Business Challenges & Digital Requirements
The organization required a complete overhaul of its existing operations and business management system so it could safely venture into the e-commerce sector and acquire new customers while maintaining the trust of its existing clientele. This necessitated the reorganization of their extensive catalogue, including their readily available and custom products. The company also needed a robust custom ERP software solution that would connect their operations end-to-end, as well as a B2B online ordering platform giving customers greater control over shipment dates and order tracking.
Custom ERP Solution Overview
To address these challenges, Vestra Inet designed a fully integrated custom ERP system with seamless connections to:
An ERP-driven e-commerce system
A real-time digital catalogue
An interactive product configurator
This ensured the technology foundation was strong enough to support long-term growth while streamlining daily operations.
Inventory & Production Management
Inventory and manufacturing processes were initially difficult to track due to manual data entry and outdated systems. This resulted in delayed sales cycles and limited production visibility. The custom ERP solution resolved these issues by consolidating data into a single platform and providing real-time insights into inventory levels and production cycles.
This allowed better planning, faster decision-making, and improved operational efficiency.
Seamless B2B E-Commerce Integration
To ensure a seamless entry into e-commerce, a robust B2B e-commerce software was implemented. Equipped with useful features such as seamless integration with the CRM platform and ERP system, the software performed instant calculations for custom orders and automatically applied discounts without errors, helping improve conversion rates.
Shipping, Order Tracking & Automation
Integrating multiple shipping and merchant options further enhanced order fulfillment. Customers gained visibility into shipping costs through an automatic shipping cost calculator, ensuring transparency and trust. The platform also supports order tracking and real-time updates, improving overall customer satisfaction.
Online Ordering & Product Configuration
Manual order processing was eliminated through an online ordering management system, reducing human errors and enabling 24/7 order placement. A built-in product configurator allows customers to customize products with complete flexibility, apply filters, and complete multi-stage selections with ease.
Project Outcome & Business Impact
Vestra Inet’s custom ERP software empowered Vibra Systems Inc. to scale operations, reach new markets, and improve customer satisfaction. From order entry to final shipment, every process was digitized, transparent, and efficient—resulting in streamlined workflows and a future-ready manufacturing ecosystem.

Development and implementation of these online ordering systems leads to seamless end-to-end order placement that significantly improves the ease of the process. Additionally, the elimination of human involvement in the ordering process reduces staffing costs, eradicates the risk of human errors, and makes the ordering systems available 24/7. Special calculator integration also drastically boosts the speed with which large, complex orders are placed and processed. The automation of this system helps reduce supply chain complexity while allowing multi-stage customizations with ease.
Product Configurator
- Real-time product view
- Automatic SKU generation
- Multiple-stage customization
- Quote generation integration
- Custom compatibility filters
Product configuration software is a smart tool that allows your customers to accurately configure products to the smallest detail before ordering them. We design custom product configuration systems to intelligently guide users in a step-by-step process, ending up with their desired product. Product modifications can be visualized in real time, enabling your customers to see the unit as each element or detail is added or deleted. This feature also enables your customers to preview the product before placing an order, giving you confidence that your customers get a positive post-purchase impression and will come to you for more business.
When we build product configurators, we account for compatibility filters and exceptions that apply automatically as your client customizes the product, ensuring incompatible or irrelevant elements are not displayed during configuration. This accounts for your unique assembly process so that your customers can be guided through the product assembly without live agent involvement.
Product configurator can be integrated with a custom quote generator feature so your customers can create a quote and adjust it at any time before placing the order. Once the product is fully configured, the system can automatically generate a unique SKU, ensuring your customer’s order details are secure and error-free and the product your client receives in the end is exactly what they ordered.
Online Catalogue
- Multi-system integration
- Complex item relationships
- Automatic SKU generation
Having large inventories consisting of thousands of items with different variants and combinations leads to organizational issues. One of the obstacles faced by clients is the presentation of these listings to customers. Appropriate relationships between items of different compatibility settings are critical to a smooth user experience when navigating the product listings. Additionally, identification of unique items and combinations is essential where products are modified with infinite combinations of components. Effective search functionality within such an inventory is crucial to ensure user satisfaction.
Based on individual requirements, online catalogues were implemented for various clients. These systems were implemented alongside multiple systems and databases. Integration was supported with existing systems such as inventory control, production management, e-commerce platforms, and more. Various complex relationships were defined between items and their components to ensure compatibility. Additionally, online product builders were designed and implemented as required. In these cases, every uniquely designed item variant could be automatically added to the existing catalogue with a unique automatically assigned SKU number, creating self-propagating catalogues. Other features such as table builders (one product - multiple SKUs) and compatibility filters were also designed.
E-commerce System
- CRM and ERP connection
- Quantity discount and special rate calculations
- Multiple shipping and merchant integrations
Currently, there are various commercially available software applications to facilitate e-commerce functionality such as Shopify. These have a fixed set of features that are meant to work with straightforward e-commerce operations. However, in more complicated scenarios, these lack features to meet the unique needs of individual businesses.
Complex e-commerce solutions were designed and tailored to meet specialized requirements such as customizable price margins, connectivity to product builder tools, quantity-based discount calculations and connection to CRM and ERP systems. Order placement features included support for QR codes or scanner guns. Additionally, special rate calculators and communication with multiple shipping carrier databases were designed. These features were implemented based on client needs in order to improve the specific capabilities of e-commerce systems unique to each client.
