Cart.com has made its proprietary warehouse and transportation management systems available as standalone offerings.
These modules — Constellation WMS and Constellation TMS — join the company’s distributed order management system, which is called Constellation OMS, as standalone software-as-a-service (SaaS) offerings, Cart.com said in a Wednesday (July 24) press release.
The three solutions can be used independently or together, according to the release.
“For years, Constellation has been the critical software foundation for Cart.com’s own network of fulfillment centers across the U.S.,” Omair Tariq, founder and CEO of Cart.com, said in the release. “I’m confident that our modern technology will enable both merchants and warehouse operators to drive better performance and an improved experience for their customers.”
Constellation WMS enables users to manage every aspect of a warehouse from a single dashboard, per the release. It covers both day-to-day operations and robust reporting. It features omnichannel functionality, intelligent pick pathing and waving, streamlined receiving and processing, simplified returns management and consolidated labor management.
Constellation TMS equips users with automated multi-carrier, multi-service level transportation rate management tools, according to the release. It features dynamic rate selection, end-to-end visibility from a single dashboard and enhanced procurement that centralizes all quotes, negotiations and settlements.
Each of the Constellation modules has an application programming interface (API)-first design and can augment or replace companies’ existing technology stacks, per the release.
“With capabilities spanning inbound and receiving, put away and inventory management, intelligent picking and packing, dynamic rate shopping, shipping and returns management, and facility labor management, Constellation helps drive efficiency, scalability and cost savings across client operations,” Cart.com said in the release.
Cart.com received $30 million in financing from Trinity Capital in December to scale its operations and bolster its balance sheet.
“With Trinity’s financing, Cart.com will double down on investments that support the growing demand for innovative logistics and commerce infrastructure solutions that help our customers unlock more efficient growth,” Tariq said at the time in a press release.
In April, the company said it was working with Walmart Marketplace to simplify onboarding and help both new and existing sellers grow their sales on that platform.
Also in April, Cart.com acquired “Amazon-as-a-service” company Amify, saying it aimed to expand its Amazon Marketplace services offering.
