John Boyle and Company (JBC) was a 100+ year old material weaving company.  They started business in the mid 1800's making canvas material for sailing ships and wagons.  Later with patens for weaving and coloring material JBC became the largest Awing material manufactor and distribtor.  While they were inovative and cutting edge in their busienss core for the past 100+ years they were a bit behind in developing a web storefront. 

When we met John Boyle and Company they had over 10,000 products and as many customers.  As a very old wholesale manufactor they also had 6 different pricing structors.  Over the past 20 years JBC had developed an inhouse order fulfillment and tracking system to keep up with their $200 Million volumn based on the IBM AS400 technology. 

Our assignment was to integrate their legacy system with a new web storefront, matching every feature of their order fulfillment product in less than 8 months.  AND WE DID.

Within the allowed time we developed a custom online shopping experience that took into account every customer's pricing level on their specific product.  We also added features link Last Order Recall, Quick Order Templates, and Frequently Ordered Products.  All of these features took into account inventory based in the 5 distrubution wharehouse and packaged the most economical solutions for JBC.

During the testing phase our custom developed web storefront handeled several Million dollars in orders without any serious flaws.  When our system went live it was so productive it allowed JBC to sail though their high seasonal sales cycle without having to hire the customary seasonal workers.

With the more profitable bottom-line JBC was successful in finding a buyer of the company.  Unfortunately the new owner already had their own web storefront.
