With over 60 stores, Intratuin is the largest supplier of gardening products in the Benelux. The purchasing system that each store used to restock their inventory was rapidly approaching end of life. Together with Intratuin, we designed and developed a modern purchasing system.
All the desired functionalities
We decided to
first analyze what Intratuin was leaving behind in order to gain a
better understanding of where they wanted to go. The old purchasing
system couldn’t be used on mobile devices, and store managers needed to
approve each order before it could be transported. During five two-week
sprints, we created a minimum viable product with all the desired
functionalities.
Ordering on the go
The resulting custom
application can be used for ordering on the go, instead of using the one
desktop computer in store. This saves store teams a lot of time. We
made sure to build and thoroughly check interfaces with all interacting
systems, like stock and back-office solutions. And finally, we took
extra care to make the system as user-friendly as possible.
