Case study · In-vitro diagnostics · Full lot & expiry traceability

From fragmented systems to full traceability. How B.S.N. digitalised in-vitro diagnostics on a single Odoo ERP.

Sales on one system. Kit production on another. Lots and expiry dates tracked by hand — in a market where documentary precision isn't optional.

Koratyn unified finance, logistics and documentation into a single Odoo Enterprise environment — built around how B.S.N. actually works.

No commitment. No cost. We'll tell you honestly if we can help.

The Company

Who is B.S.N. Srl

Since 1994, B.S.N. Srl has been an Italian reference point in the distribution of products for specialist diagnostics and nuclear medicine. Through its Research & Development division, the company combines technology, expertise and service to supply advanced diagnostic kits to clinical analysis laboratories.

But as the business grew, delivering that precision across sales, production and finance meant coordinating systems that no longer spoke to each other.

The Problem

Growth turned digital fragmentation into a daily cost.

Operating in in-vitro diagnostics and medical devices means rigorous standards and flawless documentary precision — every lot, every kit, every expiry date has to be accounted for.

B.S.N.'s strong growth exposed the limits of a fragmented setup: the commercial division and the kit production department didn't share data, creating information silos that slowed order fulfilment and administrative control.

The more the business grew, the harder traceability and control became.

In a regulated market, a gap between what production knows and what sales sees isn't an inconvenience — it's a risk.

Here's what that looked like in practice.

Disconnect between production and sales

The commercial division and the kit production department worked in separate systems, with no shared data layer between them.

Complex kit and lot traceability

Tracking lots, diagnostic kits and expiry dates across systems was manual, slow and exposed to error.

Delays on recurring contracts

Recurring contracts and blanket orders were managed by hand, slowing administration and reliable reporting.

No pitch. Just an honest conversation about your operations.

There was a better way to run a regulated operation.

The Solution

One ERP. Every process. Full traceability, end to end.

A centralised Odoo environment for around 30 users — configured around how a biomedical distributor actually works.

B.S.N. didn't need another tool to bolt on. They needed a single environment where finance, sales and logistics finally shared the same data — with traceability built in, not added later.

That's exactly what Koratyn built.

Native accounting & financial integration

Bank synchronisation, automated journals and real-time reporting — administrative and banking work with no manual re-entry.

Sales, contracts & recurring workflows

Contracts, blanket orders and automated invoicing via Subscriptions — faster fulfilment for clinical analysis laboratories.

Full traceability of kits & logistics

Precise warehouse control, accurate stock valuation and rigorous lot and expiry traceability, from purchase to delivery.

Teams that adopted the system from day one

Guided adoption — targeted training so every department used the ERP from go-live.

The result: finance, sales and logistics finally working from the same data.

The Approach

How we made it work — and kept it working.

Because implementation is only half the job.

We start with your real operations.

We intervene where the friction actually is.

We measure the impact before moving on.

  1. 01

    Discovery & mapping

    We audit your current systems, identify every integration gap, and map the processes that are actually causing delays.

    → What changes: you get a clear picture of where time and money are being lost before we touch a single system.

  2. 02

    Iterative sprints

    We don't flip a switch. We work in focused sprints — small, visible wins that build team confidence before full go-live.

    → What changes: every department sees results early. No big-bang switch. No disruption. No productivity loss.

  3. 03

    Go-live with zero downtime

    The transition happens while your business keeps running. On-the-job training is built into the process, not added after.

    → What changes: teams adopt the new system from day one — because they helped shape it during the sprints.

  4. 04

    Continuous optimisation

    The project doesn't end at go-live. We stay involved — adding automations, dashboards and refinements as the business evolves.

    → What changes: you get an ERP that grows with the company, not one that needs replacing every time the business changes.

This is what a real implementation looks like. Not a demo. Not a pilot. A business transformed.

The Results

Measured after go-live.

Before and after.

The same company. A completely different operation.

"In in-vitro diagnostics, a gap between what production knows and what sales sees isn't an inconvenience — it's a risk. Since Koratyn unified everything on a single ERP, every lot, kit and expiry date is traceable end to end, and our teams finally read from the same data. Fulfilment and month-end run calmer than they have in years."
