Development of a Cloud-Based Warehouse Management System to Enhance Automation and Visibility

The client faces challenges due to outdated legacy warehouse management systems that lack support for automation, real-time data visibility, and seamless integration with external platforms. Manual processes lead to errors, delays, and increased operational costs, hindering the company's ability to scale and compete effectively in a rapidly digitalizing logistics market.

A large-scale third-party logistics provider operating multiple warehouse facilities across regions, seeking digital transformation to improve operational efficiency and scalability.

• Implement a cloud-based SaaS WMS to automate manual inventory, order, and shipment processes, increasing overall operational efficiency.
• Enable real-time tracking and visibility of inventory levels, order statuses, and warehouse operations across multiple facilities.
• Develop a flexible system capable of integrating with third-party software such as ERP and TMS platforms, supporting business growth and structural adjustments.
• Ensure data security, regulatory compliance, and scalable architecture to accommodate increasing operational volume and data complexity.
• Reduce operational costs by automating routine tasks and replacing outdated legacy systems.
• Enhance warehouse coordination and proactive decision-making through integrated, real-time data exchange.

• Automated task assignment for order picking, packing, and shipping to streamline warehouse operations.
• Real-time inventory management with live data updates and status tracking.
• Mobile accessibility enabling warehouse staff to manage operations via mobile devices.
• Advanced integration capabilities with external ERP, TMS, and third-party logistics software.
• Role-based access control and data encryption to ensure security and compliance.
• Support for scalable modules that adapt as business needs grow, with flexible customization options.
• Proactive alerts and notifications for inventory anomalies, order delays, or system errors.

• Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems for inventory and order data synchronization
• Transportation Management Systems (TMS) for shipment coordination
• Mobile device access for warehouse staff to facilitate automation
• Third-party logistics software for extended functionality and data exchange

• Scalability to support increased transaction volume as operations expand
