iFixit struggled with scattered tools, manual workflows, slow processes, and frequent errors. The goal was to build a centralized Admin Panel to streamline operations, improve speed, enhance accuracy, and support business growth.
Some project details are confidential, so the case study focuses on the core improvements and UX/UI design process.
