Enablement of custom integrations to legacy systems for a US-based leading wholesaler of home decor and furniture products

The Business Need

Based out of the US, a large home and furniture brand approached Mobius to assist with multiple system integration for their business. The client required their internal and external systems to be integrated to eliminate data silos and have a centralized data repository. The seamless integration resulted in an 80% increase in time to market with significant reductions in costs.

Challenges we faced

  • Multiple internal and external systems, including marketplaces, websites, inventory and order management systems, ERP, and internal pricing systems, were to be integrated.
  • Disconnected data sources caused data silos, which needed to be interconnected.
  • Ensuring a centralized environment for all product data using our homegrown Product Information Management, PIMworks.
  • Involved a lot of manual work using spreadsheets, custom scripts, and IT overhead.
  • Managing large volumes of transactional data generated every day for hundreds of thousands of products across more than 30 channels.

How we solved the problem

  • Created a viable architecture by collaborating with the client’s IT, product, marketing, and ecommerce teams.
  • Built repeatable and reusable modules that benefit the ecosystem.
  • Configured connectors for multiple marketplaces (Amazon, Walmart, etc.) and channels (Shopify, etc.) using out of the box modules with simple UI.
  • Applied REST API methods to build custom API endpoints to pull, create, and update product data.
  • Optimized our services for scalability to handle large volumes of data.
  • Enabled seamless integration through native APIs.
  • Used native APIs for seamless integration with ERP and internal systems to sync unified data with PIM.
  • Provided configurable webhooks to connect internal pricing and inventory management systems when product data is created or updated in PIM and sent instant notifications as JSON to the webhook endpoint.

Results

  • Saved thousands of dollars spent on managing multiple systems.
  • Improved the efficiency of the processes and Increased the time to market by 80%.
  • Reduced manual efforts to help the client focus on other strategic activities.
