The definition of warehouse management systems (WMS) refers to a smart software platform that warehouses use to manage the logistics of their product(s). A WMS warehouse management system typically includes tools for managing the movement, tracking, and storage of inventory, as well as overseeing processes like receiving, picking, packing, and shipping, so all product movement is logged and optimized.
For beverage warehouses handling fast-moving consumer goods, a WMS is essential to ensure products are packaged, shipped, and delivered safely and quickly. This ensures products are traceable and enforces the First-In-First-Out method to maintain product quality.
