Information Technology

Supply chains have changed dramatically over the last 15 years in so many ways that it can be hard for some to keep up with. Increases in freight and transportation rates have made costs higher than distribution center labor at many businesses. The cost and quality of labor throughout your supply chain can be a challenging hurdle to overcome. One way to get ahead of this constantly changing landscape, is the usage of robust Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). A WMS benefits numerous aspects of the supply chain, typically beginning with inbound ASN’s and routing through reverse logistics and returns processing. While OMS and ERP applications feature warehousing and distribution functions, they at times lack critical features like the ability to accept ASN’s or the ability to manage the inbound receiving docks with functions such as transport scheduling. Various activities carried out at the warehouse include picking strategies, inventory management and auditing.

Types of Warehouse Management Systems

Warehouse management systems are available in a wide variety of types and involve diverse implementation methods. The type to be deploy depends especially on the nature and size of the company involved. Systems can feature modules found within a much bigger enterprise resource planning (ERP) system or supply chain execution suite. They can also vary significantly in their specificity levels. A small company may use a simple series of spreadsheet or document files, while larger organizations, from the SMBs to enterprise companies, use complex WMS software. Some WMS operations are created specifically for the size of the company involved and many organizations have their own distinct versions of WMS products that can be transferred over to different organizational sizes. Some organizations manufacture their own WMS from scratch. However, more common and advisable to implement a WMS provided by an established and experienced vendor.
