From a challenge...
Velleman wanted to offer its sales representatives a more convenient way to order products with real-time stock information. When visiting retailers, the sales representatives needed to be provided with a way to consult all relevant information and to place orders directly.
...to a solution...
The mobile application we developed for Velleman is used by their salespeople when visiting retailers. At a retailer, they can easily scan products that are almost out of stock when walking through the store. When a product is already out-of-stock they can search for it in the app based on name or product code. Next to the real-time stock information, the price is shown for each product. All products can be added in a basket and ordered immediately. This basket is constantly synced with the web cart. This allows the user to continue on the web whenever he wants.
This mobile application is available for Android and iOS. In order to keep TCO in mind, we decided to go for a cross-platform application. This allows us to easily develop and maintain the application for both Android and iOS while staying within the foreseen budget.
...with impact.
This mobile application allows the salespeople of Velleman to search and order products fast and easily while visiting their customers, which saves a considerable amount of time. By using the app, the amount of errors are decreased as the sales representatives can check their orders directly.
