Unified web application development to streamline operations by replacing fragmented, Excel sheet-based processes
Overview
A leading optics and photographic equipment manufacturing company was facing challenges managing core business functions through fragmented, Excel-based processes. As operations expanded, the inefficiencies of managing annual budgets, procurement, camera inventory, rentals, and distributor claims manually became unsustainable. A centralized system was required to handle growing demands with greater efficiency and scalability.
Zerozilla delivered a fully integrated web application that replaced the manual, spreadsheet-based approach, streamlining budgeting, procurement, inventory tracking, camera rentals, and distributor claims. This web application empowers employees and partners with a user-friendly interface, offering automated workflows, role-based access, and real-time dashboards for more informed decision-making.
Problem
The manufacturer relied heavily on Excel spreadsheets for managing critical business processes, including budget creation, purchase orders, inventory tracking, camera rentals, and distributor claims. This method caused numerous challenges, including frequent data duplication, delays in approval workflows, and inconsistent data tracking. As the volume of operations increased, the lack of centralized control resulted in inefficiencies and missed opportunities for process optimization.
With fragmented workflows across procurement, finance, and distribution departments, the company faced difficulties in real-time tracking, compliance auditing, and reporting. This disjointed approach not only slowed down daily operations but also hampered strategic decision-making and increased the risk of errors. The need for a unified digital solution to centralize and automate these functions was evident.
PO-NPS System: A platform for managing procurement, budgets, POs, MRFs, invoices, and camera inventory.
Camera & Accessories Rental Portal: Automates the rental process from request to return, ensuring transparency and tracking.
Distributor Claim Management Portal: A portal for distributors to submit and manage marketing and distribution claims through a structured approval workflow.
The project started with an in-depth analysis of the client’s existing systems. The challenge was to integrate the fragmented processes while ensuring minimal disruption to daily operations.
