01 — Executive Summary

Transforming MK360 into a Full-Scale Digital Marketplace

MK360 is Egypt's trusted provider of POS devices, spare parts, field services, and consumables for the retail and banking sectors. This proposal outlines the development of a complete backend system that will transform the existing frontend website into a fully functional, enterprise-grade e-commerce marketplace.

Our solution preserves the existing frontend design pixel-for-pixel while powering it with a robust Laravel backend, MySQL database, RESTful API layer, and a comprehensive admin dashboard for complete business operations control.

The platform will support the full product lifecycle — from catalog management and dynamic pricing, to cart operations, checkout with Cash on Delivery, quote requests for high-value items, order fulfillment, and shipping zone management — all controlled through an intuitive, custom-built admin panel.

🎯 Key Objectives

  • Full backend for existing frontend
  • Professional admin dashboard
  • Complete marketplace engine
  • Two-factor authentication
  • Role-based access control
  • Request Quote system
  • Shipping & delivery management
