Introduction
Discac, one of the top five kitchen and bathroom manufacturers in France, is offering resellers the HomeByMe space planning and configuration solution to support them in designing and visualizing kitchens, as well as making and managing sales. The solution will be launched for retailers and independent dealers in January 2023.
Company Background
Discac, a family-owned company founded in 1989, has modernized its offering and renewed its machinery in 2021 as part of its digitalization strategy. This consumer-friendly solution enables Discac to simplify the kitchen design process and make it accessible to both specialists and general home retailers.
HomeByMe Solution
HomeByMe's set of solutions, developed by the 3D world leader Dassault Systèmes, enables users with no prior training to create, design and visualize kitchens. Powerful software then collects all the design elements, completes the kitchen design, establishes a cost in real-time, edits purchase orders, and follows up with sales or enables after-sales actions.
Benefits for Dealers
"As of January 2023, the kitchen design stage will no longer be an obstacle to sales for Discac dealers. The HomeByMe solution from Dassault Systèmes has the advantages for kitchen designers as well as consumers with no prior experience: it is loaded with advanced features while being easy to use. Half of our customers are not specialists, and HomeByMe will make their work much easier," says Romain Langagne, Sales Director, Discac. "This 'full-web' solution meets a market need – design accessible to the professional or the consumer."
Users just need a browser and internet connection to design, customize, visualize, and make estimates with the HomeByMe solution. With Discac's rollout, the service is now available to B2C retailers of any size.
Comprehensive Retailer Solution
With HomeByMe, Dassault Systèmes offers the only comprehensive solution for retailers and resellers that covers the entire buying process for both consumers and vendors. From the inspiration phase to the finalization of the sale, and even after-sales service, this 100% online solution enables a web-to-store or web-to-web journey at the distributor's choice. Consumers can start creating their kitchen project from home and finish it in-store or online. Sales staff can access all components of the project at any time to modify or complete it or simply finalize the sale.
Accessibility and Efficiency
"HomeByMe is not reserved for large retailers. This omnichannel solution requires nothing more than an internet connection to operate. Our solution is easy to use, intuitive, and 100% cloud-based, avoiding heavy deployment and costly installations. Our business expertise has enabled us to integrate all the specific business rules for kitchens, greatly simplifying the design process for both vendors and consumers," said Vincent Picou, CEO of 3DVIA at Dassault Systèmes.
