Increasing inventory and workload necessitated the implementation of a warehouse management system (WMS) in warehouse operations. WMS is a software application that is designed to support the management of warehouse, distribution center, and staffs. They are tactical tools deployed by the business owners to cater to the requirements of the distribution channel(s) and of the customers. It uses a database that is configured to manage the warehouse operations and contains detailed description of various standard warehouse elements, including individual stock keeping units (SKUs), warehouse storage locations, dock doors, and expected labor productivity rates by activity or function.
The growth of digital technology has increased the adoption of WMS in several applications. Growth of e-commerce & requirements of omni-channel fulfillment, WMS add-on module sales, labor efficiency, cost ownership advantages, and supply chain platform integration are the factors that drive the market growth.
