Fast and reliable order processing is a central commitment of the SayPro Online Marketplace. As emphasized in the March SCMR-17 report, SayPro’s operational standard is to process all customer orders within 24 hours of order confirmation to maintain a high level of service excellence, reduce delivery delays, and meet growing customer expectations for speed and accuracy.
This 24-hour turnaround applies to both domestic and international orders and is enforced through automated workflows, real-time inventory visibility, and tightly coordinated logistics.
2. Objectives of the 24-Hour Order Processing Standard
| Objective | Description |
|---|---|
| Customer Satisfaction | Fast processing leads to quicker delivery and improved buyer experience. |

3. Standard Order Fulfillment Workflow at SayPro
The following streamlined workflow enables SayPro to process most orders within 24 hours of receipt:
Step 1: Order Confirmation
- Once an order is placed and payment is verified, it is automatically entered into the Order Management System (OMS).
- The OMS validates:
- Customer details
- Shipping method
- Inventory availability
Step 2: Inventory Check & Allocation
- The system checks live inventory levels through SayPro’s Inventory Management Module.
- If in stock, the item is immediately reserved and marked for fulfillment.
- If stock is unavailable, the system flags it for restocking or initiates supplier backorder protocols.
Step 3: Picking & Packing
- Orders ready for processing are routed to the fulfillment center’s picking queue.
- Warehouse staff pick items using barcode scanners for accuracy.
- Items are packed securely with correct labeling and documentation.
Step 4: Shipment Dispatch
- Packed orders are transferred to SayPro’s logistics and shipping department.
- Carriers are selected based on delivery location and SLA requirements.
- A shipping confirmation (with tracking number) is sent to the customer.
Step 5: Order Closure
- Orders are marked as “Processed” in the system.
- Order fulfillment data is synced with customer service, accounting, and CRM platforms.
4. Tools and Technology Supporting 24-Hour Processing
SayPro leverages several digital solutions to maintain speed and accuracy:
- OMS Integration with inventory and logistics systems for real-time coordination.
- Barcode & RFID Scanning for efficient item tracking during fulfillment.
- Auto-prioritization algorithms to fast-track urgent or high-priority orders.
- Dashboards & SLA Trackers to monitor processing times against the 24-hour target.
SCMR-17 Highlight:
In March 2025, SayPro’s average order processing time was 18.6 hours, well within the 24-hour SLA, thanks to increased automation and staff cross-training in warehouse operations.

| Payment issues | Orders held pending resolution; customer alerted automatically. |
| Peak season overloads | Temporary workforce expansion and extended shift coverage. |
All delays are tracked via the Fulfillment Exception Log, reviewed weekly by the operations team.

- Double-checking of packed items before sealing.
- Random inspections of outbound orders.
