Valiant Hire

Client Objective

The client needed to transform its existing pictures-and-text web site into a dynamic, database-driven e-commerce application. Additionally:

• Administrators needed an easy way to maintain inventory, review orders, and communicate with customers.
• Given that many customers need the same product year after year, the client wanted to give them the ability to select and submit reorders.
• Customers also wanted to make the ordering process easier by not having to reenter shipping addresses and details.

Our Approach

• We had a series of meetings with the client to help come to an understanding of the desired feature set.
• Starting from the existing site design, we made minimal modifications to accommodate the new dynamic elements.
• We worked with the client's IT staff to understand their existing product data and how to migrate it to the new web application.

Our Solution

• We designed a database to manage inventory and orders and populated the database from the client's legacy system.
• We built a set of tools to allow administrators to maintain product inventory, review orders, and update order status.
• We added personalization with a "My Valiant" section. Registered customers can see their order history, reorder items from that history, maintain lists of ship-to addresses, and more.
