This project Stacks of Snacks includes development of web based application for an Australian Snacks company running their business through more than 40 franchisees. The application provides a way to manage all their products, manuals, operations and franchise activities through a simple web interface.

  • WHAT WAS THE PROBLEM?

The main problem in designing this web interface is Scattered databases, large text based un-organized databases, remote access, slow coordination and time consuming reports. So for this We have developed a customized CMS having complete inventory control, Sales management, billing, reporting tool havinf full ERP functioning.

  • PURPOSE

The purpose was to provide a web based application accessible from any franchise location and to collect all the transactions in a central database so that reports & analysis can be done instantly without requiring any franchisee to coordinate with the head office.

  • OUR APPROACH

As there were many franchisees and database was un-organized & large so we have used database views, indexing and cloud servers in order to fetch results fast. We have developed a customized CMS having complete inventory control, Sales management, billing, reporting tool. Franchisees login into our online application and can update sales, revenue, stocks, download Product updates, manuals, prices, marketing materials etc in real time.
