Project thinking
From brief to working system
The decisions behind the interface matter as much as the final screen.
Taking over and moving from OpenCart 1.5 to 3
The existing store contained products, categories, customers and orders that had to be preserved. The new foundation was designed after mapping this data and the real management requirements.
- Product and category migration
- Customer and order preservation
- A new responsive technical foundation
Architecture for a large technical catalogue
Categories and filters by brand, wattage, type and technical attributes help professionals and consumers narrow thousands of options quickly.
- More than 10,000 products
- Multi-criteria filters
- Structure for lighting, security and electrical supplies
Search, options and commercial data
Autosuggest, product options and consistent presentation of prices and specifications reduce friction in a catalogue where accuracy matters.
- Autosuggest search
- Product options
- Offers and price lists
A foundation for operations and SEO
CSV updates, manageable categories and SEO-friendly product pages allow the team to maintain the catalogue without making every change dependent on development.
- Bulk CSV updates
- Category and product SEO
- Controlled day-to-day management
Delivered value
What the solution connects
The outcome is described through delivered capabilities—not invented performance figures.
Products, customers and orders moved to the new installation
Filters and search organise a very large technical catalogue
Bulk updates and an SEO-ready structure support ongoing operations
The upgrade protected existing commercial data while creating a new foundation for the catalogue.
The migration was treated as the takeover of an active store—not simply as the installation of a new theme.
