L’Oreal implemented marking of products based on "iDocs: Marking" in a cloud platform of Mail.ru Cloud Solutions

2020: Setup and adaptation of the solution "iDocs: Marking"

Corus Consulting Group announced on December 11, 2020 project completion on setup and adaptation of the integration solution "iDocs: Marking" in L’Oreal.

Since October 1, 2020 in Russia the requirement of the Government of the Russian Federation about obligatory marking of perfumery products means of identification took effect. The L'Oreal company began advance preparation. It was necessary to find the solution which would automate process of an institution and accounting of codes of marking. The platform of CORUS Consulting Group "was for this purpose selected by iDocs: Marking" which provides integration and data exchange between infrastructure of L'Oreal and a circuit of the state regulator now.

For creation of infrastructure within the project specialists of Corus Consulting needed the reliable Russian cloud giving the chance in the delivered terms to start the solution. The cloud platform of Mail.ru Cloud Solutions (MCS) with a set of services which automate development and operation of a system meets these requirements. The platform provides the mature platform Kubernetes component on which the architecture "is built by iDocs: Marking", on the PaaS model. Now all set of codes of marking with additional parameters (goods type and so on) is stored in a cloud in PostgreSQL-as-a-Service base.

Rapid implementation allowed to prepare L’Oreal for entry into force of the legislation. For December, 2020 Corus Consulting supports work of the solution, giving technical support: first and third line.

The solution proposed by Corus Consulting within project implementation of obligatory marking of perfumery products, in our opinion is optimal. In it an opportunity as the automated work via the integration solution, so works via the web interface is combined that on start of the project allowed to use the differentiated approach in work with our clients. Separately It should be noted the complexity of a project startup caused as external factors (COVID-19, the shortage of information), and its complexity as it affected work of all organization and also sets of the systems of our partners. Thanks to harmonious work of the general command we could implement the project timely, and since October first we ship to our clients only the marked products, – Andrey Tochenov, the director of a supply chain of L'Oréal Lux notes.

It is not our first project on implementation of systems which help the companies to conform to requirements of the government for obligatory goods marking. The solution deployed in a cloud platform of Mail.ru Cloud Solutions helped us to create quickly a failsafe system and to configure it under specifics of the processes which are already built in the company. In close cooperation with the L'Oréal command we quickly set up the solution 'iDocs: Marking' which allowed the company to be prepared for the introduction of requirements in force in advance, – Natalya Semichastnova, the deputy CEO of CORUS Consulting Group comments.

Speed of development and start of digital products on the market, especially in the context of legislative changes, becomes a key indicator. Long solution deployment in such situation is fraught for business with real loss of profit. Using the MCS platform our partners get access to necessary technologies and computing powers to several clicks and without significant preliminary investments into infrastructure. We are glad that our developments will help L’Oréal to adapt to statutory requirements, – Ilya Letunov, the head of the Mail.ru Cloud Solutions and Tarantool platform supplements.
