A 20k-partner B2B platform, scaled and compliant
Flexinet — the B2B incentive platform 20,000+ Autonet partners run every day.
The situation
Autonet is one of Romania's largest auto-parts distributors. Founded 1996, with two regional distribution centers, sixty warehouses, and a strong presence on the Hungarian market. Flexinet is their B2B incentive platform, the system 20,000+ partners rely on every day. Regulatory compliance was tightening, competitive pressure was mounting, the platform needed more scale and configurability, and priorities had to align across departments running on different timelines. The conversation opened on a 2-page brief and a 3-month scope; it grew into a year of work.
“We chose to work with binhatch because we needed a technology partner with solid expertise, capable of delivering concrete results while also anticipating the strategic direction of our business. Stability and scalability of the delivered solutions were essential criteria, given our platform's integration with the central ERP system. These objectives were achieved thanks to the professionalism and competence of the binhatch team.”
What we did
- Brought Flexinet to full compliance with the applicable legal and industry standards. Regulatory and cybersecurity exposure closed.
- Optimized the architecture for stability, scale, and long-term maintainability.
- Built a configurable foundation so marketing can adjust campaigns and incentives without engineering in the loop.
- Facilitated alignment across departments with different priorities. A shared roadmap that survived the weekly negotiation.
- Contributed strategic input on feature viability and long-term value. Autonet retained final decision-making power.
The outcome
- Full adherence with all legal and security regulations. Compliance and cybersecurity risk closed.
- Platform carries a high daily transaction load with ease.
- Marketing tunes incentive campaigns without going through engineering. A step-change in organizational flexibility.
- Usability materially improved for partners across the board.
Stack
This was the kind of engagement that looks like “a platform upgrade” on paper and turns out to be as much an organizational job as a technical one. High-stakes software engineering with the multi-stakeholder coordination built in. The value wasn’t in writing more code. It was in the thousand small trade-offs that turn a complex platform into one the business can operate at speed.
