WMS - What is a WMS? And why?
A WMS (Warehouse Management System) is a software solution that helps manage and optimise all processes within a warehouse. With a WMS, you can track exactly which goods come in, where they are stored and how they leave the warehouse again.
Fewer errors. Higher accuracy.
The problem: Every picking error costs money. Replacements, returns and delays affect customer satisfaction and warehouse efficiency. Relying on paper-based processes increases the risk of errors.
How we solve it:
- Digital order validation - Reduce lead time by prioritising the best path.
- AI-driven error prevention - The system alerts users before mistakes are made.
- Live inventory tracking - Always choose the right item in the right location.
The result? A drastic reduction in errors and a smoother workflow.
Seamless integration.
The problem: Unconnected systems between your ERP, TMS, eCommerce and logistics platforms create inefficiencies, leading to manual data entry, errors and delays. Without seamless integration, your warehouse struggles to keep stock, orders and shipments synchronised in real time.
How we solve it:
- Plug & Play connectivity - Easily integrate with your ERP, TMS, e-commerce and logistics platforms for unified operation.
- Real-Time Data Synchronisasion - Keep stocks, orders and shipments updated across all systems without manual intervention. The system alerts users before errors are made.
- API & Pre Built Connectors - A flexible integration framework that effortlessly connects to your existing with your existing technology.
The result? Faster, error-free processing and happier customers.
(Faster, More Efficient, Optimal,...) Order processing.
The problem: Many warehouses rely on manual workflows that slow down operations. Long walking distances, inefficient order picking procedures and manual order tracking lead to delays and unnecessary costs.
How we solve it:
- Optimised order picking routes - Reduce walking distances by prioritising the best route.
- Batch & wave picking - Collect multiple orders at once for maximum efficiency.
- Order allocation in real time - Immediately assign tasks to the right person at the right time.
The result? More orders processed in the same time, with less effort.
Scalability - Flexible solution that grows with you.
The problem: As order volumes grow, many WMS solutions become bottlenecks rather than tools. Rigid systems force companies to compromise instead of scaling smoothly.
How we solve it:
- Cloud-based scalability - No need for expensive servers or IT teams.
- Plug-and-play integrations - Connect effortlessly with ERP, e-commerce and carriers.
- Multi-site management - Easily scale operations across multiple warehouses.
The result? Faster, error-free processing and happier customers.
