ABOUT THE PROJECT
Why Salesforce
& Salesfive
Truma is the European market leader for heating and maneuvering systems in the caravanning sector. Since the beginning of 2019, the company has been working with Salesfive on the digitization of various business areas.
To leverage the competitive advantage of digitalization, Truma chose Salesforce as a comprehensive and scalable solution. For Truma, Salesfive was the perfect fit as a partner: the solution approach and the design of the collaboration met all requirements.
“Digitization with Salesforce and Salesfive gives us a significant competitive advantage. We are one step ahead not only in technology, but also in customer management.”
– Tobias Schwarze, IT project manager, Truma
Salesfive & Truma
Large project in three project phases
The complex introduction of the various clouds was implemented in three phases:
1. Digitization of sales and marketing 
In the first step of the digitization strategy, marketing and sales were initially connected to one another in a cloud in order to generate more in-depth knowledge about end customers. Furthermore, the strategic B2B sales was digitally expanded with new structures.

2. Digitization service – inside & field service
In the second step, the B2B and B2C service processes followed. With a multi-channel solution, all service requests are received in one system. The restructuring and digitization of the service processes is replacing the classic disposition: Optimized resource planning for the field service. The entire repair process, including warehousing, is carried out using the service technician’s mobile device.

Field Service Lightning implementation
- Restructuring of the entire service processes
- Partially automated planning of the service technician team with scheduling, travel times and direct indication of the problem solution

3. Digitization of the trader portal & warranty processing
The last step involved designing the partner portal. A new service and warranty process for traders and OEMs has been created with the Salesforce partner community. The specialty: an error catalog with click flows and an intuitive search function leaves the complexity out.
