Our Company Timeline
-
Where the journey began - 2012
We were always obsessed with 'user experience' but back then we called it different things. The founders have lived long in the frustration of ERP systems and played a lot with user interfaces whilst trying to educate on carving out the most value from enterprise software.
-
‘Stick to what your good at’ - 2013
Its easy to get sucked into following the fashion and not trying to break the mould. We found the challenge a tough one but believed in what we did. The feedback from customers confirmed what we believed in. A few small wins but Design thinking, Innovation and UX was going to be here for a long time.
-
'Green shoots - 2014'
We started growing the company slowly but surely…carefully nurturing what we had started by investing in people (the right people). A new breed of SAP consultancy with a flair for design & a touch of pragmatism. We strived to bring these two sometimes contrasting skills to the SAP market. It is working. It is growing.
-
‘Out with the new, in with the old’ - 2015
Our Innovation office in the UK began. Sometimes developing on old technology but delivering a new user experience. A unique and simple solution to a very complex problem. ‘Don’t take this the wrong way but it is too simple’ was one comment. We thanked them very much for their observation.
-
‘Pastures new’ - 2016
We move into new areas of digital innovation and new industry sectors using design thinking to break down the barriers. We continue to grow our team and embrace new digital SAP technologies.
-
Design & Innovation Centre – 2017
Our new design and innovation center ‘The Church Offices’ in the heart of Shropshire. A refurbished old baptist church with the space, light and architecture to inspire customers and developers when working alongside us.
-
The Future of UX - 2018
New technologies emerge around user experience and we are on top of it. Whether it be plug and play UX in the cloud or on premise we can deliver our new UX transformation via ‘Blueskyx’ our new service offering.
-
Cloud Model for Customers - 2019
Cloud services are booming and Bluestonex are here to help customers get more from cloud services. We are one of very few partners offering a PMC model (Partner Managed Cloud).
-
AppHaus - 2020
We are very proud to announce that Bluestonex have been invited to join the App Haus network in May 2020. We are one of 10 global locations part of a global network of innovators/designers. Then came along COVID-19 which hurt every business in our domain. We have had to become even more agile and now offer our services via a new remote design thinking workshop methodology with the support of SAP and our new AppHaus network members.
-
Light at the end of the tunnel - 2021
In July 2021 Bluestonex were awarded gold partnership by SAP for continuous commitment in delivering software and services to our clients. Although COVID-19 is still here, the industry has adapted using different methods to deliver high value software and consulting. During this time, BSX have created new solutions via the SAP Business Technology Platform.
-
Data Governance meets Hyper Automation - 2022
During the pandemic, our R&D team worked in new user experience and automation technologies such as chat bots and iRPA available in SAP Business Technology Platform. We have now added these to extend our Maextro master data solution as well as our extension capabilities into SAP MDG. Users can now interact with these services (chat bots, excel and email) to create requests in Maextro and/or SAP MDG.
