About BlueBox

BlueBox is a third-party logistics (3PL) provider that offers ecommerce warehousing, pick/pack/ship, returns processing, and carrier management. Implementations typically include multiple regional facilities, real-time inventory visibility, and SLAs designed for DTC brands with seasonal peaks. (If your business works with a specific BlueBox region/entity, we’ll match locations during connection so data maps cleanly.)

How Tightly works with BlueBox

Step 1 — Connect & import what’s live

Authenticate BlueBox and select the sites you use. Tightly imports existing open POs, on-hand by location, inbound shipments, and receipts.

Step 2 — Keep POs in sync

Any new POs you create (in Tightly or BlueBox) and changes to dates/quantities/status sync automatically. DOH and reorder points update in real time.

Step 3 — Plan & execute

Run Smart Replenishment to get explainable recommendations (timeline, Days of Stock, lead time, inbound coverage). Convert selections to BlueBox-ready POs in one click; ETAs/receipts feed future plans and InStock ship-by dates.

Key inventory planning features for BlueBox users

1. Location-aware forecasting — recommendations show the why per SKU at each BlueBox site.

2. Live PO import & change tracking — your plan always mirrors reality.

3. Reusable policies — seasonal/essentials/margin-led rules applied to saved SKU sets.

4. One-click POs — auto-group by supplier, MOQ, case pack, lead time; email vendor PDFs.

5. InStock backorders — ship-by dates tied to BlueBox inbound, with caps to prevent oversell.

6. Operational alerts — Slack/email when ETAs slip, inbound shrinks, or stockout risk rises.
