A complete end-to-end system covering product management, order processing, inventory tracking, and reporting — designed to meet the specific workflow requirements of the client. A central pillar of the engagement was driving a paperless transition: replacing printed brochures and paper-based processes with digital equivalents, reducing the client's environmental footprint and operational costs simultaneously.
Problem
The client relied heavily on printed product brochures for sales presentations and used paper-based workflows across inventory and order management. This created significant waste, high printing costs, and a carbon footprint inconsistent with a forward-thinking brand. Off-the-shelf platforms offered no path to a coherent paperless strategy alongside the core commerce operations.
Approach
Requirements were mapped closely before architecture decisions were made. A modular fullstack approach was adopted to allow the system to evolve without significant rework. The paperless initiative was treated as a first-class feature — not an afterthought — resulting in a dedicated SaaS PDF viewer module built directly into the platform.
Technical work
Backend API design, database schema, frontend implementation, authentication, and deployment configuration. Key additions include a SaaS-grade interactive PDF brochure viewer — enabling clients and sales teams to browse product catalogues digitally without printing, shareable via secure links — and a full paperless operations layer eliminating paper dependency across the order and inventory workflow. The transition directly reduced paper consumption and CO₂ emissions from print logistics.
Outcome
Magnus Leathers went paperless. Printed brochures were replaced by the in-platform PDF viewer, saving paper and print costs across every sales cycle. Inventory and order management shifted entirely to the digital platform. The environmental impact of the change aligns with the studio's interest in applying technology to sustainability challenges.
