Order Fulfillment Dashboard

Real-time order management system for retail operations

Order Fulfillment Dashboard

Project Overview

A comprehensive real-time order fulfillment monitoring system designed for a major Latin American retailer. The application enables operational teams to track, prioritize, and optimize e-commerce order picking processes across multiple store locations, reducing missed delivery windows and improving customer satisfaction.

The Challenge

A leading retail chain in Chile, needed to efficiently manage their omnichannel retail operations that combined both home delivery and click-and-collect fulfillment methods. They faced several challenges:

  • Lack of real-time visibility into order status across multiple stores
  • Difficulty prioritizing orders to meet delivery time windows
  • No centralized system to monitor order picking capacity vs. demand
  • Limited ability to identify at-risk orders requiring intervention
  • Manual processes for handling order reprogramming

The Solution

Real-Time Monitoring
  • Unified view of order status from two backend systems
  • Color-coded status cards showing at-risk orders
  • Automatic data refresh every 5 minutes
  • Time window analysis to flag urgent orders
Order Management
  • Drill-down capabilities for detailed order info
  • Filtering by store, window, delivery type, status
  • Capacity calculation for fulfillment prediction
  • Tools for reprogramming delayed orders
Performance Metrics
  • Store-by-store performance tracking
  • Analysis between delivery types
  • Peak period identification
  • CSV export for further analysis

  • 70% reduction in missed delivery windows
  • Improved labor allocation during peak periods
  • Streamlined order reprogramming process
  • Enhanced visibility into cross-store operations
  • Better customer experience through more reliable order fulfillment

Technologies Used

Ruby on Rails HTML5 CSS3 JavaScript Bootstrap DataTables AJAX PostgreSQL

How it works

  • Data is refreshed automatically every 5 minutes via AJAX
  • Stores and delivery windows are tracked with color-coded status indicators
  • Time-sensitive algorithm identifies at-risk orders based on delivery window analysis
  • Capacity planning calculations predict ability to fulfill remaining orders
  • Reprogramming system allows operations to reschedule orders that can't be fulfilled in time
