The operational chain comprised several sequential stages: Initially, the wholesaler sent a part request to the supplier. Upon receipt, the supplier conducted a verification process to ensure the part’s compatibility with the relevant machine, utilizing the VIN for reference. Following this, the supplier communicated with the wholesaler, confirming the availability of the requested goods either within their warehouse or that of a partner.

Upon receiving this clarification, the wholesaler responded accordingly regarding the order. Subsequently, upon approval of the order by the wholesaler for their clientele, they proceeded to request an invoice from the supplier for payment. Once the invoice was generated, the customer was invoiced accordingly, and upon receipt of funds, proceeded to make payment to the wholesaler. Upon confirmation of the payment by the accounting department, the wholesaler’s order was transmitted to the warehouse for fulfillment.

These procedures typically consumed an average of 3-4 days or even longer, involving numerous individuals who were susceptible to errors or oversight. Leveraging their engineering background and business acumen, Eugene and Dias embarked on a mission to streamline the process. They identified the most advanced suppliers in the UAE and sought access to their warehouse accounting systems via API. Subsequently, they acquired a server and established it within a data center in Kazakhstan. This marked the commencement of their software development endeavor, aimed at testing and refining the system with suppliers, customers, and their team members.
After years of diligent effort, Eugene and Dias successfully automated the entire lengthy order process, significantly reducing the required time. Today, thanks to the platform they developed, wholesalers and car owners alike enjoy numerous benefits, including:
Effortlessly selecting spare parts based on VIN, model, brand, or part name, ensuring error-free selection.
Easily locating the best deals from across the globe in record time or at the most competitive prices.
Ordering and payment are now available 24/7 through a variety of methods, including cards and banking applications. Customers can conveniently track the status of their orders and choose a preferred pick-up point for order receipt.
In our journey of cloud solution development, we’ve crafted a platform that facilitates collaboration with B2B clients across 20 cities and 50 locations. This versatile platform serves various purposes: insurance companies utilize it for assessing damages post-accidents, while private entrepreneurs leverage it to establish bespoke online stores for selling auto products without the need for developing an entire automation system.
Expanding our reach, we recently ventured into the GCC/MENA region by establishing a company in the United Arab Emirates. Our presence was further solidified by our participation in the Automechanika exhibition, where we showcased the platform’s potential to prospective partners.
