Digital System Transformation

Role: Product & Systems Leadership

A connected business operations platform bringing customer records, sales orders, production, payments, service operations, reporting and team workflows into one coordinated system.

Furniture operations involve multiple interdependent stages: managing customer information, multi-item orders, delivery commitments, production progress, outstanding balances, and long-term after-sales service.
