Abstract: Systems and techniques to determine, substantially in real time, an estimated ship date or an estimated delivery date associated with a product are described. A commitment engine may receive, from a computing device, data associated with a product that comprises a built-to-order product. The commitment engine may determine whether the product is eligible for one of direct shipment, international parcel direct, or hard merge shipment. The commitment engine may determine a shipping method for the product, determine the estimated ship date, the estimated delivery date or both, and send a message to the computing device information identifying at least one of the estimated ship date or the estimated delivery date.
