Is your WMS holding you back, or could it be doing more? Logistics Manager hosted a free webinar with Lucas Systems on Wednesday 10 December, exploring how to supercharge your warehouse management system by unlocking dynamic capabilities.
Replacing or upgrading a warehouse management system can be disruptive, and time-consuming, but it’s not the only path to next-level performance.
View the webinar on demand to discover how modern work execution and optimisation systems can fill in the blanks of your existing WMS, bringing decision-making smarts, dynamic task orchestration, and real-time visibility to your warehouse operations.
The session covered:
- The myths of WMS capabilities and how to achieve your desired configurability without breaking the bank
- How work execution systems (WES) can extend the life and capabilities of your WMS through real-time optimisation
- How intelligent decision making and dynamic tools improve your ability to handle challenges
- The practical steps for integrating a WES with minimal disruption – and faster than any WMS upgrade
