Extensiv – delivering omnichannel software solutions for warehouse, inventory, and order management – today announced an integration with BUKU Ship, a leading provider in eCommerce shipping CX solutions for 3PLs and brands.
With this integration, Extensiv’s 3PL customers will receive AI-driven shipping solutions to deliver amazing customer experiences, minimize errors, and turn shipping into a profit center. In addition, BUKU customers will be able to leverage Extensiv’s industry-leading 3PL Warehouse Management Solution (WMS) to better serve customers, operate their warehouses more efficiently, and increase growth.

The integration is made possible through the recent launch of Extensiv Parcel API. Parcel API builds on Extensiv 3PL Warehouse Manager’s Small Parcel Suite, a SaaS-based paperless warehouse efficiency solution for 3PLs offering ecommerce and omnichannel fulfillment. With the Small Parcel Suite, 3PL warehouses reduce packing time by 50% by offering order packing and packing from shelves.
The BUKU and Extensiv integration comes at a time when small parcel volume continues to rise. In 2021 roughly 2.14 billion people (27% of the world population) made online purchases, and that number is only projected to increase in 2022. As volumes continue to increase, so does the demand for enhanced small parcel shipping capabilities.
“We look forward to introducing our customers to Extensiv’s unique intelligent distribution platform while helping Extensiv customers streamline the shipping experience – saving time, increasing customer loyalty, and protecting profit margins. Our joint warehousing and shipping CX expertise will allow mid-size 3PLs to take the next step in their evolution,” said Ken Muir, CEO of BUKU. “The 3PL market is exploding and the increased demand requires new technology and approaches. Together, Extensiv and BUKU give 3PLs an unprecedented opportunity to expand their operations and profitability.”
“We’re thrilled to welcome BUKU to the Extensiv ecosystem. This space is rapidly evolving and it can be difficult for our customers to keep up with the latest transportation innovations,” said Andy Lloyd, CEO of Extensiv. “It’s our responsibility to keep up with those solutions. BUKU is a perfect example of that. The 3PL parcel shipping use case is a unique one and the BUKU team has a deep understanding of what a 3PL warehouse needs to be successful. Their expertise and technology will be a big boost for our mutual customers.”
