Frequently asked questions about intelligent storage systems
What is a warehouse management system?
A warehouse management system (WMS – Integrated Warehouse Management System) is a software solution that digitizes and automates all warehouse processes as an automated inventory control system. This includes goods receipt, inventory management, withdrawals, stocktaking and reordering. Modern warehouse management systems work with sensor technology and cloud connectivity to record stock levels in real time and make manual bookings superfluous.
What are the advantages of an automated warehouse management system?
Automated warehouse management systems reduce stock / inventory by up to 50%, eliminate manual booking errors and ensure permanent inventory transparency. As a system for strategic stock and requirements planning, they also support forward-looking scheduling, trigger automatic reorders, prevent missing parts and increase productivity. They also enable withdrawals to be allocated to specific individuals and offer 24/7 availability without additional personnel costs.
For which industries are warehouse management systems suitable?
The warehouse management systems from DIGI SENS are suitable for managing spare parts in an industrial environment for almost all industries with warehousing: including production and manufacturing, workshops and maintenance, logistics and trade as well as construction. Companies with high material turnover, decentralized warehouse structures or strict compliance requirements benefit in particular.
What is the difference between classic and intelligent warehouse management systems?
Traditional warehouse management systems require manual bookings using scanners or terminals. Intelligent systems such as e-nventory® record withdrawals and returns fully automatically using sensor technology (RFID, load cells, cameras). This completely eliminates booking in and out processes, stocks are available in real time and the system works without additional personnel.
What does a warehouse management system cost?
Storage locations. Simple software solutions start at just a few thousand euros, while fully automated systems with sensor technology and hardware cost between 10,000 and 100,000 euros. The decisive factor is the ROI: intelligent warehouse management systems often pay for themselves within 12-24 months thanks to reduced stock / inventory, savings in personnel costs and the elimination of missing parts.
How long does it take to implement a warehouse management system?
The implementation time depends on the complexity. Simple cloud solutions are ready for use in just a few days.
Can a warehouse management system be integrated into existing software?
Yes, modern warehouse management systems can be seamlessly integrated into existing ERP, merchandise management and production systems. Inventory data, orders and transaction data are automatically synchronized via standardized interfaces (API, EDI, CSV import/export). Cloud-based systems also offer real-time connectivity without the need for a complex server infrastructure.
What functions should a modern warehouse management system have?
A modern warehouse management system should offer the following core functions: automatic inventory recording in real time, permanent inventory without manual counting, automatic reordering when minimum stock levels are reached, access control and withdrawal logging for specific individuals, cloud-based reporting and analytics, integration into existing systems (ERP, merchandise management), mobile access options and support for VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory). With its software, Digi Sens enables the control and monitoring of warehouse processes.
How do warehouse management systems improve security of supply?
The software for professional order and order management continuously monitors inventories and triggers automatic reorders before materials run out. Thanks to intelligent demand forecasts based on historical consumption data, stock levels are optimally dimensioned – neither too low (missing parts) nor too high (capital commitment). The 24/7 availability and real-time overview also ensure maximum transparency and rapid response options.
What does VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) mean for warehouse management systems?
VMI (Vendor Managed Inventory) means a supplier-controlled consignment warehouse: the supplier has access to the inventory data of the warehouse management system and replenishes the warehouse independently. Only the material actually withdrawn is paid for. This reduces the customer’s capital commitment to zero, but still ensures availability. Modern warehouse management systems support VMI through external access rights and automated supplier notifications.
