The Importance of Warehouse Management Systems
Effectively managing a warehouse is difficult at the best of times. But, it's even harder if you're still running on manual, cumbersome processes.
That's why warehouse management systems (WMS) have become a critical technology in many distribution and retail digital transformation journeys.
To run your warehouse at maximum efficiency, you need complete visibility and control over your operations. A WMS helps with this. Helps you automate and streamline warehouse processes—increasing efficiency and ensuring you get the most out of your resources, people, inventory and space.
An industry-specific WMS enables you to:
Accelerate receiving and optimize space management with directed putaway capabilities
Count products during the unloading process at the receiving dock
Create picking and packing efficiencies that can be maximized with integrated pre-pack and cartonization rules
Manage and validate returns and reorders with lot and serial tracking
Why an ERP with Built-In WMS Functionality is Ideal
Imagine having all the functionality you need from a WMS integrated seamlessly into a system you already use. That's the beauty of an enterprise resource planning (ERP) solution designed specifically for the distribution and retail industry.
You want a solution built to include all the tools you need to manage your multifaceted operations from a vendor that understands your industry's challenges. Not a one-size-fits-all system. It should scale as your business grows, offer ease-of-use and flexibility, stage orders during the pick demand process, and define wave-picking by precise specifications.
All of this enables you to manage your direct-to-consumer (DTC) orders and fulfillment requirements while providing the functionality and operational visibility necessary to run a capable warehouse.
An ERP with built-in WMS functionality ensures that once the order is processed, the warehouse floor operates efficiently to get the order out the door and into the customer's hands as quickly as possible.
