A 100% drop-ship parts business, rebuilt on Adobe Commerce.

What it doesA ground-up replatform off a 15-year-old custom system onto Adobe Commerce Cloud: modern cloud infrastructure, CDN, caching, CI/CD with zero-downtime deploys, and monitoring, sized for a catalog of 19,000-plus parts.

Why from scratchThe legacy platform had become a barrier to growth. A supported, scalable foundation was the prerequisite for everything else the business needed to do.

What it doesA Hyva theme and Hyva Checkout front end (Alpine.js and Tailwind), replacing the heavy legacy JavaScript stack, built mobile-first and tuned for Core Web Vitals.

Why from scratchMost parts shoppers arrive on a phone mid-repair. A fast, modern storefront is the difference between finding the part and bouncing.

What it doesA per-vendor cost-per-product model with side-by-side margin visibility at purchase-order creation, a full PO lifecycle, and a vendor self-service portal.

Why from scratchThe same part sits at different costs across distributors. Putting those costs side by side is what lets the team route each order to the most profitable source.

What it doesA custom integration with the Heritage distributor API (token-based REST with automatic refresh) that syncs real-time inventory and cost, submits orders, and pulls order status and shipments.

Why from scratchNo off-the-shelf connector exists. A bespoke module is the only way to pull live stock and cost and push drop-ship orders to this distributor.

What it doesA custom integration with the Baystate distributor API (XML over HTTPS) covering per-warehouse availability, price-group pricing, order creation, and combined order-history and shipment queries.

Why from scratchThis distributor speaks XML across 16-plus warehouses with price-group logic, so the integration parses and maps it into the same inventory and cost model as the others.

What it doesA custom integration with the PoolCorp distributor API (REST with key auth) for branch-level product availability, pricing, order submission, and tracking, where tracking is extracted from the invoice payload.

Why from scratchEach distributor models its data differently. This one carries tracking inside invoices, so the integration normalizes it to a single shipment view.

What it doesA mapping layer of per-vendor SKU attributes that ties each Inyo catalog SKU to the matching part number at each distributor, driving order submission, inventory, and cost sync.

Why from scratchA part has a different identifier at every distributor. The mapping layer is what lets one catalog item buy, stock, and cost across four sources.

What it doesPlugins that hook the PO lifecycle so that approving a vendor order fires a programmatic submission to the right distributor API, then cron jobs poll status and tracking and de-duplicate shipments back into the order.

Why from scratchA 100% drop-ship model can't run on emailed POs. Routing orders to the correct API automatically is what makes fulfillment hands-off and accurate.

What it doesA bidirectional integration with Sage 100 over cloud middleware covering inventory, product cost, order submission, shipment and tracking, invoicing, and returns, establishing the ERP as the financial source of truth.

Why from scratchFinance and the internal warehouse live in Sage. Two-way sync keeps the store and the books in agreement instead of reconciling by hand.

What it doesShipperHQ configured with per-vendor shipping groups, merged multi-origin rates, and estimated delivery dates surfaced on the product page and in checkout.

Why from scratchWhen one cart ships from several warehouses, rates and delivery dates have to merge across origins. Off-the-shelf shipping can't model that.

What it doesA phased migration off the legacy MSSQL platform into Adobe Commerce: products, categories, customers, media, and several years of order history, with a delta cutover plan.

Why from scratchFifteen years of catalog and customer data had to move cleanly, and stay reconcilable through cutover, without disrupting a live business.

What it doesA modern payment gateway integrated into the Hyva checkout, paired with pre-authorization fraud screening that scores orders automatically before they are accepted.

Why from scratchThe team had been reviewing every order for fraud by hand. Automated pre-auth screening removes that manual bottleneck at scale.

What it doesAn interactive hotspot tool on product pages that maps coordinates on a schematic or exploded-diagram image to the child part SKUs, with an admin interface for the team to upload diagrams and tag parts without developers.

Why from scratchPool equipment is bought by diagram, not keyword. Letting a customer click the broken part on a schematic is how a parts retailer turns a repair into a purchase.
