Transforming B2B Manufacturing with a Smart Tagging Platform
A mid-sized manufacturer sought to modernize its inspection and usage tracking. By integrating a smart tagging system into their products and leveraging API platform, plus a web and mobile app, they achieved real-time data visibility—enabling faster decision-making and smoother operations across the supply chain.
The Pain Point
Manual Data Entry: Existing processes relied on paperwork or spreadsheets, causing delays and inaccuracies.
Lack of Real-Time Insights: Buyers and internal teams had no simple way to check manufacturing dates, usage frequency, or maintenance history.
Disconnected Systems: Data existed in multiple silos, hindering effective communication and transparency.
What We Did
Developed a Centralized Platform: Created a secure API that seamlessly connects each tagged product with both a website portal and a mobile app.
Streamlined Inspection Workflow: Enabled on-site scanning of products to update and log inspection details instantly.
Unified Data Management: Consolidated manufacturing, usage, and maintenance information into a single system accessible by both the manufacturer and its clients.
Tools We Used
API Platform: Ensured secure, real-time data exchange between the smart tagging system, the web portal, and the mobile app.
Website & Mobile App: Provided an intuitive interface for scanning, logging inspections, and reviewing product history.
Cloud Infrastructure: Offered scalable hosting and robust data storage, ensuring reliable access for stakeholders.
Analytics & Reporting Modules: Enabled stakeholders to monitor usage trends, maintenance intervals, and operational efficiencies at a glance.
