Carrier Rate Comparison & Automated Shipment Tracking

The Challenge

Logistics dispatchers spent hours logging into multiple carrier web portals, downloading tracking updates, and manually emailing customers with delivery ETAs.

The Technical Solution

Built a unified tracking aggregator and RPA bot that automates status retrieval across carrier portals every 30 minutes, syncs delivery milestones into a central dashboard, and triggers automated alerts to shippers.

Target Architecture Outcomes

Target outcome: Designed to reduce inbound customer status inquiries by up to 80%
Target outcome: Saves dispatchers up to 12 hours weekly, allowing teams to handle higher shipment volume
Target outcome: Delivers real-time delivery visibility to commercial shippers via automated alerts

Multi-Channel Inventory Sync Target

Multi-Channel Inventory Synchronization & Stock Alerts

The Challenge

The company sold through their wholesale portal, Shopify, and Amazon. Inventory counts were manually updated via CSV exports, causing frequent overselling and cancelled orders during sales spikes.

The Technical Solution

Engineered a centralized, event-driven inventory synchronization engine connecting central warehouse databases directly with Shopify and Amazon APIs, maintaining real-time availability across all channels.

Target Architecture Outcomes

Target outcome: Eliminates overselling penalties and stockout order cancellations through bidirectional API sync
Target outcome: Automated low-stock supplier re-order notifications eliminate manual weekly inventory tallying
Target outcome: Maintains high fulfillment accuracy with real-time stock availability locks
