About One Stop Systems

One Stop Systems has built a legacy as a powerhouse in high-performance computing, design, and manufacturing, specifically engineered for the most demanding physical environments. Originally founded to deliver ultra-dense AI transportable computer systems, the brand has become synonymous with rugged technology for defense, deep learning, and industrial infrastructure that requires zero-fault operational performance.

The environment required careful coordination between storefront operations, inventory management, order processing, payment systems, and regional market configurations.

Overview

We successfully executed a strategic enterprise migration and corporate carve-out for One Stop Systems, transitioning their B2B platform onto a standalone Shopify Plus infrastructure. The project decoupled legacy parent dependencies and deployed a localized, multi-market payment architecture with zero downtime.

The Challenge

As a high-volume global enterprise brand, maintaining storefront stability and conversion performance during an environment handoff was entirely non-negotiable. The project faced critical technical complexities:

  • Infrastructure Separation: Transitioning a high-volume live store out of a legacy corporate environment into standalone infrastructure while maintaining seamless domain continuity, SSL integrity, and storefront stability.
  • Legacy Dependency Risks: Auditing, identifying, and removing legacy scripts, middleware connections, app dependencies, and hardcoded environment configurations without disrupting live operations.
  • Multi-Market Continuity: Re-engineering complex localization across 13 active Shopify Markets, including currencies, languages, payments, taxes, and regional operational flows across multiple European jurisdictions.
  • Enterprise Data Migration: Managing large-scale migration and validation of customer, order history, and catalog data under strict continuity and accuracy requirements.
  • Critical Go-Live Coordination: Executing a tightly managed enterprise cutover involving ERP integrations, 3PL operations, payment systems, and compliance tooling while minimizing operational disruption and customer impact.

The Solution

We engineered a risk-mitigated migration framework that decoupled legacy enterprise dependencies and transitioned the brand’s multi-market footprint onto a standalone Shopify Plus architecture with zero downtime.

Shopify Plus Ownership & Setup

Architected and executed a controlled separation of the live Shopify environment from the legacy corporate infrastructure while preserving storefront continuity, domain stability, and customer experience consistency.

Storefront Continuity & Dependency Audits

Performed a full audit and cleanup of legacy scripts, middleware services, third-party integrations, and environment-specific configurations to ensure platform independence and operational stability.

Multi-Market Payments Engineering

Rebuilt and validated localized Shopify Markets configurations across 13 regional markets, including currencies, languages, taxes, payment flows, and market-specific operational logic.

Large-Scale Data Migration Strategy

Managed structured migration and validation processes for customer, order, product, and operational data to ensure historical continuity and data integrity across the new environment.

Enterprise Go-Live Management

Coordinated a phased enterprise cutover involving ERP integrations, fulfillment providers, payment systems, compliance tooling, and launch monitoring with minimal disruption to business operations.

Main Features

  • Shopify Plus Environment Transfer: Absolute structural separation with zero active domain or SSL downtime.
  • 13 Shopify Markets Localized: Full EU localization covering native regional languages, custom currency rules, and international compliance.
  • Shopify Payments Implementation: Complete migration away from Adyen without transactional friction.
  • Record Migration: High-integrity data transfer covering extensive historical customer behaviors and orders.
  • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Sync: Real-time enterprise ERP integration utilizing high-volume Shopify Plus APIs.

The Results

The enterprise carve-out was completed successfully within a tightly managed 9-week timeline with no disruption to the customer shopping experience during cutover. Dickies achieved full operational ownership of its Shopify environment with enterprise eCommerce continuity maintained from Day 1.

By removing legacy corporate dependencies and stabilizing critical operational integrations, the platform was successfully positioned for scalable multi-market operations across Europe. The project delivered a clean infrastructure separation, validated data continuity, localized market readiness, and a stable operational foundation for future growth.
