Grupo Éxito Providers Portal

The Challenge

The previous provider portal had served the organization well for many years, but as Grupo Éxito’s needs evolved, so did the expectations for performance, usability, and integration. Users increasingly needed faster access to tools and information, while internal teams required more flexibility to manage content and workflows. As the business continued to grow, it became clear that the platform needed a modern foundation — one that could scale, integrate smoothly with systems like SAP and OKS, and support ongoing innovation.

Grupo Éxito set out to create a solution that could meet today’s demands and adapt to tomorrow’s opportunities.

The Solution

The new portal was built with a decoupled architecture: Drupal serves as the robust backend, while Next.js powers a fast, modern user interface. This setup allows the portal to display data from OKS using embedded views, while Drupal handles business rules, content, and integration with SAP in the background.

By prioritizing security, availability, and user experience, the new platform not only improved performance — it transformed how Grupo Éxito collaborates with its provider network.

What’s New and What Matters

• Faster Access to Information. Providers can now find what they need in fewer clicks, with a clean interface and intuitive navigation.
• Real-Time Integration with Business Systems. Data from SAP and OKS is seamlessly integrated, giving users up-to-date information without the lag.
• Built for Growth. The platform can scale with increasing content and traffic, ensuring stability over time.
• Freedom for Content Editors. Teams can manage and update content easily — no developers required.
• Enterprise-Grade Security. Strong security protocols protect business data and ensure uptime.
• Rooted in the Open Web. By choosing open source, Grupo Éxito supports transparency, innovation, and long-term value.

Beyond the Platform

This project isn’t just about technology. It’s about creating a better, more human experience — one that helps people do their jobs more effectively, reduces friction, and opens the door to future improvements.

For providers, that means faster answers and smoother interactions. For internal teams, it means more control and less reliance on technical resources. And for the business, it’s a foundation that’s ready for whatever comes next.

Grupo Éxito’s Providers Portal shows what’s possible when you combine the right technology with a clear vision for the future — all while embracing the values of the open web.
