Project Overview
Rugs and Furniture e-commerce website is a web-based e-commerce system that is meant to provide information on product availability and purchase as well as financing options. The customer requested the creation of an e-commerce website, which would link physical store inventory to an online inventory with the help of the developer team during the course of 1 year and 5 months.
The e-commerce website acts as a communication channel between buyers who shop online and physical stores, enabling buyers to view the stock levels of products in different sales channels and pre-order the products along with financing options. Administrators will be able to control product catalogs, bundle offers, financing, stock levels, and customer feedback.
Project Objectives
- Reduction of friction during discovery and purchase of furniture and rugs.
- Greater transparency on availability of products online and offline.
- Simple way of reserving items before going into stores.
- Effective management of sales, packaging, and clearances.
- Flexible financing and installments.

Business Challenges
1. Poor Availability Status of Products
Buyers had no visibility of the availability status of products in the virtual space or the nearby brick-and-mortar stores resulting in missed sales opportunities.
2. Complex Sales Across Multiple Channels
The difficulty to manage stock statuses of available products (Available Online, Available at nearby Stores, Out of stock online, Out of stock in nearby stores).
3. No Options for Flexible Purchase Financing
High-cost products such as rugs and furnitures would require flexible buying options due to high price tag. The lack of an option for installment plan reduced customer buying capacity.
4. Unproductive Inventory Holding and Reservation
The option for buyers to hold items without proper reservations caused inventory conflict.
5. Fragmented Promotional & Feedback Management
Dealing with package deals and clearance separately made it difficult to devise marketing strategies.
