Ecommerce Operations Sprint
Connect the work behind your storefront.
Improve one operational ecommerce flow: catalogue updates, stock synchronization, orders, or reporting. A tested integration with visibility when something fails.
Retail and ecommerce teams managing disconnected operations
Sound familiar?
Catalogue or stock updates rely on repetitive manual work.
Orders reach one system but not another.
A custom integration has become difficult to support.
What you take away
Deliverables you
can actually use.
The starting package covers one commerce workflow between two agreed systems. We confirm the exact boundary together.
Implemented workflow
The scoped catalogue, stock, order, or reporting integration.
Reliability checks
Reconciliation, duplicate handling, and visible failure reporting for the agreed flow.
Operations handover
A runbook, recovery steps, and a walkthrough for the people using the integration.
A practical guide
Keep commerce operations consistent across systems.
A catalogue update, stock change, or order transfer can touch several systems and several people. The integration works when they share the same meaning and exceptions are visible. Choose one operational flow and follow it through the business before automating it.
How to do it yourself
First, choose a narrow flow, such as transferring a confirmed order or synchronizing sellable stock. Identify the owner of each value and each status. For stock, distinguish physical quantity, reservations, and what the storefront is allowed to sell. Write down when a change should become visible.
Walk through realistic examples with the operations team. Include a variant, a partial fulfilment, a cancellation, or an unavailable product where those cases belong to the chosen flow. Resolve identifier, rounding, and status-mapping questions before implementing the connection.
Connect the systems in a test environment and record each event’s identity. Design duplicate handling before enabling automatic retries. An order notification received twice should lead to the same intended business state, with enough history to explain how that state was reached.
Check what happens when an event arrives late or a service is unavailable. Compare the source and destination regularly so missing changes can be found. Give the operations team a visible exception and a documented recovery action instead of leaving failures hidden in a technical log.
Finally, review a complete operating cycle with the people who use it. Reconcile the agreed records and business totals, and check that corrections reach the right system. Document how to investigate discrepancies and when a person needs to decide the next action.
How we approach the work
Our commerce experience includes DiVintage’s catalogue, product, checkout, delivery, and customer-account workflows. We bring that operational perspective together with .NET services and domain modeling. It helps us examine how a technical event changes the work of someone handling products, orders, or customer requests.
Our plan defines one flow, implements its rules and connections, and verifies both reconciliation and recovery. We review the result with the operations owner and hand over the supporting runbook. The emphasis is a maintainable process with clear ownership at each boundary.
The tools behind the work
We work with the commerce platforms’ APIs and webhooks, .NET services or workers, and SQL where durable state is needed. OpenAPI helps document HTTP contracts. Automated checks exercise mapping and repeated events; Playwright can verify a relevant storefront or back-office journey when it belongs to the scope.
In SDD, Specs Driven Development, the commerce rules connect to specifications, implementation issues, and acceptance examples. We record cases such as cancellation or delayed stock updates so a later integration change can be reviewed against its effect on daily operations.

A few useful answers
Before we start.
Can you work with a custom ecommerce platform?
Yes. We first inspect its APIs and data model. The scope depends on the access and integration mechanisms available, rather than a promise to support every plugin or platform.
How is the engagement priced?
The indicative estimate starts at €6,500, excluding VAT, for the stated package boundary. After a fit conversation, you receive a fixed quote with the exact deliverables, fee, and schedule. Work starts after acceptance; changes are quoted separately.
What happens after delivery?
You receive the working files, findings, and a handover session. Your team can take the next steps, or we can scope a follow-on engagement together.
