Fluent Commerce’s cloud-native distributed order management system is unique. Fluent Order Management (Fluent OMS) is the first cloud platform that can be customized to fit your omnichannel fulfillment strategy. This means you can offer all the fulfillment options customers expect, but also keep the processes that make your business unique. What’s more, it’s flexible. So you can fine-tune your processes over time, and react quickly if market conditions change.

Fluent OMS lets you quickly adapt business processes and decisions to manage fulfillment locations and networks of locations. This means you can change which networks can fulfill specific order types (delivery or pickup), or quickly take a network offline – based on the preferred business outcomes. You can also configure what stock you make Available to Promise (ATP) and create custom fulfillment rules based on customer loyalty status, product attributes, the size of an order… the list is endless.
