Salesianos Foundation
Implementation of
Cegid Primavera
The Salesianos Foundation is an institution with a strong national presence, comprising 10 educational establishments and operating units spread across different regions of the country.
Its mission combines education, evangelization and vocational training, supported by complementary areas such as the publishing of school and religious content and centralized administrative management.
With such a diverse ecosystem, the Foundation faced the challenge of unifying operations and technology systems to ensure effective, integrated management oriented toward the digital future.

The Challenge
With the institution’s transformation into a foundation, the need arose to create a single management model across all establishments.
Until then, each unit operated independently, with its own systems and distinct information flows — which made data consolidation and process standardization difficult.
The main challenges identified included:
-
Decentralized systems – each establishment used different management tools and methods.
-
Lack of integration between departments – sales, invoicing and shipping operated redundantly, creating inefficiencies.
-
Complex central management – the transition to a foundation required consolidated reporting and global visibility of operations.
-
Optimizing the digital experience – the Salesianos Editora online store needed greater fluidity between orders, invoicing and shipping to improve the shopping experience.
The Solution: Systems Integration and Digitalization
The partnership between the Salesianos Foundation and INCENTEA began more than 20 years ago, with the implementation of Primavera and Cegid solutions, which would become pillars of the institution’s management.
The most recent phase of collaboration focused on the digitalization and integration of critical systems, notably the modernization of the Salesianos Editora online store.
This integration, developed by inCentea, created autonomy between departments, eliminating redundancies and speeding up customer response.
Key highlights of the solution:
-
Integration between ERP systems and online platforms, ensuring automatic communication between sales, invoicing and shipping.
-
Automation of repetitive processes, reducing time and human error.
-
Unified information flows, supported by a scalable digital infrastructure.
-
Continuous technology support, with inCentea adapting solutions to the client’s new needs.
”The implementation of the new online store allowed us to work autonomously across the sales, invoicing and shipping departments, eliminating redundancies and increasing efficiency.
