IT company Easi announces the strategic acquisition of Tailorfit, a Belgian ERP solution specialized in the fashion industry. Easi has acquired the intellectual property rights to this solution. This acquisition, effective since September 2024, is a key step in the expansion of Easi's software offering.
The acquisition of Tailorfit was closed on August 9 and fits seamlessly with Easi's core business of maintaining, selling and optimizing software. Specializing in the needs of the fashion industry, Tailorfit is now hosted on Cloud2be, a cloud infrastructure owned by Easi. “We already have the operational teams in place to support this technology. It is therefore a logical step for us,” explains Raf Hernalsteen, Business Unit Director at Easi.
Best-of-breed
Easi sees great potential in expanding its existing software offerings through this acquisition. "Tailorfit offers very interesting additions to our own Adfinity software, as it includes very advanced rbill of material’ (List of all supplies needed to produce an item) functionalities. For example, the traceability of each individual component throughout its life cycle is built into the application by default”, adds Raf Hernalsteen. “In addition, the software includes a robust and detailed cost calculation tool that can be considered one of the best in its class. These features make Tailorfit a valuable addition to our current offering.”
Offering total package
Easi's top priority is to ensure continuity for its existing clients. “The software was included in our portfolio and will continue to be developed according to our standards”, confirms co-Ceo Thomas Van Eeckhout. “In the coming months, we will be working on a framework to sign new agreements from January 2025. Since 75% of Tailorfit customers are already part of the Easi ecosystem, we expect a smooth transition”, adds Thomas Van Eeckhout.
In the medium term, Easi plans to deploy the software in various sectors, including outside the fashion industry. “Provided that we make the necessary adjustments, we will be able to deploy Tailorfit in all sectors where item development and production are crucial. In conjunction with our Adfinity software, this will enable us to provide to offer a total package in these sectors”, concludes co-ceo Thomas Van Eeckhout.
