Understanding Kitting and Fulfillment Services

by | Sep 22, 2022 | Fasteners

Many third-party logistics companies provide kitting and fulfillment services, with kitting being an add-on service. Assembling various products and packing them into a single unit is known as kitting. Contrarily, fulfillment describes the complete procedure of receiving, filling, and sending orders.

Fulfillment kitting services offer a variety of significant advantages as part of an individual marketing strategy. These include simplifying and arranging inventories, as well as packaging optimization. In general, kitting ensures that the supply chain runs securely and quickly.

Closer Look at Kitting

Each item is uniquely identified at the receiving stage by its unique SKU. The kitting process assembles the specified goods in advance of client purchases. A team then properly packages the products and designates a single new SKU for the grouping. Kitting arranges warehouse space in this manner. Additionally, it shortens the time required by staff to locate, acquire, and track items.

To ensure that orders are ready to ship, or nearly so when they are received, a significant percentage of the work is completed in advance through kitting. Whole kits may be available for shipping when orders come in if the producer specifies a combination in advance. Even if part of a kit’s contents isn’t specified in full before the order, much of the work may still be done in advance.

Why Choose Kitting Services?

Kitting and fulfillment services, like other 3PL services, relieve your in-house business of the work of managing inventories, arranging products, and packing. Space is freed up by outsourcing this part to a fulfillment facility that is highly service-oriented and compliant. Hiring a reputable provider for your kitting also frees up resources for other priorities.
