Vertical:

B2B Food Distribution

Goal:

Strengthen rigor and visibility in quality management at scale. Internal audits, ISO compliance, on-site self-checks, GDPR, and strategic committee follow-ups.

Results

  • 250+ audits conducted across 9 business units in 1 year
  • Non-conformities tracked and resolved via a unified action plan
  • 9 business units audited through a single platform

🧭 Contexte

Transgourmet is a major player in B2B food distribution, with a strong commitment to operational excellence and quality.

Before Kostango, quality management relied on scattered Excel files, paper audits, and manual follow-ups — impossible to get a clear, structured, and reliable nationwide view.

What started as a need to replace an unmanageable Excel audit file quickly turned into a vision for a fully centralized, flexible, and scalable quality system covering audits, self-checks, ISO compliance, GDPR, non-conformity tracking, and strategic committee management — all in one customizable platform.

❗Challenges

The old Excel system quickly reached its limits:

  • Files multiplied and circulated uncontrolled
  • User permissions were hard to manage
  • Teams found the interface discouraging
  • No clear traceability of non-conformities or action plans

Result: few consolidated indicators, poor planning, and low adoption. Only ~50 audits were completed per year, far below needs. Continuous improvement was blocked.

🛠️ Solution

With Kostango, Transgourmet rebuilt quality management on solid, digital foundations:

  • Centralized annual audit planning by site
  • Custom, easy-to-complete audit forms on the field
  • Integrated self-checks across subsidiaries (safety, satisfaction, etc.)
  • Structured non-conformity follow-up with history and dashboards
  • Dynamic dashboards consolidating data by business unit, site, or subsidiary
  • GDPR-compliant tracking built-in
  • Strategic committee management (meetings, action plans, decisions)

Result: rapid adoption on the field, no heavy training, and immediate performance gains.

✅ Résultats obtenus

In just one year:

  • 🧮 250+ audits conducted across 9 business units
  • 🚀 5x increase in non-conformity closure rate
  • 🤝 Stronger subsidiary engagement via self-checks
  • 🔐 GDPR compliance structured and monitored
  • 🎯 Enhanced quality management for ISO 9001 and other standards

Transgourmet’s journey with Kostango shows how starting simple, digital, and centralized can quickly scale into a fully connected quality ecosystem — progressive, fast, and effective.

“Kostango enabled us to move from Excel to a real business platform. Result: 250+ audits completed this year, greater visibility, stronger rigor… and full adoption by the field teams.”

🔄 Next Steps & Outlook

Transgourmet originally started with a single use case: replacing an obsolete Excel file used for internal audits.
It was meant to be a very targeted first step.

But the teams quickly saw further.

Thanks to Kostango’s agility, new use cases were naturally added: on-site self-checks, incident reporting, GDPR compliance…
Today, they already manage six operational processes within the same platform — a scenario impossible with their previous tools.

And this is only the beginning.

By progressively discovering Kostango’s horizontal capabilities, Transgourmet realized its broader potential: not only digitizing quality processes, but structuring the entire organization around a shared, modular, and collaborative framework.

Upcoming milestones

  • Continue deployment across all entities
  • Connect Kostango more deeply with existing IT systems
  • Integrate new strategic use cases (safety, compliance, cross-functional governance)
