Winning Rolls-Royce, GE Aviation, and Bentley Motors with one platform
Industry: Aerospace & Automotive Manufacturing
Clients Onboarded: GE Aviation, Bentley Motors, Rolls-Royce (Airbus in progress)
Platform: Multi-tenant, multi-platform (Web + Mobile)
Competing at the Top of the Industrial World
In-factory logistics is a $40+ billion global market — and the companies that manage it for aerospace and automotive giants like Rolls-Royce, GE Aviation, and Bentley Motors play at the highest level of operational precision. Getting a pallet to the wrong assembly station isn't a minor inconvenience. It's a production stoppage that can cost millions per hour.
The Challenge: Operations Without a Brain
Our client operated factory logistics for some of the world's most demanding manufacturers — but without a standardised digital platform. Every site ran differently. There was no uniform way to measure efficiency, no common KPI framework, and no product they could bring to new client pitches as proof of capability.
The commercial consequences were severe: without a platform, they couldn't bid for new in-factory logistics contracts with confidence. They were winning work on reputation, not demonstrable, systematic capability. Off-the-shelf solutions evaluated by Shvintech and the client jointly — failed to meet the domain complexity. The decision was made to build.
The Build: A Purpose-Made Platform for Factory Operations
Shvintech built IFL as a multi-platform, multi-tenant solution — one that could serve multiple clients, at multiple sites, with different requirements, from a single codebase. The core modules were designed around the actual operational heartbeat of a factory floor:
The platform was flexible enough to integrate with customer and supplier systems, dramatically reducing implementation time for new client onboarding. What once took months of custom integration work now takes weeks.
The Impact: A Platform That Opens Doors
The strategic impact of IFL extended far beyond operational improvement. It gave our client a credible, demonstrable product to take into competitive bids. The result: three of the world's most prestigious manufacturers signed on.
“"IFL didn't just solve our operational challenges — it became the reason we won new business. Rolls-Royce, GE Aviation, Bentley — those conversations changed when we had a platform to show, not just a story to tell."”
