Challenge

The primary challenge with Orange Publishers was that they were doing things traditionally and that meant they were lagging behind when it came to efficiency and the full implementation of a portal system. They had to juggle between online and offline sales and operations and offline ledgers and accounts as well as sales documentation.

The biggest challenge with their operations was that there was no unified digital portal system or operator dashboard. This meant they had to go back and forth between their online operations and their manual notes. This resulted in errors and a lack of efficiency.
Orange lacked a synchronised and automated portal system with no operations management dashboard that could keep track of sales numbers as well as no clear categorisation of agents and distributors and sales by individual parties.
The other problem that really plagued their operations was the lack of a digital accounting and ledger system. This was actually a hindrance to their growth. Since they do a lot of their selling online and keep their accounting offline, you can understand how that would lead to a problem. They had to go back and forth between their online sales and then track it offline.
Things became even more challenging when it came to book returns because a book return could mean going back multiple times to offline inventory systems and accounts and making sure every data is updated. This was actually becoming an issue that caused problems in their primary business balance sheets.

They needed a unified and universal solution that kept track of everything from a universal dashboard to stocks and distributor details. This solution needed to account for POS lists and order details as well as accounts like payment in(credit) and payment out(debit) with additional sections for author royalty calculations and book return details all in the same place, integrated and automatic.

Solution

To solve this complex challenge, we came up with a solution of creating a universal operator portal with a primary dashboard that is unified throughout all the variables and elements. We brought together every variable and data regarding the operations of this celebrated publishing company so that they could have a look at each and every data in a single place.

This operator portal has a primary dashboard along with an all-inclusive hamburger menu that will let the publishers access different areas. The operator can simply have a glance at an overall status directly from the dashboard and if they need additional details then they can click on individual sections like Clients and Stocks and it will lead them to that subsection. Additionally, the dashboard is followed by this hamburger menu that contains everything from the stocks to the accounting information and much more. Check out all these individual areas.

Results

A significant increase in efficiency and a reduction in time wastage when it comes to accessing vital information.
A significant drop in errors when it comes to data entry synergy regarding online sales and offline sales.
The complete eradication of any offline manual accounting and information lists.
A renewed trust in the Think To Share promise of excellence.
