Centrally Managed Shopping Sites

Multiple unique niche shopping sites centrally managed.

Client:	Systems Plus Computers, Inc. (SPCI)
Background:	SPCI provides computer and technology solutions to small and medium sized businesses in the north east United States.
Challenge:	SPCI wanted to offer customized shopping carts with tailored products and pricing. Ranging from corporate client employee discount programs to incoming classes at one of their many educational institution accounts. Due to the volume of sites and the quick turnaround expected by their clients, SPCI also needed a way to automate the entire process of populating each cart's product selection directly from their procurement system.
Solution:	A-Team began with a Zen Cart base shopping site solution, and squared it. A custom management interface was developed which provides a central way for SPCI to monitor and review each site, keeping everything manageable even as the number of sites climbs. As each new site is rolled out SPCI builds a quote inside their wholesaler's website, adding products and adjusting pricing as needed. This quote is then used as the target for our highly tailored screen-scraping system which logs in and downloads all needed product details, images and pricing. This is then seamlessly brought into the shopping site's product list, all with a single click. From a list of products in a quote to a live ecommerce site in seconds: no copying and pasting or manually entering products, pictures or pricing. Central console allows a sane and visual overview to all active shopping sites. Updating a site's products is as easy as editing the quote and clicking the button again. Existing orders are preserved. The ability to override images, pricing or other details as needed. These overrides persist across imports so overrides are re-applied after an update.
