Systems Integration

Fulfilment

Match your delivery options to customer expectation and outperform your competitors with increased fulfilment options & flexibility.

Multi-address Delivery

Allow customers to split orders to multiple delivery addresses meaning they can send materials to multiple sites from a single online order saving huge amounts of time on admin. Can also split items by availability (ship those in stock now and those on back order when available) or fulfilment type.

Fulfilment types

Offer customers a vast range of delivery options such as same day, next day, or 2-3 day, alongside Click & Collect/Reserve. By combining fulfilment types on an order you can even drop ship products direct from your suppliers.

Local Delivery

Route online orders to the nearest trade counter and fulfil them from branch stock. Delivery areas can be assigned to a branch and different costs associated with each relevant delivery type. Stock can even be moved between branches to fulfil orders if required.
