Indopaket 3PL Operations Platform
Frontend architecture · Operational UI systems
Land and air shipments take different paths. I built the frontend that helps operations teams work through both.
A little context
Indopaket 3PL is an internal logistics platform for land and air shipment operations, used by operational teams and logistics partners. Teams use it to check shipment status, review tracking history, and access operational reports.
My part: Frontend architecture, operational interfaces, form and workflow design, error and empty states, role-aware navigation, data integration, and testing setup.
Collaboration: I worked with backend engineers, Product, and Operations teams to translate operational requirements into usable interfaces.
I’ve simplified the workflows and roles here to keep internal information private.
Where things got tricky
Land and air shipments follow different steps, and some information arrives after work has already started. Operators need to see the current stage and know which actions are available.
Darat vs Udara
Darat
Land Shipment
- More linear workflow
- Fewer status transitions
- Complete operational data expected earlier
Operational flow
- Shipment recorded
- In transit
- Completed
Udara
Air Shipment
- Multi-stage shipment workflow
- Flight data may initially be incomplete
- Status actions depend on the current stage
Shipment progression
- Arrival recorded
- Transit information updated
- Delivery evidence confirmed
Core Workflow
- Authenticated operational user
- Role-relevant workspace
- Shipment mode
Land
Linear shipment workflowAir
Multi-stage shipment workflow- Arrival recorded
- Transit information updated
- Delivery evidence confirmed
- Only valid actions are available at each stage.
- Workflow progression follows operational sequence.
- Incomplete early-stage information is handled safely.
The choices behind the screens
Nielsen #1
Visibility of System Status
- Operational risk
- Operators cannot confidently identify a shipment’s current stage.
- Design response
- Live statistics and state-specific actions make the next step visible.
Nielsen #5
Error Prevention
- Operational risk
- Actions taken out of sequence can lead to operational errors.
- Design response
- Guided progression makes valid next steps clear at each stage.
Nielsen #2
Match With the Real World
- Operational risk
- One generic workflow cannot represent both land and air operations.
- Design response
- Separate flows reflect linear land and multi-step air shipments.
Nielsen #3
User Control and Freedom
- Operational risk
- Actions unrelated to an operator’s work make it harder to choose the right next step.
- Design response
- Each workspace shows the tasks and actions relevant to the operator’s responsibilities.
Nielsen #4
Consistency and Standards
- Operational risk
- Rules and form behavior can diverge across shipment features.
- Design response
- Shared domain hooks and config-driven validation keep behavior consistent.

Same Destination, Different Steps
Land and air shipments don’t move through the same sequence. Some information arrives partway through the work, and the next action depends on both the shipment stage and the person handling it. One generic flow would have a lot of explaining to do.
I kept the workflows separate, with actions tied to the current stage and the operator’s role. Underneath, they share validation and domain logic.
That leaves more interface paths to maintain. Shared rules help keep the behavior consistent while leaving room for the differences that matter in each operation.
This is the reasoning behind the implemented version. I don’t have a prototype-to-test revision history to share here, or usability results that show how well it works for operators yet.
Selected Interface Screens
I can’t share the product screens publicly. The diagrams above are a simplified look at the workflows and the choices behind them.
Architecture and Reliability
- Validation & field mapping
- Custom API client
- Backend APIs
Testing Strategy
I set up unit and component tests with Vitest, Testing Library, and jsdom, alongside ESLint, Prettier, and lint-staged for routine code checks.
The testing priorities are form validation, state-dependent actions, and loading, empty, and error states—the interactions that help operators understand what they can do next.
Before vs After
Previous experience
Before
- No unified operational interface
- Shipment rules handled manually
- No role-specific interface
- Higher risk of out-of-sequence actions
- Limited operational visibility
Production experience
After
- One platform for land and air workflows
- Valid transitions guided by the interface
- Role-based navigation and actions
- Sequential shipment progression
- Real-time dashboard and tracking history
What’s there, and what I still want to learn
The platform brings together land and air workflows, role-aware navigation, tracking history, and shared validation. Actions follow the shipment stage, so the interface can show what’s available next.
The testing setup covers form validation and interface states. I don’t have operational error rates, task-time comparisons, or usability-test results to share here.
Next, I’d like to observe operators working through both shipment types, especially when information is missing or an action isn’t available yet. Does the screen explain enough? Or does someone still need to ask a colleague? Those moments would tell me where to focus.
What stayed with me
This was my first deep dive into 3PL operations. It made me pay much closer attention to what a screen lets someone do, and when. A button can look perfectly fine and still be the wrong next step. That lesson stayed with me.
What I’d explore next
Reconciliation (Recon)
Explore a simpler way for teams to see reconciliation status and find items that need follow-up. Conceptual exploration — not yet shipped.
Mobile Documentation
Explore capturing and reviewing documentation on a phone. The flow below is a concept; operational details have been simplified.
Conceptual future flow — not yet shipped.
- Capture photo
- Optimize image
- Add relevant context
- Review information
- Submit documentation
