Build your ideaChallenges
Having to depend on manual processes and antiquated systems means experiencing a lack of control and visibility, resulting in a bad sales experience and increased workload. Merck Chemicals and Life Sciences Indonesia have more than 200,000 products in their inventory. Retrieving the required data, calculating discounts unique to each distributor, and updating it manually in the database was a tedious task. Especially when it is needed to be done on a frequent basis.
Solution
With changing customer expectations, non-traditional competitors entering the market, and costs continually fluctuating, the legacy way of doing things is no longer competitive. In the modern B2B buying process, online transparency, new sales channels, and the Amazon experience are shaping expectations.
By introducing a web application that can help in automating the process of retrieving information and updating the changes to the database, it would result in an easier and more satisfying customer experience.
