Antylia Scientific

Self-Service for Environmental Express, Powered by Shift7 Rocket Commerce

Overview

Antylia Scientific, a leading manufacturer of laboratory and industrial fluid handling products and supplies, sells their products under a variety of brand names including Environmental Express. Their previous online customer experience needed modernizing, including:

  • An online-catalog website experience built on dated technology left customers frustrated and unable to find what they were looking for, without ability to show pricing or offer secure checkout
  • No integration with Salesforce CRM left sales without any insight into customer online behavior
  • An unsupported on-premise PIM was the single system of record for customer-facing product information

 

Solution

  • Designed an improved Information Architecture for Environmental Express, for dramatic improvements in user ability to navigate site content and discover products
  • Built a personalized self-service portal experience using Salesforce B2B Commerce for EnvironmentalExpress.com
  • Shift7 Rocket Commerce Accelerator features designed for the manufacturing business model brought the site to life in just 3 months
  • Self-Service Portal is integrated to Cybersource for payment, Vertex for tax, and Boomi middleware for ERP and PIM
  • In other phases of work actively underway: inriver PIM foundation is being built to be a single system of record for product information across Antylia Scientific brands, Salesforce B2B Commerce platform will expand to power customer self-service for other Antylia Scientific brands
