Warehouse Control Systems
Who's in charge here?
"Part of the warehouse control systems' attraction is that they help lighten the load of a DC's existing warehouse management
system or even enterprise resource planning (ERP) software, a general business application that also oversees manufacturing and finance...."
"...'When you have a highly automated building, the product flows are so customized that it's not
feasible to use a warehouse management system because decisions must be made in real time,' says
[Progress Group consultant Steve]Mulaik.
'WMS are not built for speed,' adds Stephen Martyn, chief executive officer of Glen
Road Systems Inc. (GRSI) in Conshohocken, Pa., the company that supplied the WCS for Koch Entertainment's distribution center.
