The Descartes Systems Group has announced the acquisition of Extensiv, a provider of warehouse management and fulfillment solutions for third-party logistics providers (3PLs).
The acquisition extends Descartes’ warehouse and inventory management capabilities while deepening its reach into the 3PL and ecommerce fulfillment market.
Extensiv helps 3PLs better manage inventory, orders, B2B and B2C fulfillment, and billing across a connected network of sales channels, ecommerce platforms, online marketplaces, and carriers.
Descartes logistics services providers general manager Scott Sangster said: “We’re excited to welcome Extensiv’s customers, partners, and employees.
“The combination of Extensiv with Descartes’ transportation, connectivity, visibility, trade intelligence, customs compliance, and last mile delivery solutions, enables logistics service providers to expand their offerings and scale operations with a single technology provider versus a patchwork of vendors.”
Extensiv’s AI capabilities enable users to quickly access insights, improve decision-making and reduce manual effort.
Descartes ecommerce operations general manager Mikel Richardson said: “3PLs are under constant pressure to fulfill faster, scale flexibly, and support the evolving needs of modern brands.
“Descartes has long been a trusted technology provider for 3PLs. Extensiv strengthens that position by adding more participants, more contextually rich operational data and fulfillment intelligence to the Descartes Global Logistics Network.”
