Angular Minds transformed Cirba Solutions' Toyota battery operations from scattered SharePoint lists and manual spreadsheets into a modern, purpose-built inventory management platform. Built for North America's leading battery materials and management company, the platform now provides real-time tracking of battery inventory across dealers, streamlined shipment and delivery management, and complete audit trail compliance. Delivered within a couple of months, this digital transformation eliminated manual coordination overhead and gave operations teams instant visibility into the entire battery lifecycle.
Cirba Solutions required a robust inventory management system to track Toyota batteries across their dealer network, manage shipments and deliveries, and maintain comprehensive audit trails for compliance purposes.
Angular Minds partnered with Cirba Solutions to design and build this platform from the ground up, transforming their vision into a production-ready system that serves dealers, operations teams, and leadership with real-time inventory intelligence.
Before this platform, Cirba Solutions managed their entire Toyota battery operations through SharePoint and manual processes. As their operations scaled, several critical challenges emerged:
Battery inventory data was scattered across SharePoint lists, spreadsheets, and email threads, making it difficult to get a unified view of operations.
Operations teams lacked real-time insight into battery inventory levels, shipment statuses, and delivery progress across their dealer network.
Coordinating with dealers on inventory allocation, shipment requests, and deliveries required extensive manual effort and back-and-forth communication.
Tracking changes, maintaining audit trails, and ensuring regulatory compliance was challenging with disconnected tools.
SharePoint-based workflows couldn't scale efficiently as the dealer network and battery volumes grew.
Cirba Solutions needed a centralized, purpose-built platform to bring structure, visibility, and efficiency to their battery management operations.
The Transformation
See how we replaced fragmented tools with a unified, purpose-built system.
Fragmented data across multiple tools
Unified platform with real-time visibility
From day one, our goal was to build a scalable, secure, and intuitive platform tailored to the battery lifecycle management domain. We focused on four core principles:
Every feature was designed with operations teams and dealers in mind, ensuring workflows match real-world processes.
Live dashboards and instant updates across inventory, shipments, and deliveries to enable proactive decision-making.
Built to serve multiple user types - from dealers managing their inventory to executives reviewing analytics.
Role-based access control, comprehensive audit logging, and secure data handling throughout.
We built a centralized platform that provides end-to-end visibility and control over Toyota battery inventory operations. Key capabilities include:
The platform serves multiple personas, from dealers and operations teams to finance and executive leadership.
The platform provides comprehensive analytics to help operations and leadership teams understand inventory patterns, shipment volumes, and delivery performance.
Interactive dashboards display key metrics including:
These insights enable faster decision-making and help identify optimization opportunities across the battery management lifecycle.
A core capability of the platform is its comprehensive dealer management system, designed to streamline coordination across the dealer network.
Centralized dealer information with contact details, assigned inventory, and activity history.
Flexible allocation system to assign battery inventory to specific dealers based on demand and capacity.
Dealers can view their allocated inventory, track incoming shipments, and confirm deliveries through a dedicated interface.
Automated notifications and status updates reduce manual coordination overhead between operations teams and dealers.
The platform provides complete visibility into the shipment and delivery lifecycle:
Streamlined workflows for creating shipments with automatic inventory updates.
Real-time status updates from shipment initiation through transit to delivery.
Dealer-side confirmation workflows with timestamp tracking and audit logging.
Complete shipment and delivery history with filtering and export capabilities.
Security and compliance were foundational requirements for this platform:
Granular permissions ensure users only access data relevant to their role - dealers see their inventory while administrators have full visibility.
Every action is logged with user, timestamp, and change details. Configurable retention policies support compliance requirements.
JWT-based authentication with session management, account lockout protection, and secure password handling.
Multi-tenant architecture ensures complete data isolation between organizations.
Designed as a modern cloud-native platform, the architecture supports:
The infrastructure is ready to scale as Cirba Solutions' operations grow.
The impact has been measurable across multiple dimensions:
Transformed fragmented SharePoint lists and manual spreadsheets into a unified, purpose-built system.
Operations teams now have instant access to inventory levels, shipment statuses, and delivery progress.
Automated notifications and self-service dealer portal significantly reduced manual coordination effort.
Comprehensive audit trails provide confidence in regulatory compliance and operational accountability.
Analytics dashboards enable leadership to identify trends and make data-driven decisions quickly.
By centralizing battery inventory operations, the platform enables Cirba Solutions to move from reactive management to proactive operational excellence.
This engagement demonstrates Angular Minds' ability to:
This project showcases how we help clients move beyond SharePoint and spreadsheet limitations to gain operational excellence through purpose-built technology.
The platform provides a strong foundation for future enhancements as Cirba Solutions' needs evolve. Potential roadmap items include:
