CL Logistics Manager

The
Challenge

CL Logistics Manager is a full-stack, enterprise-grade logistics and operations management platform built to centralize and streamline supply chain operations for large-scale installation projects. The system manages everything from supplier orders and inbound deliveries to warehouse operations, project installation tracking, and multi-stage approval workflows — all in a single, cohesive platform.

Managing complex installation projects — such as equipping multi-floor apartment buildings with components — requires coordination across multiple teams: procurement, warehouse, logistics, and on-site installation crews. Before this system, operations were fragmented across spreadsheets, emails, and disconnected tools, leading to:

  • No real-time visibility into stock levels or delivery statuses
  • Manual, error-prone label generation and barcode tracking
  • Approval workflows handled over email with no audit trail
  • No centralized reporting for project progress or warehouse inventory
  • Difficult onboarding for new staff due to lack of role-based access control

The
Solution

A purpose-built, full-stack web application that serves as the single source of truth for all logistics and project operations.
Project & Installation Management
  • Hierarchical project structure: Projects → Floors → Apartments → Items
  • Track installation progress per apartment and floor
  • Photo documentation with rich-text notes via an embedded editor
  • Generate per-project completion reports
Warehouse & Inventory Operations
  • Barcode scanning for receiving deliveries and processing transfers
  • Bulk label generation and printing (warehouse labels, pickup labels, pallet labels)
  • Pick-list generation for warehouse staff
  • Real-time inventory tracking across multiple warehouse locations
Multi-Stage Approval Workflows
  • Transfer requests: draft → submit → approve → pickup → close
  • Role-based access: warehouse managers, approvers, and regular staff see different views and actions
  • Full audit trail on all state changes
Supplier & Order Management
  • Manage suppliers and purchase orders
  • Track items from order through delivery to installation
  • Import bulk orders from Excel/CSV; export reports in multiple formats
Async Job Processing
  • Heavy operations (bulk imports, label processing, report generation) run as background jobs via BullMQ + Redis, keeping the UI responsive
Integrations
  • Monday.com — sync project status to existing Monday boards
  • AWS S3 — all file uploads (photos, documents, labels) stored in S3, not on local disk
  • Nodemailer — automated email notifications for approvals, uploads, and errors

Scope &
Scale

  • 100+ REST API endpoints covering all logistics domains
  • 30+ frontend pages with full CRUD and workflow UIs
  • 90+ reusable React components built on Ant Design
  • 3 MySQL databases with 20+ entities across the logistics domain
  • Multi-environment deployment (development, staging & production)
  • Role-based access for warehouse managers, approvers, and staff

The
Outcome

The platform replaced a fragmented, manual process with a single system that gives every team member real-time visibility and the right tools for their role.

From warehouse staff scanning barcodes to project managers reviewing installation progress — everyone operates from one source of truth. Bulk operations that previously took hours of manual spreadsheet work now run as background jobs in minutes, with automated email notifications on completion.
