Background: Iconic made-to-order furniture design
Despite what the name might suggest, Noodles is a furniture company. They've been specializing in iconic steel designs and transforming commercial and residential spaces since 1990.
With success came complexity: orders flooded in from their showrooms and website, customized and configured across every conceivable dimension, requiring meticulous attention to ensure every piece arrived at a customer's door exactly as envisioned.
Challenge: End-of-life ERP with zero room for error
When we first met the Noodles team, they were in a tight spot. In just a couple of months, their existing ERP would officially be considered end-of-life (EOL) and their solutions provider was forcing migration to a different on-prem system. Urgently, the team searched for a way out:
- They needed to integrate with their existing technology stack
- This had to happen fast
- And it needed to be in German
In a way, they needed an ERP vendor that operated like they did: craftsmanship, rigorous customer service, a commitment to quality, and a bit of style. Before DOSS, the team was managing custom furniture orders, showroom quotes, and 3PL data syncs manually.
Solution: Tailored modules for German manufacturing precision
DOSS deployed a complete ERP implementation in 14 days, migrating 40,000 records spanning 10 years of historical data with 8 custom files, 11 data objects, and 28 automated workflows—all configured for Noodles' unique business logic and localized for German operations.
- Made-to-order configurator: Configure-Price-Quote (CPQ) module streamlines custom orders, pulling catalog data to differentiate between custom configurations and standard dimensions, tailored to payment methods, sizes, and locations.
- Order & inventory management : Eliminated manual copy-paste of shipment and inventory data from 3PL partners via FTP folders, with automatic syncing via workflows.
- Integrations : Seamless connections across 3PL and e-Commerce partners, including WooCommerce, PayPal, Klarna, and FTP servers for showroom orders.
Impact: Year-long project completed in weeks
In just 2 weeks, DOSS delivered what should have been a 9-month implementation, saving Noodles over 100 hours monthly. The team gained faster operations, more control, and zero data-entry errors—all while maintaining the craftsmanship standards their customers expect.
“I've never worked with a company that's this quick and efficient. What should have been a year-long project was accomplished in weeks. It's absolutely impressive how DOSS handled everything.”
