5 Signs your business is ready for WMS

Introduction

A WMS solution helps improve warehouse efficiency and margins of a distribution business.

Summary

Here are 5 signs your business needs a WMS solution.

1. Your order volumes are growing and your business wants to maintain customer expectations and margins.
2. You are expanding/opening new locations/distribution points and need more organisations and control on day to day activities and inventory management.
3. Cycle counts and stocktake are taking longer than expected and you have to do many adjustments to manage variances.
4. You are yet to implement barcoding/scanning of SKUs during the pick & receiving processes. e.g packing outbound and unpacking inbound shipments are a very slow process.
5. You wish to track warehouse user efficiency, including activities, avg. duration to picks orders and related activities that will help improve overall order processing efficiency and labour utilisation. You are thinking of setting up automated “pick’ and ‘put’ away strategies and structure around zones and bins.
