About the project

The company approached us with a need to optimise and automate processes to make it easier for cooperating contractors to place orders. Until then, there was no system that could transfer orders and they were received by email and recorded in MS Excel sheets.

This resulted in numerous errors in order processing and increasing customer dissatisfaction. At that point, the company was already planning expansion abroad, for which a transparent and optimised ordering process was a necessity.

Challenges

What did we deal with?

Business challenges:
  • Optimizing the internal communication process in a company with thousands of employees nationwide.
  • Automating processes to save time and facilitate the flow of information within the organization.
  • Encourage employees to communicate via an internal system.
Project risks:
  • Kentico technology - technology not very popular on the Polish market.
  • Pandemic period - need to adapt work system to new realities.
  • Unstructured sales processes on the customer side.
  • Frequently changing requirements due to project technology mix.
  • Rotation on the client side.
Technology challenges:
  • Integrations with many internal company systems.
  • System configuration on the company's internal infrastructure.
  • Design and implementation of the system according to the UI/UX design created by an external organization.
  • Configuration of RPI + RFID module for touch-screen operation of the system.

Due to its wide range of competences in the IT areaNexio was invited to take part in a joint project, guaranteeing that we could face different technologies in a single implementation.

The final design of the internal communication system required the use and integration of several independent technologies.
