Blue Yonder Launches AI-Native Order Management to Help Retailers and Distributors Protect Sales and Lower Fulfillment Costs
DALLAS--( BUSINESS WIRE)-- Blue Yonder, the AI company for supply chain, today launched its AI-native Order Management Solution as part of its Cognitive Solutions portfolio. It unifies every stage of an order, from the first delivery promise through fulfillment, customer service and returns. This helps retailers and distributors capture more revenue, lower fulfillment costs and keep their commitments to customers, even when priorities change.
Order management becomes the connecting point
Commerce, planning and execution systems often don’t work together around the order in real time. As a result, customer promises break. Shoppers see products that aren’t readily available, orders get canceled and sales are lost.
“Every order touches almost every part of the supply chain. Planning, inventory, fulfillment, transportation, service and returns all decide whether a promise gets kept,” said Gurdip Singh, chief product officer, Blue Yonder. “The next era of order management will come from the entire supply chain working together around every order. With Blue Yonder Cognitive Solutions, we’ve combined our proven unified decisioning with AI agents and intelligence from across our solutions portfolio. By bringing the right context and action to each operator, we reduce the lag between insight and execution and give them the context to act with speed and precision.”
Blue Yonder Order Management Solution serves as the intelligent coordination layer that connects on-hand and in-transit or on-order inventory with the life cycle of an item and a customer order across allocation, sourcing, promising, customer service and returns. It does so by interoperating with inventory planning and warehouse & logistics fulfillment systems. Businesses can now orchestrate and view an order’s movement across the lifecycle of an item and a customer order, and teams can adjust and optimize orders at scale to continuously improve service, cost, and margin.
AI that lowers the complexity of the work
Blue Yonder's Fulfillment and Customer Service Agents identify the orders and risks that require attention and present the relevant data in one view. They explain why an order is at risk and the trade-offs behind each option. Operators can then act within the permissions and guardrails set by the business. There’s no more searching across applications or trying to decipher what’s happening.
The agents work inside configurable workspaces that give each team an experience tailored to its responsibilities. That means less switching between screens and faster decisions, making advanced order intelligence accessible beyond specialists.
Purpose-built B2B execution
Blue Yonder’s order-management foundation supports advanced capabilities for wholesale, distribution and hybrid B2B/B2C businesses. B2B orders inherently work differently from consumer orders. They often involve commitments against future supply, contract-specific service terms and allocation priorities for key accounts.
With Blue Yonder’s Order Management Solution, businesses can now manage shared inventory while setting different rules for each account, channel, and contract, and intelligently rebalance supply across customer and channel priorities when conditions change. Building on these existing capabilities, Blue Yonder plans to continue investing in advanced B2B order management capabilities to help businesses confidently manage and fulfill complex orders.
How customers benefit
Easy to adopt, built for scale
The solution is cloud-native and modular, so companies don’t need to replace the systems around it. Customers can start with core order management and add services such as store fulfillment and online returns as their needs grow.
Blue Yonder manages orders for some of the world’s largest and most complex retail operations. On Black Friday in 2025, Blue Yonder Order Management processed 7 million order reservations and powered over 133 million estimated delivery date calculations.
