The Benefits of Warehouse Control Software

Material Handling Equipment can drastically improve efficiencies and increase storage density in numerous supply chain applications. There are top manufacturers producing outstanding units capable of 24/7 operation, quickly delivering parts to operators, conveyors and sorting equipment in a fluid material flow.

But what happens when your top of the line MHE doesn’t interface to your inventory control systems? Why spend capital for equipment that operates like a glorified dry cleaning carousel when paired with the wrong software? Or spend resources to develop an in-house software solution? Or no software, manually entering in location data for each and every transaction from a piece of paper?

Increased Shipping Speed

Reduced Labor Cost

Reduced Dwell Time

Increases Storage Availability
