Case study: Società Dolce
The project has helped the cooperative Società Dolce with the digital transformation of their customer base as well as that of their entire services/contracts signing process.
In addition to the design and development of the customer sector, the entire childhood sector, which manages services for children aged 0 to 14, was also involved in the transformation project.
Company sector: educational and social-welfare services
Company size: 90 million €

Period: from 2020 to present
Società Dolce, a social cooperative founded in Bologna in 1988 who operate in the field of educational and social-welfare services in collaboration with administrations, local institutions and private companies.
We have been collaborating with the Synextya team since 2020 and right from the very beginning they have proven themselves to be very competent and professional.
We were followed up and guided throughout the digital transformation process, at first in the project sharing phase, as well as subsequently throughout an in-depth analysis to define our objectives and strategy.
We have now implemented a well thought out technological development project that has brought significant improvements to the company.
It all began from the need to digitally innovate our childhood sector, but the project has evolved over time and thanks to their technical and consulting support we have been able to involve and optimize more and more aspects of our business.

The objective identified by the IT department was to digitize the cooperative’s database and to streamline miscellaneous and complex management processes for the activation of services and contracts.

– Centralization of the database and customer data of Società Dolce.
– Development of a new management system for nurseries and related services.

Focus:
With the involvement of one of our project managers as well as that of a technical manager, we managed to draft a complete and detailed project regarding the identity provider of Società Dolce and the new kindergarten management system.
In this phase it was considered necessary to involve all those considered by the client as being key elements, corresponding to the various decision-making areas such as IIT, Administration, Marketing and Legal.
The objective of this phase of the project was to define in detail the timing, costs and methods of implementation of the subsequent phases.

During the analysis, the need emerged to structure a main Portal (currently dedicated to the Childhood sphere but designed with a future perspective in mind to potentially accommodate the entire overview of Società Dolce Services) for the centralized management of registrations, contracts and customer records.
A single authentication system with OAuth 2.0 protocol was thus established as an identity provider of Società Dolce in order to give the user a unique digital identity, linked to the Società Dolce sphere, with which they would be able to request access to all available services.
Any user who registers on the Portal is able to use it as if it were a reserved area where they can view information about their active services, contracts, invoices, news and documents.

After an in-depth analysis of all roles and functionalities that gravitate around the Management of the Childhood sector, we identified the need to design 3 different macro-tools, all interconnected and shaped according to requirement, which proved to be useful for the fulfillment of all the management functions of the Childhood sector.:
