We are a team of two software engineers looking to create a Shopify App that will help merchants manage their suppliers. A centralized way of keeping track of POs, history of events that happened to the POs, defects, and disputes. Once these data is entered by the users and stored on our side, we hope to produce intuitive analytics in dashboards and report pages for the merchants assess the “performance” of the suppliers. For example, if their performance is dropping then it might be a good sign for the merchants to explore other suppliers.

Nothing has been built yet. We would like just 1 merchant for now to work with and build this product together. We would give bi-weekly progress updates to you and get your feedback to tweak our app. We will provide you a life-time free access to the app as our token of appreciation. Please let me know if you are interested in participating.
