Transforming Redline Garage Gear's Business with a Tailored 2D Design and Quote Generation Tool

How We Helped Redline Garage Gear Boost Sales and Save Time with a Custom 2D Design Tool

At Potenza Global Solutions, we’re all about crafting solutions that not only meet the needs of our clients but also make their day-to-day operations smoother. Today, I’d love to share a success story that highlights just how a tailored web application can transform a business.

Redline Garage Gear

Redline Garage Gear is a US-based company that manufactures custom cabinets and storage systems. They have a team of designers, dealers, and salespeople who are key to their business. However, most of these users weren’t very tech-savvy, making it a challenge for them to create cabinet designs and generate accurate quotes efficiently.

The Challenge

The company needed a web-based solution that would allow designers to easily create 2D cabinet designs. These designs needed to be simple, quick, and intuitive, even for those with limited technical skills. The system also had to generate accurate quotes based on the design and offer the ability to print both the design and the quote.

Redline Garage Gear’s needs included:

• A tool that allowed for easy cabinet design with features like scaling, rotating, and undo-redo.

• A way for designers to save their work, which could only be accessed by them.
• Admin access to all designs.

• Automatic quote generation based on the selected components.
• The ability to export designs and quotes as PDFs or spreadsheets.

The Solution We Delivered

We built a custom web application that addressed every one of these needs. Here’s how:

• User Authentication: We set up a secure login system so each designer and admin had the right level of access to the data they needed.
• 2D Design Tool: The tool is intuitive, allowing users to drag and drop components to create customized cabinet designs. They can scale, rotate, and adjust the images, all with just a few clicks.
• Automatic Quote Generation: Once a design is created, the system automatically generates a detailed quote based on the products/components used in the design. The quote also includes complex pricing logic to ensure everything is calculated accurately.
• Revision History: Designers can make multiple revisions of both their designs and quotes, and the system keeps track of all changes.
• Export Options: The design and quote can easily be exported to PDF or spreadsheet, making it simple to share with customers or print out.

Key Features

• User Login: Secure authentication for role-based access (designers, admins, etc.).
• Drag-and-Drop 2D Design Tool: Simple yet powerful tool for creating customized cabinet designs.
• Quote Management: Create, edit, and track revisions of quotes with full revision history.
• Data Management: A simple interface for managing products, company details, and employee info.

Tech Stack

• ASP.NET 4.0 (C#)
• HTML5, jQuery
• MS SQL Server 2012
• Ajax-enabled WCF Services

The Results: How It Made a Difference

The custom solution we built has made a big impact on Redline Garage Gear’s business.

Here’s how:

• Faster Design and Quote Generation: Designers can now create designs and generate quotes in less than 10 minutes – a process that used to take hours.
• Increased Sales: With quicker quotes and more accurate pricing, Redline Garage Gear has seen a 20% increase in conversion rates from design to sale.
• Time Savings: The automation has saved the company over 300 hours per month in manual work, letting their team focus on more important tasks.
• Better Customer Experience: Customers now get fast, accurate quotes, which has led to improved customer satisfaction and higher retention rates.
• Scalable Solution: The system is built to grow with the company, so Redline Garage Gear can easily onboard more designers and expand without any headaches.

This project was a perfect example of how the right technology can solve real-world business problems. By simplifying the design and quote generation process, we have helped Redline Garage Gear save time, increase sales and improve their customer experience.
