Project Summary

SDI built and continues to maintain the backend CMS and warehouse system for a farm-to-table delivery service. The original system was implemented on a .NET stack with a MySQL server; the client is transitioning toward a MEAN stack while SDI maintains and hosts the system on AWS. The vendor provides ongoing optimizations, strong communication, and meets the client's operational needs.

Key Challenges

Build the initial system to run the warehouse and CMS
Manage inventory and partner integrations within the CMS
Maintain and optimize an older system while planning a rebuild

Project Deliverables

Backend CMS and warehouse system
Initial system built from the ground up (backend design)
Ongoing maintenance and hosting on AWS
Transition planning toward a MEAN-stack rebuild / migration

Project Solution

SDI built the client's CMS and warehouse system from the ground up, handling backend design and implementation (originally on a .NET/MySQL stack). They maintain and host the system on AWS, perform ongoing optimizations, and are scoping a rebuild/transition toward a MEAN stack. The vendor works with a small dedicated team (two developers and an account manager) and coordinates with a third-party frontend designer.

Project Outcome

Long-standing engagement with ongoing optimizations and consistent fulfillment of needs
Improved warehouse processes through system builds and applied learning from other clients
Strong communication and on-time delivery that support operational stability
