility and scalability are essential. Epicor Kinetic aligns perfectly with these needs. Moreover, we see a strong cultural fit—both of us are pragmatic and entrepreneurial."
