Costly
Custom development inside standard systems is expensive to build, to maintain and to support — and the bill returns with every upgrade.
Software for your business
Get your business in
acceleration mode
Standard ERP never covers 100% of your business. We build the apps that close that gap — customer-specific, integrated with your ERP — accelerating your processes in weeks, not years.
- 50+ years Of combined experience in IT & business processes
- 1–3 days From intake to a shared problem definition
- 1–2 weeks To a working, demonstrable prototype
- 4–6 weeks To go live with your first productive release
Who we are
A small, focused team that speaks business, uses IT
Accelerate2Value is a small, customer-focused company. On the back of 50+ years of experience in software development and in the analysis and optimisation of business processes, we help our clients develop, deliver and support high-value solutions — solutions that fix a specific problem and support the business-critical processes standard ERP leaves uncovered.
There are countless companies that build IT solutions. So why start our own? Because we believe the business process should be both the starting point and the end point of a solution — enabled by powerful IT technology. IT is a powerful means, never the goal. That's why we talk with your people in business language, about their processes, their frustrations and their potential to improve the value they deliver to customers.
Vision & mission
The gap between your process and your system
Every company records its core processes in its ERP, finance, logistics and CRM systems. They are your backbone, but they never cover the company-specific processes completely. And those are exactly the processes that decide how much value you deliver to your customers.
Inflexible
Hard-wired customisation resists change. When the business shifts, the workaround becomes the constraint.
Hard to scale
Self-built spreadsheets work in a limited context. Add people, departments and locations and it starts to break.
Dependent on individuals
Business-critical knowledge lives in the heads of one or two people — and in spreadsheets only they understand.
Our mission
Turn workarounds into working software
Accelerate2Value builds sharply targeted, customer-specific solutions for the processes your standard systems leave uncovered — replacing the custom ERP code and the shared spreadsheets with something properly built, integrated and supported.
- Optimal support for your key processes
- Scalable in users and in data volume
- Integrated with the ERP systems you already run
- Genuinely easy to use — so people actually use it
What it delivers
Value for business & value for IT
For the business
- Optimise business-critical processes so the organisation can focus fully on delivering value to its customers
- Capture process-critical knowledge in a tool instead of in someone's head
- Reduce errors and automate the manual steps
- Monitor processes at transaction and process level
- Give decision makers visible alternatives and scenario impact
For IT
- Scalable, robust applications coupled to your existing landscape
- Replace and prevent complex customisation in standard software
- Hosted by us, by you, in the cloud or on prem
- One single version of the truth
- Retire the Excel files where business-critical data is kept by hand
Our approach
From problem to working solution, in three steps
Define the core of the problem in an extremely short time, then deliver applications that work. Interaction with your key users is what makes it possible.
-
1
Intake 1–3 days
We map the problem and its full business & IT context, agree where you want to end up, and fix the scope of the prototype: what, when, cost.
-
2
Project 3–6 months
Three stages, with your key users involved from the very first prototype.
-
Build prototype 1–2 weeks
Proves we understood the problem and aligns every stakeholder. Must-haves and the necessary integrations are settled here.
-
Implementation 4–6 weeks
Weekly development sprints, deployed early so users can test it long before go-live. Ends with the first productive release.
-
Embedding 2–3 months
Two-weekly sprints add what the business asks for, with training and change management running alongside.
-
-
3
Running Continuous
We maintain, monitor and support the application, adding improvements and new features whenever they are needed.
Architecture
Customer apps, built on three layers
We deliver customer apps: a standardised platform and a proven set of components that we use as the base for customer-specific applications. Standard where it can be, specific where it has to be.
-
Frontend & GUI 100% customer-specific
The end-user environment, where all the interaction happens. Built around your way of working — precisely the features your users need and none of the ballast that only confuses them. The result: a very short learning curve and a tool people are happy to open.
-
Application engine Standard + add-ons
The layer underneath. Generic functionality reusable across customer apps, plus add-ons that hold your specific logic — optimisation algorithms, business rules, validations.
-
Technical platform Fully standardised
Storage, database, user authentication and hosting. Robust, scalable and monitored — so large data volumes and many concurrent users stay fast.
Built with AI-assisted engineering
We design, build and test with the latest AI-assisted development tooling. It is a large part of why a small team can put a working solution in your hands in weeks rather than months — and it applies to our own code and specifications, not to your data. Your business data lives only in your solution, on the platform you choose.
Core values
What our solutions stand for
Solve the core issue
No sticking plasters or workarounds. Fixing the core sometimes means changing the way of working — usually a simplification, always with training and change management alongside.
Keep It Super Simple
Exactly the features the user needs to support the process closely, and no superfluous ballast that only confuses.
The user is king
A beautiful tool nobody uses is worthless. Users are involved intensively from the prototype onwards — not after go-live.
Single version of the truth
Data is maintained centrally and read live from connected systems, linked into one coherent overview — no navigating five screens, no copy-paste between environments.
Robust, scalable, high performance
Our solutions run on a robust and scalable technical platform — large data volumes and many concurrent users, with performance that holds up.
Maintained & supported
Tooling that carries business-critical processes deserves proper care. We deliver as software-as-a-service by default, monitor availability and keep it up to date.
About us
Founded on decades of hands-on experience
Accelerate2Value was founded in 2026 by two professionals who have spent their careers on both sides of the problem — building the software, and analysing and optimising the business processes it supports. They stay involved from the first analysis through to support.
Nanne Sluis
Co-founder & owner
Nanne has always been intrigued by the power of IT and learned programming from a very young age. To keep a wider perspective he studied Industrial Engineering & Management Science at TU Eindhoven. After that, Nanne worked as a supply chain consultant for several years. In 2009 he joined Richard at the software company behind an advanced supply chain analytics solution for SAP. He worked there in several roles and gained a deep understanding of SAP and ERP in general. Since 2017 he has worked as an independent BI consultant, building many data models and cloud applications supporting the business.
Richard den Ouden
Co-founder & owner
Richard has supported 100+ midsized and large enterprises around the world improving their SAP ERP usage, and optimising their end-to-end supply chain processes. After studying Mechanical Engineering at TU Delft, Richard joined a start-up software company in Rotterdam in 1997 and stood at the cradle of an advanced supply chain analytics solution for SAP users — as developer, product manager, consultant, project manager and in marketing & sales. Since 2021 an independent consultant optimising end-to-end supply chain processes, with deep expertise in SAP ERP (S/4HANA and ECC), supply chain planning & execution and operational BI.
Where we've worked
Over the past 25 years we have worked with large multinationals and mid-sized organisations across:
Discrete manufacturing & high-tech
Process industry
Food & pharma
Wholesale & retail
Our focus is always on enabling users: optimising the core processes that deliver value to your customers, and making the context processes ruthlessly efficient.
