Gold DIA Winner - Service Category

From weeks of waiting to certainty in five minutes

For a long time, arranging childcare was a tedious, time-consuming process involving endless waiting lists, phone calls, mountains of paperwork, and weeks of uncertainty. That is now a thing of the past. The platform developed by Beyonder and Partou gives parents instant peace of mind - 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It offers real-time availability across more than 753 locations, instant cost transparency, and a single, seamless user journey from registration to the first payment. A game-changer for over 73,000 children and their parents.

Technical excellence behind a frictionless experience

Behind those seemingly simple five minutes lies a highly complex technological solution. The platform calculates real-time availability across hundreds of locations, processes data for tens of thousands of children using a smart algorithm, and fully automates waiting list management and notifications. From sign-up to contract signing and the initial payment: everything happens in one fluid workflow.

The impact is felt across the entire organization. Planners spend significantly less time on manual work, billing accuracy has improved, and occupancy rates are optimized with clear insights per location. Ultimately, this frees up staff to focus on what matters most: personal contact with families.

Digital acceleration in action

This is the epitome of Digital Acceleration: technology not for technology's sake, but smart solutions that genuinely improve people's lives. As the jury report beautifully put it: "There are only winners here: parents, Partou, and employees." Read the full jury report here.
