Challenge	The client, a global jersey wear apparel industry leader based in South Asia, faced significant challenges with their Order Management System, which was built using legacy Oracle Forms and Reports. The system, although functionally adequate, was difficult to use and required a skilled workforce for maintenance. It was not in sync with modern-day requirements, such as mobile workforce support and dynamic business needs, leading to high maintenance costs. The business sought to invest in future-proofing technology while reusing important business assets gathered over two decades, including business logic and application-specific data. Read More
About Customer	Our client is a global jersey wear apparel industry leader based in South Asia. They specialize in the design and production of fast-fashion jersey wear products for the high streets. Their Order Management system was built using legacy Oracle Forms and Reports and was continuously enhanced for over two decades. While functionally the system met the requirements, the application was difficult to use and required skilled force for maintenance. The system could not keep up with modern-day requirements around mobile workforce support, dynamic business requirements, and increasing costs. Read More
Solution	The client modernized their existing Order Management System using WaveMaker. The new application built on WaveMaker low-code addressed the existing challenges of usability and mobility and helped deliver a future-proof scalable architecture. The solution involved retaining the Oracle database and business logic while reusing the legacy database through simple REST API-based database connectors on WaveMaker. WaveMaker widgets, themes, and styles were used to create a modern, responsive UI that supports multiple form factors, including desktop, mobile, and tablet interfaces. The entire application, including its integration, was built using WaveMaker’s WYSIWYG interface with a visual drag-and-drop method, drastically reducing the overall effort to develop the UI and reducing the time-to-market. The platform also enabled quick setup and automated deployment of the developed application across development, staging, and production environments, making app delivery error-free and efficient.
