Our client, Dior, a global fashion and luxury brand, needed a solution to modernise, optimise, and automate their e-commerce sales processes. Our team developed a specialised CMS that streamlined order management, enhanced scalability, and improved overall performance across multiple Dior services worldwide. This tailored solution allowed Dior to manage their extensive product catalogue efficiently, analyse sales data, and provide seamless shopping experience for their customers, significantly boosting operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.
Dior, a renowned global brand, has a rich history dating back to its founding in 1946 by Christian Dior. The company has established itself as a leader in the fashion and luxury industry, offering a wide range of high-end products, including clothing, leather goods, perfumes, cosmetics, watches, jewellery and wines. With a commitment to innovation, quality and elegance, Dior has built a loyal customer base and a reputation for timeless style.
The challenges included inefficient order processing, lengthy checkout times, limited scalability, and a substantial monthly workload associated with Dior’s support system. These issues affected Dior’s ability to provide a seamless and satisfying shopping experience for its customers and fully leverage the potential of its luxury brand.
We tailored a CMS to address Dior’s unique needs. It allows managing customer orders and lists of offered products, collecting and analysing sales statistics, and, based on the obtained results, conducting more precise planning of the production of certain products. Specially trained managers carry out all management processes through a separate managerial panel.
As a result of the above solutions, the client received a product that allows customers to select specific shops on the map, order goods from a huge product catalogue, leave feedback, create wishlists, pre-order products that are not yet on the market, manage orders, and monitor the movement of goods from the shop to the customer.
The solutions also reduced checkout time by up to 25% by streamlining order processing and purchase workflows, while enabling the client to automate eCommerce operations for hundreds of thousands of customers around the world.
Computools was chosen for this project due to its Software Engineering expertise and ability to deliver tailor-made solutions that met Dior’s specific challenges. Computools demonstrated commitment to delivering outstanding results, as evidenced by the substantial improvements in average order value, checkout times, user throughput, and support system workload reduction. The team’s dedication, technical proficiency, and problem-solving capabilities made Computools the ideal partner for transforming Dior’s e-commerce operations and ensuring a world-class shopping experience for its global customer base.

Node.js
Node.js served as the core technology, providing the foundation for building a high-performance and responsive digital platform.
ES5, ES6
Using ECMAScript 5 (ES5) and ECMAScript 6 (ES6) ensured compatibility and enabled the use of modern JavaScript features for efficient development.
Koa2
Koa2.js, a lightweight and modern web framework for Node.js, was employed to create a robust and scalable back-end system.
Ldap
LDAP (Lightweight Directory Access Protocol) was integrated for user authentication and directory services, enhancing security and user management.
Passport.js
Passport.js was used for authentication and authorisation, providing a user-friendly and secure experience.
Redis
Redis, an in-memory data store, played a vital role in caching and optimising data access for improved system performance.
Sequelize.js
Sequelize.js, an ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) tool, was used for database management, ensuring efficient interaction with the MSSQL and CouchDB databases.
MSSQL
Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL) was employed for structured data storage and management, supporting critical business data.
CouchDB
CouchDB, a NoSQL database, was utilised for its flexibility and scalability in handling unstructured and complex data.
Mocha + Chai
The Mocha testing framework and Chai assertion library were implemented to support a robust testing process, ensuring the reliability and quality of the digital platform.
Computools adopted the Agile project management methodology, specifically Scrum. Scrum is a popular Agile framework used for managing Software Engineering projects. It emphasises iterative and incremental development, flexibility and collaboration.
The improvements in efficiency and customer satisfaction are remarkable. We couldn’t be happier with the results!
Epson partnered with Computools to develop Readylnk, an innovative solution that leverages modernisation and IT automation to transform customer experience and generate a steady revenue stream. Readylnk automatically monitors ink levels in printers and notifies the customer when it is time to place an order. The system provides an end-to-end interface for ordering cartridges, organising delivery and processing payments.
As part of its Digital Transformation and Information Technology Automation initiatives, Bombardier, along with other smaller manufacturers, operating in the aviation industry, benefited from an enhanced document version control system, built around distributed architecture concepts in line with stringent security requirements. The system provides detailed aircraft maintenance instructions to aircraft technicians in seconds, eliminating the need to contact technical support or search for a specific version of a document. The solution reduced the interaction time between pilots and technical staff and saved back-and-forth communication requesting correct versions of operational manuals.
Our client, WorldTicket, provides Passenger Service Systems (PSS) for airlines worldwide. The client wanted to deliver a modern and user-friendly online experience for travellers, and our team proposed software reengineering to bridge this gap. We redesigned and updated the software system's user interface, helped the client migrate to a modern database system, and integrated with the existing PSS platform. The solution significantly improved communication, increased sales, and provided a modern booking experience.
