As Kinaxis transitioned RapidResponse from its legacy Java client to a web-based platform, the project introduced entirely new user experiences. This shift created the perfect opportunity to develop Parcel, a design system focused on reducing bugs, simplifying development, and creating a consistent, modern interface.

By standardizing components and patterns, Parcel enabled designers and developers to work more efficiently and deliver a seamless user experience across the platform.

expanding Parcel, an in-house design system

As RapidResponse transitioned from a legacy Java client to a web-based platform, Parcel served as the foundation for a consistent, modern interface.

The design system was expanded to increase its component library and support teams across the platform.

building a stronger foundation

New components and patterns were added to Parcel, covering a broader range of UI elements.

This expansion enabled designers and developers to create features efficiently while maintaining consistency.

making the system clear and accessible

The style guide was updated with new components, states, and usage guidelines, providing clear instructions that helped teams implement components correctly and maintain a unified user experience.

bridging design and development

Close collaboration with developers ensured that new components were functional, reliable, and aligned with design standards.

This approach improved handoff and reduced errors during implementation.

extending across products

Parcel now supports the main web client, machine learning applications, integration mini-apps, and visualizations. The expanded system maintained consistency across all products and teams.

creating lasting impact, design with intention

The enhancements strengthened Parcel as a scalable resource, accelerating development, ensuring consistent interfaces, and serving as a central reference for all teams.

The system continues to grow, helping create polished, reliable user experiences across Kinaxis.
