Whites Powersports

Constraints and a broad objective create the best environment for creativity.

Y5 was approached by Ian Johnson with an idea: Could we automate the information needed to manage purchasing for Whites Powersports?

Expectations and timeframe were set. Y5’s background across big data, design and delivering what is needed (nothing more) helped us navigate through the challenges in this project. Y5 produced a design and deployed the first prototype within two weeks.

Dexter builds on a custom library developed over summer 2019/2020 after nearly a decade of research. It queries over 5 million records and creates a real-time analytics platform in the browser. Inventory and sales demand across warehouses can be merged to generate purchase orders for the whole group.

After the first version, Dexter went through several changes and will continue to adapt to best fit Whites Powersports. A set of improvements was signed off last week and we’re in the middle of developing these additions.

The custom analytics platform that powers Dexter is subscription free and already incorporated into several Y5 solutions for clients.
