Published purpose

This project will provide the foundation of technology required for scalable growth of MapSherpa's growing map printing business. Growth of this area of the business has been exceptionally rapid within the past 12 months and is expected to continue. However, most processes supporting this are completed manually - with very cumbersome processes for gleaming data intelligence from the growing volumes of map sales metrics. By automating these processes, and providing tools for more easily extracting product data - the company will be able to grow more quickly, predictably and profitably into the future.
