Global eCommerce
A scalable, easily-adaptable platform - including local markets in the future



Project outline
The Client was unable to effectively manage and develop a network of eShops (8 implemented eShops with over 10k active user accounts). Despite the fact the shops operated under one brand, they were separate, not integrated entities both in terms of the environment in which they were created as well as the management through two different B2C and B2B sales channels.
The business goals of the Client:
- To create a global, scalable eCommerce platform for all Clients (B2B and B2C) of Mercator Medical with a centrally managed logistics system and administration, as well as with full integration of other systems used by the company (WMS, CRM, PIM, ERP)
- To increase the effectiveness of sales through the eCommerce channel
- To prepare the platform for an easy introduction to all markets where Mercator Medical is present

About the client
The Mercator Medical Group is a Polish company from Cracow which has been manufacturing and distributing single-use medical materials and gloves. It is currently one of the biggest companies of this type in the world and it sells its products in over 70 countries.
About the project flow
Determining the business needs in detail
Presenting the possibilities and technical limitations that might occur
Discussing the pros and cons of different options of creating an integrated platform
Establishing a cooperation model that would fulfil the business goals
The project was implemented in the T&M model in which the Client has a real influence and may model work as part of sprints while paying only for the work that has been completed by the team. At the beginning of the cooperation, the main goals were determined, which served as the navigators during the planning stages of further sprints and tasks associated with them.
Our cooperation was based on two pillars. First, from the very beginning, together with the Client we assumed that the process of the platform’s creation is a combination of constant integration of systems with constant introduction to new customer groups. Second, to provide code of the highest quality through automated tests, GIT flow and the process of code revision and verification.
