About Bellota

Bellota is a company belonging to the global group Venanpri, specializing in the design, manufacture, and commercialization of hand tools, as well as in the development and supply of spare parts and solutions for agricultural machinery.

With an international presence and more than 400 professionals in Spain, Bellota operates in demanding environments, particularly in production areas where the management of labor incidents has a direct impact on business processes.

 

Initial situation

In 2024, Bellota began an analysis process to evolve its payroll and personnel administration management model, driven by the need to replace its existing solution, scheduled for discontinuation in December 2025.

This context made it necessary to move toward a more integrated model that would improve payroll calculation reliability, reduce manual processes, and provide a more structured view of workforce information.

 

Project objectives

The project was designed with a set of clear objectives:

  • Implement a unified payroll and personnel administration solution
  • Integrate time management in the production environment with the payroll system
  • Ensure reliability and traceability of payroll calculations
  • Centralize workforce information across all entities
  • Provide structured data for absenteeism analysis

Solution

Implemented solution

After evaluating different market alternatives, Bellota selected the iberPer solution from Ayesa Digital.

The implemented solution consists of the following components:

1.- iberPer Payroll and Personnel Administration

The main module responsible for:

  • End-to-end payroll cycle management
  • Payroll calculation parameterization tailored to each entity
  • Compliance with current regulations
  • Centralized employee information management

2.- Time Management Module (custom development)

A specific module was developed, tailored to the needs of Bellota’s production environment, enabling:

  • Recording of shop-floor incidents (absences, vacations, bonuses, etc.)
  • Structured capture of operational data
  • Direct integration with the payroll system

This development aligns operational reality with payroll calculation, eliminating intermediate manual processes.

3.- Technology platform on Microsoft Azure

The solution has been deployed in a cloud environment on Azure, providing:

  • Scalability and flexibility
  • High availability
  • Security and compliance
  • Reduced dependency on on-premise infrastructure

 

 

Project execution

The implementation was carried out throughout 2025 by Ayesa Digital’s iberPer consulting team, with extensive experience in people management projects in industrial environments.

The main project phases included:

  • Functional analysis and requirements definition
  • Payroll model configuration
  • Development of the time management module
  • Migration of historical data from the previous solution
  • Training for key users
  • Parallel runs over several months to validate the system

This approach was supported by a high level of involvement, commitment, and collaboration from Bellota’s Personnel and Human Resources team, who worked in coordination with iberPer’s technical team throughout all phases of the project.

The active participation of the team, together with their business knowledge, was key to ensuring proper requirements definition, system validation, and effective adoption of the solution in daily operations.

 

 

Go-live

The system went live in January after successfully completing the validation phases.

Since then, Bellota has been operating with an integrated model in which information generated in production is automatically transferred to the payroll system, enabling more agile and reliable process management.

Benefits

Results achieved

The implementation has enabled Bellota to move toward a more efficient, data-driven management model:

  • Full integration between time management and payroll
  • Reduction of errors associated with manual processes
  • Greater reliability in payroll calculations
  • Centralization of workforce information
  • Improved traceability of incidents
  • Capability for structured absenteeism analysis

 

Added value of the project

Beyond the technological implementation, the project has established a solid foundation for the future evolution of people management at Bellota.

The use of a cloud platform such as Azure facilitates the incorporation of new capabilities, such as advanced analytics or integration with other corporate systems, depending on business needs.

 

Ayesa Digital as a technology partner

In this project, Ayesa Digital contributed:

  • Experience in implementing payroll solutions in complex environments
  • Knowledge of the industrial sector
  • Custom development capabilities
  • A proven methodology in transformation projects

 

Conclusion

The project carried out at Bellota is an example of how integrating operations with people management can improve efficiency, reliability, and analytical capabilities within an organization.

"In 2024, Bellota initiated a review of its payroll and personnel administration management model to align it with the company’s evolution and culture. As a result, it decided to implement a new payroll system designed to improve efficiency, modernize payroll management processes, and provide greater transparency in compensation."
