A Warehouse Execution System (WES) is a warehouse software solution that directs all of the processes that occur in a distribution center. The WES works in real-time to organize, synchronize, and sequence warehouse resources. The system helps keep all the moving parts in your facility streamlined, from employees to material handling equipment. This solution enables you to keep your distribution operation in a continuous flow, and if something arises and a condition changes in part of the process, the system will prioritize work in a way to expedite fulfillment.
A WES system gives you the functionality to receive and track products, making it easier than ever to pair specific products with customer orders. The system breaks the orders into logical units of work. Also, it can collaborate with your WCS software to send direct automated material handling equipment or warehouse staff to execute the process.
It’s no secret that labor challenges are affecting many companies. With the latest advancements in technology, labor issues don’t have to slow down your operation. In fact, the right combination of systems can set you up to run more efficiently, while also being less reliant on manual labor.
