Background
De Soi is a non-alcoholic aperitif brand crafting sparkling, botanical-driven beverages designed to bring complexity and intention to the NA space. Senior Operations Manager Antonio Landa is responsible for ensuring that production, inventory, and quality scales with demand.
Challenge
Like many early-stage teams, De Soi was running operations through a maze of “spreadsheets, duct tape and login portals.” Production planning lived in one sheet, bill of materials (BOM) with 50-60 raw ingredients in another, and finished goods inside their 3PL system. As the business grew, system delays accelerated:
“We couldn't make strategic decisions in real time. And so that's when we knew we needed to make a switch to gain back that time and start using it towards something else rather than focusing all our time on managing a thousand spreadsheets.”
- Antonio Landa, Senior Operations Manager at DeSoi
Solution
DOSS built an end-to-end production module for De Soi that automatically rolled ingredient-level costs into month-end COGS and connected seamlessly with the rest of their operations. With procurement , inventory , and orders centralized in one place, the team finally has a single source of truth—and a system that can scale with them.
“We chose DOSS because we couldn’t find anything else that could create a full production module. A lot of other ERP systems were very rigid and you had to conform around what they’d already built. DOSS was pretty much the opposite. It was very flexible and it molded to our business processes.”
- Antonio Landa, Senior Operations Manager at DeSoi
Impact
De Soi has seen significant time savings from DOSS’s order automation process, allowing them to scale more efficiently with tight control over cost and quality. Next, they’re hoping to get even more time back as they complete their DOSS roll-out with demand planning built-in.
