The BlackBerry solution was accepted by agri-producers because it meant they could always be in touch. Not needing a wire to send an email or make a phone call was a huge advantage to them. – Gaston Kauer, CIO, CTO, COO, CAGSA

Business Challenge:

Customer Success in Latin America

Compañia Argentina De Granos (CAGSA) wanted agricultural producers in Argentina to have a better way of communicating throughout the supply chain that affects the time to market for their crops.

Solution:

CAGSA worked with their carrier, Telecom Personal, and a developer, Syncrologix Mobile Solutions, to adapt Syncrologix’s SmartTasks™ application. Agricultural producers use the application on their BlackBerry® smartphones, which connects with CAGSA’s ERP system, to arrange for grain pick ups, track shipments, request fertilizer and supply delivery and check market and weather conditions.

Results:

  • CAGSA is perceived as a market leader
  • Agricultural producers are more loyal to CAGSA since the system makes them feel secure about their grain shipments
  • Many agricultural producers use the BlackBerry smartphone for their families, instead of phones
