Komsell: B2B Auto Parts E-Commerce Platform

Client situation

Komsell operates a B2B auto-parts catalogue and sales workflow that depends on product, stock, customer, pricing and order data moving between the storefront and internal systems.

Operational bottleneck

The legacy commerce application constrained catalogue and search workflows, made new sales scenarios difficult to release and left integrations requiring regular operational attention.

Business impact before the project

Catalogue access and OEM-number search were unreliable, changes took too long to deliver, and the operations team had to work across several interfaces while monitoring data exchange manually.

Constraints and systems involved

The new platform had to support an auto-parts catalogue, customer-specific B2B workflows and existing connections with 1C, CRM and marketplace channels while the commercial operation continued.

Digital Kitty’s exact role

We designed and delivered the new commerce architecture, separated the storefront, commerce core and search layer, implemented the system integrations and organised the migration in stages.

Solution and delivery approach

The storefront, commerce core and search service were separated so they could be developed and operated independently. Data exchange connected products, stock, orders and statuses with the surrounding business systems.

• Headless B2B storefront for catalogue and customer workflows
• Dedicated search and filtering layer for the auto-parts catalogue
• Shared integration flow for product, stock, order and status data
• Staged migration with review points between each part of the platform

Verified outcomes

Komsell received a modular B2B commerce platform with a dedicated catalogue search layer and documented connections to the internal and external systems involved in sales operations.
