Optimise Inventory Management With Our Warehouse Management System
What is a Warehouse Management System, and How Important is it?
A warehouse management system (WMS) is a software application that helps businesses manage their inventory, storage, and distribution processes. It helps to streamline operations by automating the tracking of goods in and out of the warehouse, as well as providing real-time visibility into stock levels. This allows companies to better manage their supply chain and optimise their storage space. A warehouse stock management system also helps cut costs by reducing labour costs associated with manual processes and eliminating errors due to manual data entry. With a WMS in place, businesses can maximise efficiency and profitability while ensuring customer satisfaction.

What role does a warehouse stock management system play in the supply chain?
In order to ensure that the product is received at the right time by the end user, the supply chain must operate in an efficient manner. And in order to do this, businesses need to have a warehouse management system in place. Thus a WMS ensures that none of the stock or raw materials in the warehouse gets misplaced by helping you keep track of the goods and keeping the supply chain running smoothly.
How A warehouse Management System works
Inventory Receiving:
The stock and inventory received by the suppliers are recorded by the system. The quantity and quality of the products are verified, and the database is updated accordingly.
Shipping Initiation:
The WMS then generates shipping labels and manages the shipping process, including the selection of carriers, scheduling pickups, and tracking shipments.
Putaway:
Once the inventory received is recorded, the WMS then moves them to a designated location in the warehouse.
Updating Inventory levels:
As the products are shipped in and out of the warehouse, the WMS ensures that the inventory levels are updated to keep a proper count of stock levels.
Order Picking:
On receiving an order from customers, a pick list is generated by the WMS, after which it directs pickers to the locations at which the products are stored.
Report & Overview:
The system then provides a detailed report about the stock levels, and shipping data about the inventory so that the warehouse managers can make appropriate actions.
Product Packing:
Once the order gets picked, the system then verifies whether the right products are picked, and then the said products are packed into boxes.

Pick to Light System
Pick to Light system is a picking support system that uses light modules to enhanced picking and sorting operations.
Operators at warehouses or factories walk to the location where the light module lights up and pick the number of items indicated on the light module. This picking process, which is carried out according to the instructions on the light module, ensures accurate and speedy picking operations.
An inefficient picking operation causes many problems.

Enhanced Stock Management
By using customised RFID labels, security seals and state of the art RFID tracking software intelligence, the solution provides assurance to the Australian Defence Force (ADF) for data integrity and accuracy. Using barcode identification as a contingency, passive and active RFID systems have been used to successfully identify items, locations and seals.
The ISM solution has been proven to reduce stocktaking time from four months (with teams of people) to less than one day (with minimal resources required) whilst ensuring 100% inventory accuracy. Achieve improved stock management through the elimination of human error, time and resources as time used to retrieve, track and monitor stock is decreased by more than 90%.
Warehouse Efficiency Optimised
Our RFID inventory tracking and warehouse management solution (WMS) will enable you to identify what stock you have and where it is located at any given time, all in an effective and very efficient manner. The optimisation of human resources that were once tied up for long periods of time can now be freed up for alternative tasks.
The ISM solution saw the implementation of rugged Motorola PDAs embedded with UHF RFID modules as well as fixed Impinj UHF RFID readers. As there were requirements to identify many types of items and locations, a range of commercially off the shelf and customised UHF RFID tags were sourced, manufactured and implemented by BCDS to international ISO18000-6C standards.
