About the Client
A leading global agrochemical company with a workforce exceeding 10,000, provider of sustainable agriculture products and solutions, operating in over 130 countries. The organization constantly seeks to modernize its internal tools to enhance efficiency and strategic alignment with customer needs.
Business Impact
This project enabled the agri-tech enterprise to realign its budgeting process from a top-down perspective to a customer-centric approach. The results included:
- Enhanced budgeting accuracy and data validation.
- Increased user satisfaction and adoption.
- A scalable architecture ready for future enhancements.
The Challenge
The Enterprise-grade agriculture company’s legacy budgeting tool was built for top-level budget planning. As market dynamics evolved, the company needed a more granular, customer-focused model.
“We were working with a tool that wasn’t aligned with the way our teams now engage with customers. We needed a smarter, scalable system that reflects how we actually do business.”
— Project Sponsor, Global Agri-tech Enterprise
Key challenges included:
- Data Correction & Transformation: Migrating existing top-level data to a customer-aligned structure.
- Maintaining Data Integrity: Ensuring accuracy without data loss or mismatch.
- User Experience Improvements: Delivering a smooth, intuitive workflow for diverse user roles.
Our Approach
We partnered with the Large-scale agrochemical manufacturer to reimagine their budgeting tool from the ground up. The team focused on:
- A modular redesign of the architecture.
- Improved UI/UX for streamlined user journeys.
- Backend logic that supported data validation and customer-level segmentation.
Why Angular & Spring Boot?
- Angular provided a responsive and interactive front-end capable of dynamic UI updates based on user roles and workflow stages.
- Spring Boot and Java offered a robust backend for handling complex business logic, data processing, and secure role-based access.
- Modular API architecture allowed decoupled development and easier future integrations.
Key Initiatives
