Success Story
As an eCommerce 3PL specialising in smaller consumer items, such as clothing and cosmetics, Black Bear Fulfillment are 100% Australian owned and operated. Unlike most 3PL’s they aren’t just focused on the logistics and warehousing side of the business, but also, importantly, the customer. Fulfillment is about people as much as it is logistics, and they needed a software solution to help bring this customer-centric vision to life.

Order Management System FAQ
What is an Order Management System?
An Order Management System enables businesses to manage the lifecycle of an order in a structured format, so everyone involved in the order and fulfillment process can access the information they need to do their part of the job. It tracks information and data in a user-friendly interface and processes each element through order entry, inventory fulfillment, sales and service to deliver products to customers as quickly as possible.
Mintsoft is exactly that! It's a cloud-based order fulfillment solution that is designed to streamline your order processes for manufacturers, online retail and third-party logistics providers. You can integrate all your orders from various online platforms and multiple sales channels, giving you a 360-management view of the entire dispatch process from picking, packing and shipping.

How does order management system work?
An OMS works by handling the following business functions:
Order tracking
An Order Management System streamlines processes for both customers and vendors. Handling and collating orders to regular updates on the progress of shipment are some of the most important basic functions. Having one place to look for stock levels, order progress, and customer details makes a huge difference to efficiency and productivity.
Inventory management
An OMS holds stock levels for fulfillment points. Overselling and overstocking are common issues when you cannot accurately measure inventory. With accurate numbers, you can forecast and understand customer order demands allowing you to prioritise your efforts.
Fulfillment
This involves finding the stock, packaging it, arranging for the best delivery options and attaching labels for shipment from the warehouse to the customer. With an OMS, you'll know how long the package will take to arrive, where problems arise, and prevent lost packages.
Returns
Nobody is thrilled with the idea of returns; however, by utilising a single software system, packages can easily be resent or refunded with minimal disruption to both the vendor and the customer.
Mintsoft is a cloud-based order fulfillment and warehouse management solution that is designed to streamline your order processes for manufacturers, online retail and third-party logistics providers.
Who can benefit from an Order Management System?
An Order Management System (OMS) offers benefits to a wide array of businesses. E-commerce retailers and multi-channel sellers can streamline order processing, ensuring efficient handling of high volumes. Wholesalers and distributors gain better inventory control and order tracking. Manufacturers use OMS to manage incoming orders and production schedules. Third-party logistics providers optimise order fulfillment. Healthcare and pharmaceutical industries enhance prescription tracking and compliance. Food and beverage businesses manage perishables and comply with safety regulations. Automotive suppliers improve supply chain operations, while textile and apparel companies handle diverse product lines effectively. In essence, any organisation dealing with orders, whether in retail, distribution, or manufacturing, across various industries, can gain from implementing an OMS. It enhances order accuracy, reduces processing times, provides real-time inventory visibility, and ultimately elevates customer satisfaction and operational efficiency.

- Implementation can be expensive
- The investment in training
