          Overview

          The story behind the project

          Shipping was handled manually across multiple carrier websites, with no single place to compare rates, book or track — slowing the team and scattering shipment data.

          We built a custom Java Spring Boot carrier app with unified DHL, FedEx and UPS integration, so the team compares, books, labels and tracks every shipment from one screen.
