Providing customers of an e-commerce services company access to chemical data
 
 
The customer
A pioneer in e-commerce services in the chemical industry. The client provides one of the best online solutions to its customers.
 
The challenge
The customer wanted to create a system where clients were provided access to technical data regarding various chemicals. Till then the whole process of requesting a solution and receiving the final configured chemical formulation was done manually using phone and fax. The customer realized that clients expected instant solutions for estimation and formulation of chemical products. Since competition was fast catching up, they had to react quickly to ensure clients got their configured solutions in the shortest possible time.
 
The solution

Wipro recommended using the web to process customer's access to technical data, estimation and formulation of the solution. The Wipro team designed a set of problem-solving tools involving complex mathematical models. They are known as "Technical Wizards".

A technical wizard is an interactive technical support tool that takes inputs from the customer who logs in, computes the complex data and generates the desired solution for him. Technical wizards do the back-end calculation to ensure that the results of configuration of chemicals are accurate. The entire process takes place online at real-time speed.

As web based technical wizards are largely self-service technical tools, the technical people / scientists now concentrate on innovative work. They are free from the otherwise mundane activity of calculating and providing technical information that is now automated through the Wipro designed technical wizards.

Wipro has designed and developed the wizards with adherence to global standards for future multi lingual support. By using standard and reusable templates, the development time per wizard has been reduced from 4 months to 1-½ months.
