🚀 Featured Case Study

Logistics Optimization & Digital Transformation

Ateneo Celadon: Rose Sale Logistics Platform

The Challenge

For years, the Rose Sale (a massive annual fundraiser) relied solely on Google Forms and disconnected spreadsheets. This manual workflow made real-time inventory tracking impossible and left deliveries prone to human error, with no way to track courier status efficiently.

The Strategic Pivot

While most student organizations settle for basic tools, I identified an opportunity to innovate. I architected a custom ecosystem using Google Web Services—leveraging a tech stack rarely used in this context to bridge the gap between a user-friendly frontend and a familiar GSheet backend.

The Ecosystem Architecture
01
Dynamic Pre-Order Website

Product availability is dynamically synced from a Master GSheet. When an item runs out in the sheet, it instantly updates on the site.

02
Courier Dispatch Portal

I built a bespoke web app for riders to "claim" orders and update statuses (Pending -> Delivered) in real-time, syncing directly to the central dashboard.

03
Two-Way Data Sync

Orders from the site populate the GSheet; updates in the GSheet reflect on the order tracker. A single source of truth for all stakeholders.

04
Live Logistics Dashboard

Organizers view a granular feed of every active delivery, including package content, timestamp, and location—replacing static lists.

The Business Impact

Transformed a manual, error-prone process into a seamless digital operation. This solution is unique in the university landscape, proving that custom tech solutions can drive massive operational efficiency even for student non-profits.
