Order management systems (OMS) were built for a simpler time. When ecommerce was limited to one or two sales channels and a single warehouse, managing orders from a central system worked fine.
But modern ecommerce is a different world. Brands sell across TikTok Shop, Amazon, Shopify, eBay and wholesale portals. They fulfil from multiple warehouses, 3PLs and even dropship partners. Customers expect next-day delivery, seamless returns, and real-time updates. Under that pressure, traditional order management cracks.
That’s where order operations comes in.
What’s Wrong with OMS Today?
Order management systems were designed to capture and process orders. But they struggle when those orders are coming from ten different places, fulfilled from five different locations, and subject to constantly shifting business rules.
Common issues include:
Inventory desync
Stock isn’t updated in real time across systems, leading to oversells or stockouts.
Manual routing
Orders are sent to the wrong warehouse or get delayed while someone manually chooses a fulfilment method.
Plug-in sprawl
Dozens of integrations layered on top of each other, often brittle and error-prone.
No single source of truth
Products and SKUs may be duplicated, inconsistent, or unmapped across systems.
As a result, operations teams spend more time fixing problems than shipping products.
What Is Order Operations?
Order operations is the layer between your sales channels and your fulfilment stack. It’s where rules are applied, systems stay in sync, and manual effort is replaced with automation.
Instead of trying to make one OMS do everything, order operations platforms connect your existing tools from ecommerce storefronts to WMS, ERP, 3PLs and courier networks and orchestrate how data moves between them.
With an order operations platform like Neuro, brands can:
Automatically route orders based on weight, value, destination, or channel
Sync inventory in real time across warehouses, marketplaces and storefronts
Apply business logic to handle bundles, subscriptions, or custom shipping requirements
Flag issues early like duplicate orders, failed webhooks, or stock discrepancies
It’s not about replacing your tech stack. It’s about making it work together — intelligently.
