Initial Challenge

Before partnering with NoBlue2, Cabify grappled with several operational hurdles. Their reliance on outsourced accounting services created inefficiencies and limited control over their financial processes. This dependency was further strained as Cabify began its rapid international expansion, necessitating a scalable and robust financial system.  

Managing operations across multiple regions posed significant challenges, including a lack of unified processes and consistent data for decision-making. These growing pains underscored the need for an integrated ERP solution to support their ambitious growth trajectory. 

Solution

Understanding Cabify’s unique challenges, NoBlue2 crafted a tailored implementation plan for NetSuite OneWorld, a cloud-based ERP solution designed to centralise and streamline financial operations. NoBlue2’s expertise ensured a solution aligned with Cabify’s growth objectives while addressing their immediate operational inefficiencies. 

Implementation Details

The transition to NetSuite OneWorld was executed with meticulous attention to detail. NoBlue2’s team worked closely with Cabify to ensure minimal disruption to daily operations. Key components of the implementation included: 

  • Internalising Accounting Functions: Bringing financial management in-house to reduce dependency on external providers.

  • Real-Time Data Access: Providing leadership with instantaneous insights to support informed decision-making. 
  • Scalable Framework: A flexible system designed to adapt seamlessly to Cabify’s international expansion and operational complexities. 

NoBlue2 ensured that Cabify’s teams were equipped to adopt the new system effectively, providing training and ongoing support to facilitate a smooth transition.

The scalable system facilitated Cabify’s transition from a promising startup to a multinational enterprise, ensuring consistent processes and control across its global operations. Additionally, the integration of international subsidiaries was streamlined, promoting operational uniformity and efficiency.
