Wonderwoods - a green oasis in the centre of the city of Utrecht. Orion Beton, a leading Dutch precast concrete manufacturer based in Enschede, is playing a crucial role in the construction of the 31-storey Boeri Tower and 22-storey MVSA Tower.

With around 50 employees and a digitally controlled and modern production facility, Orion Beton is supplying wide slab floors with shear force reinforcement for this monumental project, crucial to the structural integrity and design specifications of these iconic towers.

By digitally planning and controlling the entire production process with our software solution erpbos  and ebos, Orion is able to realise the project successfully and efficiently with maximum precision and transparency.

Orion has comprehensively implemented digitization and Building Information Modelling (BIM) across the entire project lifecycle of the Wonderwoods towers, from quotation and design to planning, production and construction. The entire process is seamlessly integrated into the industry-specific ERP system erpbos®, in which quotation preparation, production planning, delivery planning and invoicing take place. Production management is then carried out in ebos®, which supplies production staff with real-time data.
