Skechers
The transition to Shopify has made content production easier, more enjoyable, and time-saving for editors. It has been like going from an old Lada to a Tesla, offering a significant upgrade in terms of efficiency and user experience.
As it was not just a design project but also an integration project involving ERP and PIM, we needed a partner who had prior experience in such implementations. And here, we have truly been in safe hands. The collaboration with Novicell has been excellent as we have successfully found solutions together.
An agile project process
When we initially started the project, we had a different idea of what we were supposed to do. Novicell has managed to be agile and adaptable when changes occurred in the project. And together, we have found good solutions.
Middleware solution
Key features of the solution
A flexible middleware layer for gradual ERP phase-out
A middleware layer was implemented in Microsoft Azure to connect Skechers Nordics’ existing product and order connectors to the new finance and inventory systems.
Skechers Nordics was already using Novicell’s connectors to integrate Shopify with their other systems, making the transition smoother and more efficient. The middleware layer enabled a gradual phase-out of the old NAV ERP system, with existing orders still processed in NAV while new orders were managed by the new systems.
Solution architecture
A future-proof integration for continued growth
The solution has ensured that order management, product data, inventory synchronization, order tracking, and financial operations are fully integrated with their new systems without compromising customer experience or disrupting daily operations.
Additionally, the composite architecture allows Skechers Nordics to integrate additional systems, ensuring long-term scalability and flexibility.
If your company is seeking an adaptable integration solution during a transition or acquisition, Novicell’s middleware platforms offer a seamless and scalable way to phase out old systems and integrate new ones.
