About The Client:

The Silicon Valley based distributor of electrical components and automation needed to replace their existing, outdated inventory and sales management software with a cloud based solution that was efficient, robust, and expandable.

The customer employs an on-premises system designed in the 1990s. To increase revenue, the customer requested that we create a new digital solution that included inventory management, purchasing, a sales platform, and an eCommerce website. The client wants to use VelanApps expertise and experience for this project.

Challenges:

  • Create a cloud based custom application capable of handling over 9 million SKUs.
  • Importing 200K SKUs with specifications, quantities, and prices from their current system.
  • Importing an additional 9 million SKUs into their existing database.
  • Managing inventories in several domestic and international warehouses.
  • The project needed to be finished within a specific time frame.
