70% Improvement in Operational Efficiency
Automated workflows minimized manual interventions, enabling faster vendor onboarding and seamless warehouse management for merchants, vendors, and customers alike.

Substantial Cost Savings By unifying inventory and order processes, the client significantly reduced overhead expenses linked to manual data entry and fulfillment.

Client & Business Challenges

The client, a U.S.-based multi-vendor marketplace leader, needed to consolidate eCommerce tasks—inventory control, shipping, and order fulfillment—onto a single BigCommerce application. Their multiple storefronts functioned separately, causing fragmentation and inconsistent reporting. Manual processes led to errors in inventory updates, higher labor expenses, and delayed shipments. The client wanted to reduce overhead by automating vendor onboarding, commission calculations, and real-time data synchronization. They also sought a tailored login panel for different user types (merchants and vendors) to ensure relevant, secure dashboards with streamlined views and automated tasks. Overall, the platform had to accommodate high-volume traffic without compromising performance or user satisfaction.

The Solution

Successive Digital built a custom BigCommerce app that harmonized multi-vendor operations, delivering real-time data on products, stock levels, and shipping statuses across various stores. Integrated APIs automated inventory updates, reduced duplicate efforts, and enhanced order splitting. A specialized login panel granted merchants visibility into commissions and vendor rosters, while vendors received dashboards focusing on product listings, shipping details, and fulfillment statuses. Theme customization aligned the user interface with the client’s brand, ensuring a unified experience. By leveraging BigCommerce’s robust architecture and scalable design, the solution supported peak loads and seamlessly adapted to future expansions, cutting operational overhead and accelerating digital growth.

  • Unified Application

A central control panel orchestrated every aspect of multi-store management—from vendor registrations to commission records. Users accessed consolidated data on orders and product SKUs, eliminating scattered systems and enabling consistent oversight. This unified platform laid the foundation for high-volume commerce with minimal manual oversight.

  • API-Driven Automation

BigCommerce integrations automated critical workflows, such as inventory sync and order fulfillment. Real-time data retrieval minimized stock inaccuracies and shipping delays. Combined with custom logic, the APIs split orders based on vendor allocations, drastically reducing confusion and ensuring faster deliveries for an enhanced end-customer experience.

  • Cloud Scalability

The platform’s architecture handled surge traffic via scalable cloud services. Dynamic provisioning absorbed demand spikes without downtimes, and robust monitoring provided constant insights. This approach maintained quick response times, improved reliability, and future-proofed operations, all of which supported continued marketplace expansion and dependable vendor partnerships.
