The Liberty Shoes Replenishment (LSR) System was developed for Liberty Shoes Ltd.
Liberty Shoes produces more than 50,000 pairs of footwear. Products are marketed across the globe
via 150 distributors, 350 exclusive showrooms and more than 6,000 multi-brand outlets. The LSR System
is used by the client, Liberty Shoes, for internal processing as well as for outside clients such as
distributors and showrooms.
The LSR System maximizes client productivity by providing tools to assist in automating demand and
supply systems as well as the product review and delivery process. The system manages a two-way process
between Liberty Shoes and their distributors by maintaining inventory and creating new requirements
in correspondence to sales.
First, the application displays product stock norms for every month, or season for the distributor.
Next, the distributor enters their daily sales. The LSR System automatically maintains inventory thanks to
a set of predefined norms. The system will also check previous requirements and verify the number
of orders executed. Finally, daily sales requirements for every product are compiled for review.
|
Application size and scope |
The LSR System utilizes one Microsoft SQL Server 2005, 33 database tables, and 50 web pages. The products
master table is currently the largest with 30,000 records. The Requirement Generation table will no doubt
be the biggest table in the LSR System over time.
There are an estimated 500 users at this time with more than 100,000 transactions processed monthly.
|
The project |
The project was completed and implemented in two weeks by two developers using Iron Speed Designer.
|
Code extensions and customizations |
We wrote approximately 2,000 lines of code which took approximately one month. We did not incorporate
third-party components into the application.
|
Page layout customizations |
We designed custom pages in the LSR System for administrative and client usage, starting with the standard
Andes page style in Iron Speed Designer.
|
Iron Speed Designer impact |
This project was completed in just one month using Iron Speed Designer. We saved four person-months of development
time and 50% of our projected development cost. While this project could have been accomplished without Iron Speed
Designer, the cost would have doubled and the timeframe increased by an additional five months.
|
Next steps |
We plan to develop another application for this client using Iron Speed Designer.
