B2B Enterprises transform their businesses with Shipium
Reduce parcel shipping costs
Prevent unnecessary erosion of margins caused by “one-size-fits-all” approach for every shipment. Shipium offers an end-to-end optimization system to support the entire B2B fulfillment workflow.
Compete more effectively
Fast, reliable, low-cost delivery enhances the B2B experience and creates differentiated value. With Shipium, you can ensure that you’re both setting the right expectations and delivering on those expectations, every time.
Connect and leverage your data
Optimize decisions for cost and performance by breaking down data silos across systems and locations. Our B2B fulfillment services integrate with your existing technology, leveraging our process orchestration to maximize value.
Intelligent upgrades/downgrades
Capitalize on every opportunity to select economy/ground methods when they’ll still meet your delivery date or range. Shipium’s models help you establish dynamic SLAs for ground methods, ensuring your B2B shipping services consistently meet delivery dates at the lowest possible cost.
Packaging optimization
Use estimated dimensions and weights to select the right packaging for B2B shipments early in the fulfillment process, then validate those decisions downstream before packout. Shipium’s packaging recommendations help to lower dimweight charges, storage costs and more.
Split reduction & order consolidation
Minimize the number of shipments needed to fulfill every order to keep shipping costs down. Our speed and cost models give you insight on whether a multi-SKU order can be consolidated over time.
Zone skipping
Create ideal long-haul lanes to transport shipments using the right mix of carriers, routes, and locations within your network. Consolidated packages are sent directly to their destination zone, lowering B2B shipping costs and improving the speed of your delivery service.
Universal business rule management
Enable operators to implement business rules that automate decisioning across systems and workflows. Create unique rulesets for different fulfillment contexts and locations, or apply rules globally as-needed.
Rapid carrier implementations
Intuitively upload and virtualize carrier contracts once they’re established to accelerate new carrier onboarding time from weeks to hours. Manage service methods, label and packaging configurations, fulfillment center mapping and more.

Detailed performance analysis
Use connected data to analyze key aspects of your B2B fulfillment process including carrier and shipping lane performance, rate shopping efficacy, compliance with customer SLAs and more.
Dynamic order routing

Inventory allocationg
Use our transit speed models within your existing inventory management systems to better model out probable delivery times paired with merchandise forecasting. The result will be more inventory placed in B2B warehouse locations closer to more probable buyers, reducing time-in-transit and boosting customer satisfaction.
