Infrastructure · Technology & Integration
Connect Products, Orders, Inventory, Channels and Data.
Technology is the control layer that connects commercial and physical execution. GSS uses it to run commerce — it is part of the operating model, not a software product sold on its own.
A connected commerce control layer
Connected Once. Operated Everywhere.
Every channel added, every carrier used and every system connected plugs into the same layer. A new marketplace or country is added without rebuilding the operation behind it.
What the layer connects is decided per program, starting from the systems a brand, retailer or partner already runs.
Six Connections That Keep Commerce in Sync.
Product and catalog data, orders, inventory, channels, enterprise systems and reporting — each one only as useful as its connection to the others.
- Product & catalog
- One product source, enriched and localized per channel and market — titles, attributes, images and compliance data.
- Orders
- Marketplace and retail orders routed into a single operational flow, from acceptance to delivery status.
- Inventory
- Stock positions shared across channels and locations, so availability is managed rather than guessed.
- Channels & integrations
- Marketplace connectivity and commerce-platform connections, managed through one layer instead of one integration per channel.
- ERP, WMS & enterprise systems
- Connections to the brand’s or partner’s ERP and warehouse systems where a program needs them — scope agreed per program.
- Reporting & visibility
- Sales, availability, orders and service levels brought into one view for brand and channel teams.
Marketplaces and Carriers on One Layer.
A selection of the marketplaces and carriers the layer connects to across the three zones. Integration scope is set channel by channel.
One Order, Followed End to End.
The layer is where commercial and physical execution meet: the same order is visible to the channel team, the warehouse and the carrier.
- 01
Channel
A customer orders on a marketplace or retailer channel.
- 02
Commerce layer
The order enters the GSS commerce layer with its price, stock and customer data.
- 03
Inventory
Stock is allocated from the right location for that market.
- 04
Fulfillment
Picked, packed and handed to the carrier chosen for the route.
- 05
Delivery
Tracking, delivery status and any return flow back to the channel and the report.
The layer is judged by what it lets people run — not by the number of integrations it has.
