What is VCE Solutions?

VCE SOLUTIONS is not just a software manufacturer from Dortmund, but rather the developer team behind it, which has developed the Digital Logistics Platform together. With the interplay of powerful software solutions, complex processes in logistics are automated. The entire shipping and transport process can be seamlessly digitized and dynamically designed, allowing companies to push their scaling forward flexibly and with a future-oriented perspective.

Who is the Digital Logistics Platform made for?

Spread across 3 software solutions, overarching target groups are served.

The Shipping Starter is aimed at start-ups and medium-sized online retailers with about 10 to 20 shipments per day and is geared to the challenges of order management and shipping process. The flexible shipping platform thus enables rapid growth and an automated process execution between shop and logistics. The picking and packing solution digitizes the support in the fulfillment process with the upgrade to Shipping Starter + and optimizes order and goods management.

The Shipping Platform is an all-in-one solution for shipping in online retail, wholesale, and manufacturing with about 50 to 200 shipments per day. Many work steps create a seamless process that boosts business growth with its easy scalability. To additionally maintain full control over the costs of shipping and transport service providers, booked tariffs, and received invoices, this solution can be extended to the Shipping Platform + with the freight cost management function.

The Logistics Platform encompasses the maximum number of features for logistics service providers (3PL and 4PL), market leaders with large package volumes, and manufacturers as well as fulfillers with inter-store shipping, ship from store, click & collect, or multi-/omnichannel commerce. For companies that ship or transport from 500 shipments per day, this solution is ideal for saving time, costs, and resources through the digitization of their logistics. The Logistics Platform + as an extension of the services includes the development of tailor-made configurations, functions and custom apps, and allows for individual adaptation to the respective area of application and corporate objectives.

What are the benefits of the solutions?

In contrast to conventional tools, which limit business growth through static basic functions and missing extensions, the solutions of the VCE Digital Logistics Platform allow a flexible digitization of the entire process, always exactly suitable for the respective field of application and the corresponding workflow.

Even in their basic version, the solutions grow automatically at the functional level, without additional integrations. Larger growth steps are recommended within the three solutions, which can be designed in a workflow due to the platform approach. The smooth connection through the API-first approach to existing IT infrastructures and the seamless integration to upstream or downstream systems (e.g. ERP, WMS) lay the foundation for smooth and dynamic shipping and transport processes through the three solutions.

Additional benefits include:

Individually upgrade further carriers or shipping companies
Tracking messages and pages in corporate design incl. cross-selling
Manage new freight rates/-offers
Interfaces to all common platforms and systems (like for example Shopify, Pulpo, WeClapp, PlentyMarkets)
Configurable system behavior
