Redesigned the operating model and transformed the work of 1.5 million photographers

Employing design and systems thinking, our team opted for the Drupal Commerce distribution platform. Though mainly used for online shops, it was chosen due to its flexibility when combined with the latest business management technologies. Many of the features detected in the business analysis phase indicated that using this platform would cover most of the required operational functionalities as well. Thus, we designed and created an additional layer for business process management (a workflow for filling out new contest forms and a step-by-step process for contests approval) and integrated it with the standard e-commerce modules: shopping cart, order processing, invoicing, payment and delivery processing.
The entire workflow has been completely transformed and is now managed in one unique system where all contests are gathered into a common database that can be easily accessed and managed, with different roles having a different degree of access. Another unique feature is the communication between members: they can communicate both with each other and with groups of people (roles) involved in a certain process. 

Delivery algorithm: a unique feature of this system was a specially designed algorithm created by our team for individual delivery. The delivery process must take into account the area and the number of the delivered awards. The algorithm was based on a chart generated by the Austrian Post and calculates the package size and weight. Thus, the new module determines the size of the package (regardless of the number of items in it), the weight and also calculates the area delivery fee. Due to Drupal's API, this challenge was easily overcome.
