KEMPER has been working successfully with the crossbase software solution for many years. Projects to further optimize the application and make even better use of it are constantly arising. In this case, the crossbase API interface was implemented at KEMPER.
KEMPER was using an XML interface based on BMECat to transfer product information from the crossbase PIM to the website and the online catalog it contains. As part of a redesign, the online agency TWT was commissioned to design and implement the new website. It was decided to replace the old BMECat interface with crossbase's API interface.
The FirstSpirit content management system (CMS) used by KEMPER is connected via crossbase's REST API services. All relevant product information is managed in the crossbase PIM and DAM, and transmitted to the CMS in a scheduled manner.
In the online catalog, product information is extracted from the crossbase database:
For texts, KEMPER uses the option of text generation, e.g. for product description texts. These are broken down into individual document modules, which can then be used for different products. This minimizes translation work, as text elements only need to be translated once.
Country management is carried out via crossbase's Channel Output Management (COM). Assortments and price lists are generated according to market and country.
KEMPER is a global market leader in the fields of building technology, casting technology and rolled products. The central company headquarters and production site in Olpe is supported by sales offices in Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Denmark, the United Kingdom, the United States, China and Singapore.
The core business is expanded by affiliated subsidiaries. In the area of rolled products, this is Profiltech Stufenbandprofile GmbH in Keltern, which manufactures high-precision profiled strips. The planning expertise in building technology is rounded off by Dendrit Haustechnik-Software GmbH in Dülmen.
