Replicate the UK (international) site to a US specific site. Logistic / systems integration. Payment gateways. Product catalogue management (Magento 2 MSI). US Logistics – 50 (+1) states, Avalar Tax integration. Country switch between main site (lsa-international.com) and US version (lsa-international.com/us) – desktop and mobile.
the results
A 4 month project took 12 months to complete. Why? A major underestimation of system and locale specification on both sides – the client side and ours – ie. varying shipping taxation levels across 50 different states, catalogue differentiation and management, ERP and logistics system integrations etc. (scope creep).
Transparency between client and agency is paramount to project success. And the ability to acknowledge when things aren’t quite going to plan, with strong client / project management planning to fix ongoing issues.
