Benefits of 3PL Warehouse Management System

The success of your eCommerce operations largely depends on how rapidly your customers receive the shipment. And the secret ingredient that keeps you moving with handling, storage, and processing goods is robust warehouse management. When you look to earn more profits, handling self-operated logistics does not fully meet your goals, especially if it is beyond your sight; it siphons a lot of investment. How’s that if you rein in your overseas warehouse management with 3PLs or third-party logistics. It is indeed efficient, productive, and cost-effective. With 3PL warehouse management software for your warehouse operations, it gives you a unified view and rapid applicability for success. Don’t know if you go for 3PL management software or not, just read on to know more about its features and benefits.

• Stock picking from the supply chain


• International, national, local goods shipment


• Compliance with overseas, local or national road transportation laws

As you consider outsourcing 3PL, using 3PL warehouse management software makes a comprehensive addition to the whole system of warehouse operation management. In addition, WMS software also streamlines complex warehouse operations, lowers operation costs, and improves decision making. But, before you move on, you must check with what benefits you can get from the third-party logistics management software.

Real-time visibility into stocks

With your 3PL warehouse management software integrated with the ERP or enterprise resource planning, you get real-time data about anything related to stocks. At the same time, the system easily connects you with your shipper, giving you unified visibility into progress, inventory, and documents virtually. When combined with your 3PL warehouse management system, an inventory management system is easily seen across your web portal and hence, you can manage inventory, orders, and execute tasks. Added functionalities of this duo are,

• No extra labor needed to generate customer report


• Secure login for the client

Inventory Tracking



Client interaction is the foundation of your business. 3PL WMS dedicatedly serves this purpose. With real-time location tracking of the goods shipped, you can give your customers an exact delivery report.

Streamlining tracking functionalities via SKU, batch, parts, or serial number is the most accurate way to get real-time data about goods in transit.

Besides, your WMS also makes sure you get inventory activity details inside or outside of the warehouse. This is feasible to manage a complete audit.

3PL Billing

Billing makes an important part of the whole transaction. It is complicated and time-consuming for shippers, and prone to errors. However, you can easily avoid it with your 3PL WMS that generates accurate billing against many transactions taking place.

3PL software scalability

At the same, when seasonal peaks go up, using this advanced third-party logistics service makes it efficient to manage goods and shipment.
