By leveraging a design thinking methodology, Joyalukkas was able to define the core objective of its new digital strategy as well as identify and narrow down its target audience which includes millennials and gold investors.These insights are enabling the company to tailor a uniquely personalized country-specific experience for each of their customers on the new platform.The platform has further been developed as Progressive Web Apps, which deliver a mobile-native experience for customers, providing them further familiarity and ease of use as they browse on their mobile devices.With the cloud-native architecture ensuring scalability and agility, the e-commerce platform will also integrate the company's existing applications like ERP, CRM, inventory management system and others.The platform will also enable Joyalukkas to automate their order and inventory management across their own site as well as on multiple online marketplaces where the company's merchandise is sold- thus bringing in efficiency across channels.These capabilities will be fulfilled by leveraging a host of application plug-ins from the Magento Marketplace to enable additional features using cloud-based APIs.IBM further custom-built a unique product configurator that will enable Joyalukkas to automate the creation of stock-keeping units (SKUs) for easier inventory management across their multiple marketplaces.Built to leverage data and analytics to drive an enhanced customer experience, the e-commerce platform will go live later this year."We wanted the best possible partner to reimagine our e-commerce platform hence we picked IBM for this initiative. Our brick & mortar stores are spread across many countries; however, a strong online presence will help us extend our reach to every nook & corner of the world.
