The CST Goods-In System streamlines inventory management and customer check-in in a UK logistics operation. It was built to address inefficiencies in supply chain operations — primarily fragile manual processes, slow check-ins, and unclear damage reporting.

I developed a React Native mobile client backed by a FastAPI + Python service, integrated with ConnectWise REST APIs for data management. The backend ran on Render with Sentry for observability and Swagger-validated APIs; the client was built with Expo and Gluestack UI, deployed to the App Store. Processing times dropped by 80% and API response times went from 500ms to 200ms.

Summary

CST Goods-In is an internal operations system for inventory, deliveries, visitor check-ins, device handling, and damage reporting.

What The Client Needed

The business needed faster goods-in processing and clearer records for deliveries, exceptions, and front-desk activity.

What I Built

  • A mobile app for goods-in and reception workflows.
  • Damage reporting with photo capture.
  • Delivery and inventory handling flows.
  • Backend APIs connected to existing business systems.

Workflow

Result

The system reduced manual coordination and helped staff process operational tasks faster.

What This Shows

This project shows how internal tools can create real operational improvements when they match the workflow.
