Research Solutions needed a store fast.
Research Solutions was producing two truckloads of hand sanitizer a day, but did not have a customer-facing website that allowed individual customers and businesses to purchase the products directly.
The company needed an eCommerce store that could process orders, support customer purchases, and connect cleanly with its existing shipping and logistics operation.
The business problem was not simply, "Can we sell this online?" It was: How do we launch a reliable store quickly while making sure product limits, shipping rules, and logistics all work correctly?
Research Solutions did not need a long discovery process or a custom platform from scratch. They needed a fast, dependable eCommerce launch with the right operational details in place.
The store had to support both urgency and responsibility.
During a nationwide shortage of sanitizing liquid, speed mattered. But speed alone was not enough.
Research Solutions wanted to get hand sanitizer into the hands of as many people as possible to help fight the spread of COVID-19. That meant the online store needed to do more than take orders. It needed to support product limits, shipping rules, and fulfillment workflows that matched the reality of their operations.
A simple store would not have been enough if it created logistics problems behind the scenes.
"We are thankful for the help they have given us over the years."
A Shopify store built and launched in under a week
KEYSYS used Shopify as the eCommerce platform to build ResearchSolutionsStore.com in under a week. Setting up the domain and products was relatively simple, but additional customization was needed to support the parts that mattered most to Research Solutions' operation: shipping logic, freight handling, and product purchase limits.
Instead of overbuilding, KEYSYS helped Research Solutions move quickly with the right platform and the right customizations.
Research Solutions has been a longtime client of KEYSYS, and this project gave the teams another opportunity to work together on a timely, mission-driven need.
