Streamlining Logistics Operations
A Case Study on ERP and Mobile App Development for a Leading European Logistics Company
Our client, a prominent logistics company in Europe, approached us with the ambitious goal of modernizing and optimizing their operations through the development of a comprehensive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. The project also included the creation of companion mobile apps to provide real-time access and control to logistics processes. The primary objectives were to enhance operational efficiency, improve decision-making, and empower users with on-the-go capabilities.
- Develop a robust ERP system to streamline logistics operations.
- Create companion mobile apps for iOS and Android platforms.
- Utilize cutting-edge technologies, including React.js for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android, MongoDB for the database, and AWS for cloud hosting.
- Assemble a skilled development team of eight professionals.
- Complete the project within a 9-month timeframe, with ongoing maintenance afterward.
The project was executed in a well-structured manner, balancing the complexities of ERP development and mobile app creation.
Planning and Architecture:
- Conducted extensive discussions with stakeholders to understand business processes and requirements.
- Designed a comprehensive ERP system with modules for inventory management, order processing, logistics tracking, and reporting.
- Defined the architecture, selecting React.js for the frontend, Node.js for the backend, Swift for iOS, Kotlin for Android, MongoDB for the database, and AWS for scalable and secure cloud hosting.
Development:
- Formed a dedicated team of eight developers, each specialized in React.js, Node.js, Swift, Kotlin, MongoDB, and AWS.
