Bridge Platform – Digital Supply Chain & EDI Infrastructure

Full-stack Developer · Crayon Consulting AS

Professional engagement

Contributed to the development and rollout of Tradesolution’s Bridge platform — a unified digital ecosystem for supply chain collaboration, transport management, and EDI integration across the Norwegian grocery and hospitality sectors. Focused primarily on designing and building the React-based front-end foundation, while also contributing to the Kotlin backend for the Bridge Transport module, and setting up modern CI/CD and observability in Azure.

Tech & tooling

Mission

Bridge is a digital collaboration platform that connects and streamlines key processes across Norway’s grocery and hospitality sectors — from EDI document exchange to transport execution and analytics.
Within this platform, Bridge Transport serves as a modern transport hub for planning, execution, and follow-up of deliveries, while Bridge Flow provides the EDI infrastructure for data exchange between industry actors.

I worked on both the shared platform foundation and the development of the Bridge Transport module, focusing on the front-end experience and component architecture, while also contributing to backend features implemented in Kotlin.

Highlights

  • Front end – Designed and implemented the component architecture, visual system, and transport workflows using React, SCSS, React Hook Form, TanStack Query, and TanStack Table.
  • Backend contributions – Assisted in developing and maintaining Kotlin/Spring Boot services for trips, route handling, transportation, booking and analytics.
  • CI/CD – Automated builds, linting, testing, and container deployments to Azure Kubernetes Service through Azure Pipelines.
  • Testing – Delivered unit and integration coverage using Jest, JUnit, MockK, Mongock, and TestContainers.
  • Observability – Implemented logging to Datadog and LogRocket. Allowing for real-time insight into the system and tracing events from the frontend to the backend.

Impact

Bridge replaces manual and fragmented processes with a shared, digital infrastructure for the grocery value chain.

  • Bridge Flow reduces administrative workload and costs by standardising EDI communication across the industry.
  • Bridge Transport automates planning and follow-up of deliveries, offering real-time tracking, deviation handling, and performance insights.

The foundations I helped build continue to support ongoing feature development and the expansion of the Bridge ecosystem.
