With a large number of distributors now focused on Online Web Ordering and Customer Relationship Management automation., technology adoption within the Warehouse Distribution industry is increasing rapidly. How can existing warehousing infrastructures leverage new trends?
Technology & Benefits:
Scanning Technologies.
Scanning equipment in the warehouse is essential, to maximise inventory throughput, increase productivity and improve accuracy. Supporting real-time data capture at the point of transaction to ensure accuracy.
The Internet of Things (IoT).
A “smart warehouse” can serve to boost efficiency through the entire supply chain. Connected devices and sensors can help manage inventory – quantity, price, time and place. Resulting in an intelligent supply chain, a reduction in asset losses and warehouse inventory optimisation and accuracy.

Warehouse Management System.
A WMS is a software application that supports the day-to-day operations within your distribution business, providing centralised management of tasks such as tracking inventory levels and stock locations.
