Nuclos automates bike leasing at BusinessBike
Nuclos is the linchpin that maps all processes in a complex network of relationships on a one-to-one basis
Sauerlach, January 10, 2024 – BusinessBike, a leading company bike leasing provider in Germany with over 40,000 connected employers, offers simple bike leasing, connecting employers, employees, specialist dealers and the self-employed with a real-time portal (www.businessbike.de). The provider uses Nuclos software(www.nuclos.de) to network the parties involved and automate the contract design process throughout. Nuclos serves as a central data hub and transparently maps all processes in the complex network of relationships. Nuclos works in the background and serves as the basis for the web portal application, which can be accessed by lessees, employees and specialist dealers. In addition, interfaces ensure the consistent connection of the lessor and insurance company.
Significant time savings thanks to web-based contract processing
BusinessBike has a dense, Germany-wide network of over 6,000 specialist bicycle dealers. If companies want to provide their employees with leased bikes or if self-employed people want to take advantage of the offer, interested parties can select and order a suitable bike directly from the dealer. In the past, contract management was very time-consuming: Paper forms had to be filled out and sent by post to all parties involved. Nuclos has now fully automated this process since 2019. Employers, employees, dealers and the self-employed can all enter all the necessary data and process the contract via the shared web portal. Whereas this process used to take days, it now only takes a few seconds. This means that the user receives their bike much faster and both dealers and companies save time.
As an open modular ERP system, Nuclos is ideal for this application. A web interface could be easily and flexibly integrated into the software, allowing all parties involved to access the application and the relevant data quickly and conveniently. In addition, Nuclos continuously checks the current status of the contract design and automatically notifies the parties involved of any changes. For example, once all the necessary documents have been submitted, the dealer can react promptly and deliver the bike to the user.
Transparent and consistent mapping of leasing contracts
“The satisfaction of our customers is our top priority – the simpler the processes, the better. We were able to meet this requirement with Nuclos and completely automate and transparently map our leasing contract management. This leads to consistent processes, reduces sources of error and saves valuable time. As a modular system, the software can be used flexibly and offers many options for tailor-made solutions. Thanks to the direct and competent advice from the experts at Novabit, we were able to make perfect use of the customization options offered by the software. The introduction of Nuclos has helped us reach a milestone: the transition to fully digitalized and paperless procurement of company bikes,” says Victoria Mittelbach, Head of Platform Development at BusinessBike.

Novabit’s aim is to establish Nuclos as a standard platform for business software and believes that although processes in companies are fundamentally similar, they differ in detail in successful companies and are constantly changing as companies grow.
While a standard ERP system forces company processes into a corset, a modular ERP system creates a secure framework and makes it possible to customize your own processes.
