Project Summary

Monterail was hired to develop an MVP web app for a hospitality startup to digitize procurement and inventory workflows. The engagement included business analysis, backend (Python/Django) and frontend (React.js) development, and ongoing collaboration with the client's in-house developers to prepare the product for market. The MVP supported product listings, supplier price-catalogue integration, order creation and basic inventory management; customers were satisfied at market launch.

Key Challenges

Create an MVP and then build the product with the client to reach market readiness

Product listing and display screens
Order creation functionality
Rudimentary inventory management features
Backend interfaces to integration software and Elasticsearch

Project Solution

Monterail provided end-to-end development including business analysis, backend and frontend engineering.

They continued with ongoing development alongside the client's in-house developers, delivering backend integrations (including Elasticsearch) and additional frontend features such as barcode scanning.
