The problem

Customer and operations dashboards with backend services for parcel lifecycles, tracking events and notifications, built for high-throughput transactional workflows.
South African couples plan across fragmented directories, WhatsApp messages and opaque “price on request” listings, while many international tools don't support local multi-ceremony wedding journeys.
Environment provisioning, session management and resource monitoring, designed for security, multi-tenancy and concurrent workloads.
