The 3PL business is low-margin. If you are a fulfillment service provider, you understand the importance of optimizing efficiencies. In order to maximize profitability, it is extremely important to reduce manual touch points in your process. One way to do this is through fulfillment automation. As a result, you are able to run as lean as possible.

The right fulfillment technology is key to reducing these manual touch-points. This allows you to automate your order processing through pre-defined rules.

Fulfillment Billing Pro Tips to Avoid Feeling Like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day!

What Are Your Fulfillment Tech Resolutions for 2019?

January 9, 2019February 20, 2019Sean O'Connor | Vice President - Client Services

Another hectic holiday season is behind us and we can now start tackling the resolutions we made on New Year’s Eve. Many of us have made the predictable resolutions: to lose weight, get in shape, save more, etc. These are certainly worthy personal goals (that we’ll hopefully stick with). But they’re not likely to impact your fulfillment business.

This year, try setting new “fulfillment tech resolutions.” In other words, set goals for improving your fulfillment operation by better leveraging technology. Fulfillment companies rely on various technologies, such as order management systems, warehouse management systems, and shipping systems. Each play a critical role in the success of the business. The beginning of the year is a great time to take a fresh look at your technology. Take some time to explore what (if any) changes could be made to improve your fulfillment operation.
