The challenge

    The main challenge to growth and scaling was a fragmented backend system that supported the sales channels and an unstable infrastructure. The customer faced the following issues:

  • There were no standardized deployment processes
  • Changes and updates required significant effort and added risks to product stability
  • There was no transparent system health monitoring

All these limitations made localization difficult, impacted business performance and user experience . Without reliable infrastructure, the brand struggled to deliver consistent experiences across markets – it was weakening its ability to act like a fully integrated player in the regions.

On top of that, the customer essentially lacked fully functional technical support at that time - there was no central team, and changes and incidents were handled in an unsystematic manner. This led to delays in updating content in the mobile app and limited flexibility in product development, that could negatively affect the overall user experience.

The solution

At a glance

Itransition’s team quickly took over technical support of the client’s ecommerce solutions without disrupting their business workflows, created a systematic improvement strategy after consultations and existing products analysis, and delivered required enhancements and new features.

Support and enhancements

    Our team was responsible for supporting:

  • Backend system of collections and data management
  • Application infrastructure
  • iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) applications

In addition to routine support and maintenance, Itransition acted as both a consultant and a technical partner. We helped the customer streamline operational workflows, advised on data structure and collection update processes, and shared best practices across backend, DevOps, and mobile support.

The application infrastructure was hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS) and deployed across multiple regions to meet availability and redundancy requirements. Early in the project, our team ran a comprehensive audit of AWS resources. After the first iteration, the infrastructure costs decreased by approximately $1,050 per month, and subsequent costoptimization efforts resulted in a further $900 per month reduction while maintaining stability and performance.

    As part of Level 2 support, the DevOps team completed a phased stabilization of the infrastructure:

  • Audited the current state of the infrastructure and processes
  • Established a manageable and predictable environment for safe operation
  • Configured and standardized CI/CD pipelines, resulting in fewer manual operations, lower risk of deployment errors and faster implementation of changes
  • Implemented continuous monitoring of key infrastructure metrics and system’s health
  • Applied best practices for updating infrastructure components
  • Developed monthly checklists for infrastructure analysis and updates
  • Modernized severely outdated databases

New features implementation

Itransition’s team delivered the following new functionality:

  • Discount on items added to the cart
    increased the average order value, encouraging extra purchases, and reduced cart abandonment by motivating customers to complete their order right away
  • Availability of promo codes directly in the cart
    created a powerful new marketing channel for targeted promotions for different segments. It also helped bring in partners through cross-promotions with bloggers and other brands
  • Expansion of delivery zones (from 2 to ~60 countries)
    opened access to the global market, positioned the company as an international player and strengthened brand recognition
  • The "Outfit of the Week" category on the main screen
    motivated clients to buy a complete look rather than single items. This significantly increased the order value and cross-selling and reinforced the brand's positioning as a style expert. It also helped clients solve the problem of matching items. In addition, our customer boosted sales of slowselling items by incorporating them into a striking bundle with best‑selling items
  • Custom push notifications
    increased user engagement and drove more sales
  • Map integration
    visualized delivery zones and estimated arrival times, allowing our customer to speed up deliveries and improve distribution efficiency
  • Advanced mobile app analytics
    empowered the customer with deep insights into users’ behavior and market dynamics
