PostNL: 109 apps and the end of a 3-year backlog
The Dutch postal and courier giant delivered 109 enterprise apps on Mendix in 4 years and cut its IT backlog from 3 years to 3 months, handling 10M transactions a day.
The challenge
With 10 million transactions a day, PostNL was drowning in a multi-year IT backlog. The pace of change couldn’t keep up with operations, and every new process waited in line for years.
What Mendix delivered
PostNL bet on an in-house Mendix team and delivered 109 enterprise apps in 4 years. The backlog shrank from 3 years to 3 months, and new solutions are built iteratively on live operational data.
