Objective
The main project objective was to create an effective tool that helps to:
- centralize customer and order data;
- track the work of sales managers in real time;
- optimize field visit routes and visit planning;
- analyze sales results and employee performance;
- automate deal tracking and customer interaction processes.
Project stages
Analysis
The needs of the sales department were analyzed: what data is critical for reporting, which parameters affect conversion, and what tasks managers perform on site. Best practices in CRM and field team tracking were studied.
Design
An interface focused on simplicity and speed was created: in the mobile version — fast entry of orders and meetings; in the web panel — clear dashboards, charts and report forms.
Development and testing
The app was developed for Android, iOS and a web client with cloud synchronization. Testing covered UX, data flows, stability, integration with backend services and secure data storage.
Features
- Customer base: centralized storage of contacts, deals and interaction history.
- Manager tracking: GPS tracking and route history of field employees.
- Visit planning: calendar, tasks and routes for sales representatives.
- Offline mode: work without network access with subsequent synchronization.
- Reporting and analytics: sales charts, KPIs, performance dynamics.
- Notifications and reminders: about tasks, visit deadlines and order changes.
- CRM integration: data exchange and synchronization with corporate systems.
