The challenge

• Orora eventually partnered with ENO8 for two challenges and two separate solutions. This solution, Orora’s “Tag Ordering System II” (TOS II), required a complete redesign and rebuild of a mission-critical ecommerce portal used by plant growers who supply plants to the nursery division of a large, national home-improvement retailer.


• Orora needed to provide growers with an updated, more user-friendly ordering portal that would enable them to order millions of custom-printed tags for the plants they supply to the home improvement retailer.


• Significant inherent complexity involved in the incumbent ordering process.


• A successful solution would require complex, intensive integrat ion with multiple — often legacy — backend systems to satisfy all relevant stakeholders (this included both homegrown products as well as third-par ty systems).


• While Orora does have a capable in-house IT department, the unit had neither the bandwidth nor the specific, niche skill-set required to deliver on this solution.
