PIM and ERP Lite
Multi-Channel eCommerce + ERP Lite
An industrial parts supplier needed more than a storefront. We designed a headless website and then built a PIM/ERP-lite tool that cleans product data, syncs across channels, and centralizes orders, inventory, and reporting.
Problem
- Initial ask was a new eCommerce site, but the catalog quality made a direct migration risky.
- Product data scattered and inconsistent; hard to bulk edit or enforce structure.
- Multiple sales channels (Amazon, eBay, BigCommerce) with manual, error-prone updates.
- No unified view of orders/customers across channels; limited analytics and trend visibility.
- Inventory and purchasing were tracked separately without a simple, connected workflow.
Solution
- Headless architecture with BigCommerce for storefront; custom PIM/ERP-lite for operations.
- Spreadsheet-like bulk editing with validations and multi-record publishing in one click.
- Channel integrations & sync for Amazon, eBay, and BigCommerce (listings, inventory, orders).
- CRM layer to track customers and orders across channels with a customizable dashboard.
- Inventory tracking, purchase orders, and a light accounting layer (chart of accounts, balances).
- Composable design so teams can extend reports and workflows without vendor lock-in.
Results
- Clean, centralized catalog — faster updates and fewer listing errors.
- Single pane of glass for multi-channel orders and customer history.
- Reduced oversells via reliable inventory sync and PO receiving workflows.
- Faster merchandising: bulk edits ship in minutes, not days.
- Flexible reporting for trends and operations without exporting to spreadsheets.
