E-commerce · B2B and B2C

Online ordering that stays connected to your stock, your prices and your payments.

We build online stores and ordering portals for consumers and for trade buyers: catalogs, customer-specific prices, carts, payments, delivery options and order tracking, connected to your ERP so that stock, prices and orders stay in step. For businesses that sell to other businesses we build account-based ordering with price lists and approvals; for consumers, a fast and simple checkout.

Capabilities

What E-Commerce & Digital Commerce covers

  • Storefronts and catalogs

    Product pages, categories and content your team can manage, designed to be fast on a phone.

  • B2B ordering

    Account-based buying with customer price lists, minimum quantities, approvals and reordering.

  • Payments and checkout

    A simple checkout with the payment methods your customers use, and reconciliation to your accounts.

  • Stock and order sync

    Stock levels and prices read from your ERP, and orders written back to it, so there is one version of the truth.

  • Delivery and tracking

    Delivery options, shipping rules and order status that customers can follow.

  • Search and discovery

    Search and filters that help buyers find the right product, and tell you what they could not find.

Is it the right one?

Where it fits, and where it does not

We would rather you choose the right thing than the one we happen to be discussing.

A strong fit when

  • You already sell, and orders arrive by phone, email or messaging and are typed in by hand.
  • Trade customers want to order and reorder outside office hours.
  • Stock and prices differ between your shop, your warehouse and your online channel.
  • You want the store to follow your pricing and approval rules, not the other way round.

Look at something else when

  • A hosted shop already covers your needs: we can configure it and integrate it with your ERP rather than build one.
  • You have no ERP or stock system yet: get the stock right first (see the SAP solutions).
  • You want a promise of sales: nobody can honestly give one. We build the store and measure how it performs.

How we deliver

How Abrimatt delivers E-Commerce

Every engagement runs in phases, so the business sees progress and risks surface early. The timescale for each phase is set after an assessment, not before.

  1. Understand the selling

    Learn how customers buy today, what they ask for and where orders go wrong.

  2. Decide build or configure

    Choose between configuring a platform and building one, on cost, fit and who will run it.

  3. Design the catalog and checkout

    Design what is sold, how it is priced and how a buyer completes an order.

  4. Connect the back office

    Connect stock, prices, orders, payments and delivery, and test the failures as well as the successes.

  5. Launch to a few

    Open to a group of customers first, fix what they find, then open to all.

  6. Improve

    Read the search terms, abandoned carts and orders, and improve the store from them.

Questions we are asked

E-Commerce: questions and answers

Should we build a store or use a platform?

Often a platform, configured and connected well, is the right answer. We build when your pricing, approvals or processes do not fit a platform. We recommend one or the other, and explain the reasons.

Which payment providers can you connect?

The providers available in your market. Which ones suit you depends on where you trade and who your customers are, and we confirm that early in the project.

Can the store use the stock and prices in our ERP?

Yes. Through the ERP's interfaces, with SAP or with other systems, so that the store shows current stock and prices and sends its orders back. We also design for what happens when the connection is down.
