Streamlining Order Management for Accuracy and Scale at EKWB

Streamlining Order Management for Accuracy and Scale

The Challenge

Fragmented, Manual Order Workflows

EKWB’s order processes were hampered by:

  • Manual touchpoints causing delays and errors

  • Disconnected systems across Amazon, FluidWorks Configurator, Salesforce, Magento, and Navision ERP

  • Non-traceable exceptions like returns, partial orders, or cancellations

Key pain points included:

  • Missed or delayed orders affecting customer satisfaction

  • Data mismatches between sales platforms and ERP

  • Inconsistent tracking of leads, products, and shipments

  • Inefficient manual validation and entry of CSVs into Navision

Solution

End-to-End Process Mapping & Automation Blueprint

Benchmarked approached the problem by first mapping the full order lifecycle, identifying bottlenecks, and then proposing a modular automation strategy:

System Integration

  • API-based connection between FluidWorks, Magento, Salesforce, and Navision

  • Automated reconciliation of orders across all channels

  • Centralized tracking to ensure no orders were lost in email inboxes

Solution

Automated Validation & Alerts

  • Real-time checks for incomplete, duplicate, or inconsistent orders

  • Alerts to relevant stakeholders for exception handling

  • Automated CSV ingestion with validation rules, reducing manual errors

Governance & Auditing

  • Restriction of admin access to sensitive order inboxes

  • Periodic audit reports comparing ERP, marketplace, and warehouse logs

  • Continuous improvement loops to refine automation and catch edge cases

The Outcome

  • Reduced manual order handling by 60%

  • Eliminated missed or delayed orders due to email-based processing

  • Improved data consistency between sales platforms and ERP

  • Enabled real-time order visibility across sales, operations, and warehouse teams

  • Created a scalable foundation to handle growth in B2B and eCommerce operations
