Three questions your team should be able to answer

What is approved?

Make the valid version and its approval process clear.

What is available?

Include stock, variants and replenishment in planning.

Who may order?

Define catalogues and permissions for teams and locations.

Platforms and their role

Materials, stock and budget need a shared analysis. Power BI supports the agreed reports, with views defined by your needs.

The gap

The approved version and available stock need to match.

A new brochure may be approved while the previous edition remains in storage. MRM connects version decisions, permissions and physical stock: who may order which edition, when does it apply and what happens to remaining quantities?

Planning stays connected to fulfilment.

Atlas gives clients access to products, stock, campaigns and orders. Nexus supports operational processing. We agree the views and handovers needed for your project.

Example workflow

The new brochure is approved. Which edition will ship?

A new print version is available while the previous edition remains in stock. The asset, product and physical inventory must match. Marketing decides whether the remainder can be used, blocked or assigned separately before the new version appears in the ordering portal.

    Scope of service

    Six functions, one system, no break in the data chain.

    The foundation is the PROWERB MEP — a cloud-based marketing execution platform with 18 customizable modules. Behind it, PROWERB CORE operates with ERP, WMS and a process engine. Both are in-house built, both in daily use for more than 50 active customer online shops.

    01Item lifecycleNew setup, renaming and deactivation run via standard request processes. Every change takes effect in the shop and warehouse system simultaneously — there is only one data state.
    02Real-time inventory managementRFID-capable, smooth booking in ERP and eWMS. Whoever orders in the portal sees what's actually on the shelf — not what was counted three weeks ago.
    03Print-data approval →Review loops with documented approval before an order goes into production. Version states remain traceable.
    04Ordering portalCustomer-specific shop with order intake, confirmation, invoice and credit-note processing — for internal ordering staff, branch offices or field sales.
    05Budget control & reportingThe Operations Cockpit delivers Power BI live reports, inventory trends, budget control and track & trace — available around the clock, integrable into your systems.
    06Multi-brand operationThe MEP maps multi-brand strategies: separate ranges, separate budgets, one operation behind them.
    Process

    Decide approval, remaining stock and ordering.

    Catalogue maintenance and artwork checks have their own detail pages. Here the key decision concerns the valid version and the transition between editions.

    1. 01

      Approve the version

      Record the owner, version and effective date.

    2. 02

      Decide remaining stock

      Block, use up or withdraw the old edition under the agreed approval.

    3. 03

      Check ordering

      Authorised users receive the intended edition; discrepancies remain traceable.

    Integration

    The MEP doesn't replace your systems. It connects them.

    The platform is cloud-based and, on request, runs stand-alone as SaaS. In practice it docks into what already exists — from the existing online shop to the group ERP. What the integration looks like is decided by the inventory process, not the system diagram.

    01Online shop integrationExisting shop solutions stay in use; the MEP takes over inventory, handling and reporting behind them.
    02ERP & WMSIntegration via interfaces — order, article and inventory data stay in sync.
    03File-based ordersWhere no interface is wanted: exchange of order files via SFTP, proven in ongoing operations.
    04Direct import from campaign toolsOrders from sweepstakes apps or campaign tools flow via direct import into processing.
    References

    Article maintenance isn't a side job for us. It's the mandate.

    The relationship with Renault began in 1996. Today, PROWERB manages the item lifecycle for Renault and Dacia: new setups, renamings and deactivations via standard request processes, plus order and invoice processing in the promotional-products shop.

    For Telefónica O2, print-data approvals with review loops, master-data maintenance and periodic reporting have been part of ongoing operations since 2011. Neither is a project — both are ongoing operations, documented year after year, case after case.

    FAQ

    Frequently asked questions about marketing resource management.

    What is marketing resource management (MRM)?

    MRM refers to the centralized planning, management and control of all marketing resources — from articles and print data to inventory and budgets. At PROWERB, MRM also includes the physical side: warehousing, kitting & assembly and dispatch of the material.

    How does MRM differ from a DAM or a promotional-products portal?

    A DAM manages digital assets, a promotional-products portal takes orders. MRM connects both with inventory management, budget control and reporting into one continuous process — from article setup to deactivation.

    Do we have to replace our existing systems?

    No. The PROWERB MEP is cloud-based and docks into existing online shops, ERP and WMS systems. On request, it runs stand-alone as SaaS.

    How long does the rollout take?

    For a larger fulfilment takeover, introduction follows seven phases (0–6). Around 14 weeks is a planning guideline once master data, contracts, inventory transfer, interfaces and approvals are settled. A digital build or smaller scope receives its own schedule.

    Does this work for multiple brands?

    Yes. The MEP maps multi-brand strategies — separate ranges and budgets, one operation behind them. The relationship with Renault began in 1996; today, PROWERB manages item maintenance for Renault and Dacia.

    Who dispatches the material?

    PROWERB itself. Behind the portal are the warehouses in Kleve; the group has more than 55,000 pallet spaces; more than 2 million shipments leave the company each year, at a service level above 99 percent.
