Who is WIJeindhoven?
Stichting WIJeindhoven is a governmental organization with 450 employees dedicated to helping residents of Eindhoven who need temporary support to regain and maintain control over their lives. The foundation oversees responsibilities across four key laws: the WMO (Social Support Act), the Participation Act, the Debt Services Act, and Youth Assistance. Their work is directly influenced by continuously evolving legislation, requiring flexible systems to meet these dynamic demands efficiently.
"With the old system we were not flexible enough to be able to move along with it. We couldn't adapt quickly enough and the system was also very expensive''.— Rene Frederik
The Challenges
In 2019, WIJeindhoven recognized the limitations of its existing control system, which was unable to adapt to the rapid pace of legal and regulatory changes. This system, deemed business-critical, supported 18,000 active support plans and processed 100–150 daily notifications. However, it lacked the flexibility to scale and adapt to changing requirements, and the high cost of traditional custom development was not a feasible solution. WIJeindhoven needed a more agile, cost-effective approach to sustain its operations and fulfill its mission.
The Solution
WIJeindhoven partnered with WEM No-Code to develop a fully customized control system tailored to their specific needs. Built in under seven months, the new application provided the flexibility to handle ongoing legislative changes while managing critical business processes such as real-time handling of notifications and the maintenance of active support plans. The no-code platform also empowered WIJeindhoven to independently make updates and rapidly implement new concepts, ensuring adaptability without the high costs associated with traditional development.
The Positive Business Impacts
- Cost Efficiency: Delivered a custom solution within budget without compromising quality.
- Rapid Development: Built and deployed the application in less than seven months.
- Flexibility: Allowed the foundation to independently adapt the system to new laws and regulations.
- Operational Continuity: Ensured seamless management of business-critical processes, including notifications and active support plans.
- Scalability: Positioned WIJeindhoven for long-term success by enabling quick implementation of new concepts.
