What are you building next?
Pick the closest commercial situation. The first architecture conversation changes with the operating problem.
Start with a commercially complete storefront
Define the catalogue, product model, content, payments, delivery, support, analytics, and operating owners before theme work expands.
- Platform and catalogue fit
- Critical purchase journeys
- Launch ownership and QA
Commerce leak diagnostic
Find the handoff where revenue or operating trust escapes
Intent disappears between cart, address, payment, and confirmation.
Start with observed behaviour, then inspect the systems and owners behind it.
- Error and recovery states
- Delivery, tax, and payment rules
- Event-to-order reconciliation
Capability explorer
Scope commerce by business capability, not by a page count
A store can be visually complete and operationally unfinished. Explore the work across selling, operating, growth, and measurement before choosing the build boundary.
Sell layer
Customer-facing commerce
Make products understandable, findable, buyable, and supportable across real devices and states.
- Catalogue, variants, bundles
- Search, filters, merchandising
- Cart, checkout, accounts
- B2C, B2B, subscription, marketplace
Primary architecture
One commerce operating system. Four accountable layers.
The platform is only one layer. A durable architecture separates customer experience, transaction rules, operations, and growth intelligence while defining how they exchange data.
Layer 02Commerce core
The rules that make a transaction valid
- Catalogue
- Pricing
- Promotions
- Payment state
- Order state
- Subscriptions
Layer 03Operations
The systems that make the promise real
- Inventory
- ERP / OMS
- Shipping
- Fulfilment
- Returns
- Service desk
Layer 04Growth & intelligence
The feedback loop around demand and loyalty
- SEO & feeds
- Analytics
- CRM
- Lifecycle
- Attribution
- Planning
System of record
Name where each important fact originates and who may change it.
Integration contract
Define event, payload, timing, retries, idempotency, and failure ownership.
Reconciliation
Prove that customer, payment, order, stock, and finance outcomes still agree.
Platform decision engine
Choose the architecture your team can operate
Shopify, WooCommerce, headless, and custom commerce are implementation paths—not maturity levels. Compare them through business fit, operating advantage, and the responsibilities they create.
Best considered when
Teams that value managed infrastructure, a mature app ecosystem, and faster operating setup.
Operating advantage
Reduces platform maintenance and provides a dependable managed commerce core.
Plan for
App cost, theme constraints, data boundaries, and custom workflow fit need an honest lifecycle review.

Shopper experience & CRO
Conversion is the quality of the whole promise
CRO is not a collection of pressure tactics. It is clearer product choice, reliable states, accessible interaction, credible delivery information, and measurement that distinguishes friction from changed intent.
Connect UI/UX design to the commerce journeyFind the right product
Taxonomy, collection logic, useful search, filters, variants, comparison, and product information work as one discovery system.
Buy without uncertainty
Cart, address, delivery, tax, discount, payment, validation, error, and confirmation states are designed for real conditions.
Continue after payment
Order lookup, notifications, delivery context, returns, refunds, support, replenishment, and consented retention stay connected.
Integration & operations map
Connect the systems that own the next action
Integrations are business handoffs expressed in software. Each one needs an owner, expected timing, failure path, and reconciliation check—not only credentials and a happy-path API call.

Delivery, migration & replatforming
Change the system without gambling the trading day
The delivery plan follows customer journeys and operational dependencies. Migration adds data profiling, SEO preservation, rehearsal, reconciliation, cutover, rollback, and monitored stabilisation.
- 01
Frame the operation
Map buyers, catalogue, markets, channels, fulfilment, tax, payments, service, data, constraints, and the business case for change.
- 02
Choose the boundaries
Define platform fit, sources of truth, interface responsibilities, integration contracts, security, measurement, and release strategy.
- 03
Build the critical path
Deliver representative products and journeys first, including failure states and operational handoffs—not only ideal screens.
- 04
Migrate and reconcile
Profile data, preserve SEO value, rehearse transformations, validate totals and relationships, and keep a clear rollback path.
- 05
Prove trade readiness
Test catalogue, checkout, payment, order, fulfilment, returns, analytics, accessibility, security, performance, and support ownership.
- 06
Operate and improve
Monitor errors and business exceptions, govern releases, review the app and integration estate, and prioritise evidence-led improvements.
Repository-verified proof
Commerce systems documented beyond the storefront
These published records support specific downstream order, recovery, and retention workflows. They do not imply one platform or architecture is right for every store.
