Seller Portal Kitting Prep Enhancement Project

Self-serve Kitting Prep
Scaling merchant self-service for kitting while maintaining operational control.
What is Flexport Seller Portal?
The Omnichannel Seller Portal is an all-in-one platform that helps merchants manage their inventory, fulfillment, and channel sales from a single place.
It integrates with 50+ e-commerce and retail platforms—like Shopify, Amazon, and Walmart—allowing brands to sync inventory, automate fulfillment, and ship anywhere with end-to-end visibility.
Kitting & Prep operations allow merchants to pre-bundle SKUs and apply retailer-specific labeling or packaging requirements before fulfillment — streamlining multi-channel shipping and improving delivery speed.
Enable merchants to self-serve kitting prep within Seller Portal while ensuring operational traceability through Prep Portal
Retention risk was mitigated for two of our largest merchants.
50% of the 2023 volume achieved in one month post-pilot.
Enabled $140K projected annual growth in kitting revenue.
Reduced account manager intervention time per job by 80%.
Unify prep service selection (kitting + simple prep) in a clear, modular UI.
Display pricing dynamically with intuitive contextual tooltips.
Minimize merchant errors when mixing kitted and non-kitted SKUs.
Enhance post-booking visibility of prep status and NC (noncompliance) issues.
The challenge was balancing merchant autonomy with operational complexity.
Each UI decision was tied to real constraints — FEFO* logic, box labeling, and prep ID tracking — while maintaining a cohesive, merchant-friendly experience.
*FEFO stands for First Expired, First Out. It’s an inventory management method where items are sold, used, or shipped in order of their expiration dates, not when they were received.
