From Purchase Order to Last-Mile Delivery
We help wholesale distributors get real-time visibility across inventory, orders, and fulfillment with NetSuite so you stop making decisions on yesterday's data.
Distribution margin leaks between the systems, not inside them.
Inventory, fulfillment, order intake, and procurement each run somewhere different, and the gaps between them are where the margin goes. Here's what changes in each when they run on one platform.
- INVENTORY
Purchasing runs on yesterday's numbers.
Stock sits in one warehouse and out in another, and the count you're reading is a day old.
How We Solve ItOne live view of every SKU across every location, with automated reorder points and demand planning built on history and seasonality.
- FULFILLMENT
Paper pick lists are costing you margin.
Pick, pack, and ship runs on manual entry, and shipping errors come back as returns.
How We Solve ItNetSuite WMS replaces the paper with zone and wave picking, mobile barcode scanning, and carrier-prioritized pick lists.
- ORDERS
Four channels, four places to look.
Web, EDI, sales reps, and phone orders land in different systems and get consolidated after the fact.
How We Solve ItEvery channel flows into one order desk with intelligent promising and allocation, plus a self-service portal for tracking and returns.
- PROCUREMENT
Vendor terms get negotiated from memory.
Contracts, POs, and performance across dozens of suppliers all live in Excel, with no lead-time visibility.
How We Solve ItRFQs, blanket POs, and contracts run in one place with vendor scoring and lead-time data, so you negotiate from numbers.
Find any SKU before the customer calls.
We scope a distribution build around your warehouses, your channels, and your vendor terms — then the same senior consultants run it through go-live. Real-time visibility across inventory, orders, and fulfillment, so decisions stop running on yesterday's data.
A 30-minute review of where your margin is going. No pitch.
Testimonial 1 of 2: Patrick Soong
It built, automated, and centralized our order process in NetSuite. From web store to inventory, it's as perfect as humanly possible. None of this would be possible without Luxent.

Before You Choose a Wholesale Distribution NetSuite Partner
The core mix is NetSuite ERP plus WMS, Advanced Inventory, and Demand Planning, with CRM for a customer 360 and OneWorld for multi-country operations. The right configuration depends on your warehouse count, SKU complexity, and channel mix — we'll recommend it on the first call.
Yes. NetSuite WMS handles real-time inventory tracking, barcode scanning, pick-pack-ship automation, and zone and wave picking. WMS is where the margin gains happen — faster fulfillment, fewer errors, and lower shipping costs.
You get a unified, real-time view across all locations, with automated transfer orders, replenishment logic, and DRP. One view of every SKU and every warehouse — no more calling the floor to check stock levels.
Yes. Native SuiteCommerce plus third-party integrations with Shopify, Amazon, and other platforms mean website orders flow into the same system as EDI and phone orders. It's one unified order-to-cash across every channel.
Core financials go live in about 3 months; distribution with WMS and integrations usually runs 3 to 6 months. We'll scope your implementation in the first conversation — no vague ranges.
Go-live is the beginning, not the end. Our managed services start at $2,100 per month and focus on ongoing optimization, not just break-fix support, so the system keeps improving as your business grows.
Failed implementations are fixable. We audit what went wrong, build a recovery plan, and get your distribution operation back on track.
Working with a brand new 3PL is something we had never done before. Luxent was able to connect our ERP system with our 3PL and work with our 3PL to integrate a custom CSV drop file that uploads every day so that our ERP System, our inventory, and our 3PL are all communicating on a daily basis.
