6 Scenarios That Indicate

It’s Time for a WMS Upgrade

If you have an outdated inventory system, not only does it negatively affect the warehouse, but it is also damaging for everybody in the supply chain.

Below we’ve listed 6 scenarios that indicate it’s

time for an upgrade:

YOUR BUSINESS IS GROWING AND STARTING TO STRETCH YOUR WAREHOUSE AND WAREHOUSE SYSTEM’S CAPACITY.

Whether your system struggles with high volumes on certain days, you experience challenges when trying to get everything completed at peak times of the year, or your system occasionally causes delays to goods in and / or goods out – if you’re unable to process orders for fulfilment, then it’s time to move onto a newer version. In this fast paced retail industry, you need to be able to keep up with order speed to ensure customers don’t go elsewhere.

1. experiencing Delays

slow

ORDER MISTAKES OR PROCESSING ERRORS ARE COSTING YOU CUSTOMERS

You must have the ability to fulfil customers’ orders both efficiently and accurately. If customers are receiving the wrong orders, or items are being miss-picked and delayed-orders, then this will cause negative impacts on your profitability.

2. Errors

??

YOU SEEM TO BE SPENDING A LOT OF TIME CORRECTING HUMAN ERRORS,

WHICH IS HAVING A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON YOUR PRODUCTIVITY LEVELS.

If your software doesn’t support the automation needed to eliminate human errors, your productivity levels will continue to suffer. Companies that spend time correcting preventable errors spend less time on additional processes, resulting again in lower profits across the board.

3. Corrections

!

YOU SPEND MORE TIME WAITING FOR YOUR SYSTEM TO SET UP AND WORK CORRECTLY,

THAN YOU DO ON THE ACTUAL SYSTEM.

Take a look to see whether your software works when you need it to, or whether your workers are waiting around for the programme to do its job. If it is the latter, then your due for a newer version.

4. WAITING ON THE SYSTEM

YOUR SYSTEM IS VULNERABLE TO SECURITY ISSUES

Protecting your company’s and your customers’ data is vital, if your current software is susceptible to bugs or any other types of security issues, then don’t delay in upgrading your WMS system, make this a priority.

5. Security Issues

HAVE YOU THOUGHT ABOUT IMPLEMENTING NEW TECHNOLOGY INTO YOUR WAREHOUSE SOLUTION BUT DECIDED AGAINST IT DUE TO SOFTWARE INCOMPATIBILITY ISSUES?

Whether you have trouble adding new suppliers or customers to your system, you’re required to use manual workarounds due to system limitations, or your software is unable to adapt to the changing demands of your customers – you must ensure your system is flexible enough to adjust to the changing demand of your customers.
