Fractional CIO Optimizes Client E-Commerce Site with Customized Solutions

Working with a Costly, High-Maintenance System

A prospective client approached Thriveon with a distinctive need: delivering contract templates to customers that could be dynamically updated as regulations changed. Although their custom-built system provided this functionality, maintaining it was becoming increasingly expensive. Beyond the financial burden, their existing system presented major security concerns. Because customers needed access to update templates, unauthorized changes were slipping through, causing data integrity issues. Frequent updates to the system often resulted in outages, frustrating customers and ultimately impacting revenue.

A Smarter, Scalable Approach to their E-Commerce

Recognizing these pain points, Thriveon’s Fractional CIO stepped in, engaging in deep discussions with the client to fully understand their e-commerce environment and business needs. Through this process, we identified opportunities to enhance security, streamline operations and reduce maintenance costs. We developed site mockups and a clear scope of work to re-platform their system, and we brought in a skilled web development resource to execute the project at a lower cost than they were already spending to maintain their existing solution.

The impact was immediate:

• Reduced overhead — less labor required to maintain the system
• Improved security — stronger controls eliminated unauthorized changes
• Greater stability — fewer outages meant better customer experience and increased revenue protection
• Enhanced scalability — a future-ready system that could grow with their business
