Identified Challenges in Production Workflow and Data Visibility

The client faces inefficiencies in tracking the growth, processing, and storage of agricultural equipment components throughout the manufacturing cycle. Their existing system lacks an integrated, user-friendly frontend to facilitate internal tracking by employees, leading to data silos and reduced operational transparency. Additionally, integrating secure authentication and permissions management has proven complex, hindering workflow efficiency.

About the Client

A mid-sized manufacturing company specializing in agricultural equipment, focused on streamlining production workflows and internal tracking processes.

Goals for Implementing an Efficient Internal Tracking System

  • Develop a comprehensive frontend application to replace outdated tracking tools, enabling real-time updates and data visibility for production staff.
  • Ensure seamless integration with the existing backend system with detailed documentation and authentication protocols in place.
  • Implement role-based permissions to accurately reflect user access levels and enhance security.
  • Ensure high code quality through rigorous testing, including end-to-end tests that handle complex authentication scenarios.
  • Facilitate an intuitive user experience based on a consistent UI system, improving staff adoption and operational efficiency.

Core Functional Capabilities for Production Tracking System

  • User authentication with secure login via existing identity provider (ADFS or equivalent).
  • Role-based access control to dynamically adjust UI options based on user permissions.
  • Forms for creating and editing records related to growth, cropping, and storage of equipment components.
  • Listing pages for monitoring all production objects with search and filter capabilities.
  • Detailed views for each production object displaying comprehensive information.
  • Implementation of a component-based UI using a familiar system compatible with previous projects (such as Buefy).
  • Testing strategy incorporating end-to-end tests to verify UI functions, authentication flows, and permission-based content rendering.

Technologies and Architectures for System Development

Vue.js v2 for frontend development
Component-based UI system similar to Buefy for UI consistency
Storybook for UI component development and documentation
Puppeteer and Chromium for handling authentication workarounds during testing

System Integrations and External Dependencies

  • Existing backend API with thorough documentation for data operations
  • Secure authentication provider (e.g., ADFS) for user login and permission management

Performance, Security, and Scalability Expectations

  • Robust role-based permission system ensuring that UI options reflect backend permissions accurately.
  • High code quality with comprehensive testing, including E2E tests, to minimize bugs.
  • Compatibility with secure authentication protocols requiring workarounds for testing environments.
  • System should support scalability to accommodate increased data volume and user load.

Expected Business Benefits from the Tracking Application

The new internal tracking application aims to significantly improve data accuracy, operational transparency, and staff efficiency. By facilitating real-time updates and role-based access, the system is expected to reduce manual data entry errors, accelerate workflows, and enhance security compliance. The implementation is projected to lead to better resource management and increased production oversight, ultimately boosting overall throughput and operational agility.
