Project Summary

Elinext took over and continued development of a warehouse management system for an international hand tools company (KS Tools). The team built and maintained multiple backend services handling picking, packing, labeling, and shipping workflows, integrated the system with the client's ERP and warehouse hardware, and delivered a Web API (AutoDoc) plus an Android barcode-scanning app for stock-taking.
