DX solution leader ToBeSoft (CEO Lee Kyung-chan) is seeing results from its carefully developed e-commerce integrated solution business. The company has signed contracts for the first and second phases of the BuyKorea advancement project with the Public Procurement Service and was selected for the ‘Promising SaaS Development and Nurturing Support Project’ by the National IT Industry Promotion Agency (NIPA), continuing its series of contract wins. ToBeSoft plans to focus its capabilities in the second half of the year to expand the ToBeMall business.


On the 17th, ToBeSoft announced that it recently signed a contract worth 2.5 billion KRW with the Seoul Regional Public Procurement Service for the 'B2B Platform BuyKorea 1st and 2nd Phase Advancement Project.' This project involves building an integrated e-commerce platform that includes ToBeSoft’s proud B2B solutions such as the quick code development platform 'Nexacro,' the cloud-based e-commerce platform 'ToBeMall,' and the smart access control system 'V-PASS.'


Earlier in June, ToBeSoft was also selected for the ‘Promising SaaS Development and Nurturing Support Project’ hosted by NIPA. The company is conducting a research project to convert the standalone installation solution ToBeMall into a multi-tenant based SaaS service, which will be completed by the end of this year.


Through this research project, ToBeSoft is expected to receive a research and development budget of 464 million KRW. The ToBeMall platform is anticipated to evolve by adopting the recent e-commerce trend of headless commerce, allowing administrators to freely change the UI/UX according to consumer preferences.


Additionally, ToBeSoft is building various achievements, such as constructing the pet health checkup platform 'MiroPet' site based on ToBeMall. The company explains that these results are due to providing customer-tailored solutions based on the cloud-based e-commerce construction platform. In particular, the cost-effectiveness of 'ToBeMall' has been a key strength in securing clients.


A ToBeSoft representative said, "We are achieving results in the e-commerce field centered on the 'ToBeMall SaaS platform' business, an integrated e-commerce solution that ToBeSoft has been recognized for its strengths."


'ToBeMall' is a cloud-based integrated e-commerce solution developed since 2017. It focuses on platformizing the necessary functions for customers who want to operate online shopping malls at an affordable price and with ease of operation.


It provides a development environment capable of building B2C and B2B shopping malls regardless of the type, such as independent malls, tenant malls, or open malls. Depending on customer circumstances and requirements, it offers the convenience of independent construction without being tied to specific cloud platforms like Amazon Web Services (AWS) or Oracle Cloud (OCI).


Moreover, its competitiveness lies in the ability to design and build optimized services according to customer industries and sizes, with potential for future expansion. It is also noted as a solution that can create highly complete shopping malls in a short period based on the technological expertise accumulated in the UI/UX development platform field.



Lee Kyung-chan, CEO of ToBeSoft, said, "ToBeMall offers both reasonable functions and pricing to consider when adopting an e-commerce platform, enabling cost reduction and increased efficiency, and allowing the creation of highly complete shopping malls in a short time. We will continue to focus our capabilities in the second half of the year to expand our e-commerce business and solidify our market position as a core company leading DX (digital transformation)."
