CHALLENGES

Duty-free Retail Chains had a major challenge of updating their software to the latest version in a small amount of time. With over 20 databases and 65 companies, that wasn't an easy feat by any means.

Databases were massive, ranging from 50-600 GB, and had issues locking up, and deadlocking the system on occasion. In addition, the customer was experiencing pain points in data management between shops because they were using different POS systems at multiple locations.

Apart from it, they would like to have an automatic tool that can do a full Auto-Test of the main Business Transaction and confirm the amount of time interval the system took to complete it. Apart from the above challenges, they required integration with many other Financial Systems and SAP.

SOLUTION

The duty-free Retail Chain was struggling with its challenges and was looking for a dynamic company that could help them. They approached Redefine Dynamics to help them deal with their challenges. We developed a web-based POS system that made it easier to share seamless shopping transactions with their customers across all of the company's stores.

We implemented a Web Application to complete the project with less cost than licenses. The company is making it easier for its customers to work remotely. We installed a 3-tier ERP system in their 35 stores, which allowed them instantaneous transactions and accurate information no matter what device they were using. Redefine developed Complaint Management Module, which was integrated with the Sales module.
