What is Warehouse Management? Benefits, Processes, & Strategies

Any business that stores items in a warehouse knows that effective management is the difference between fulfilling customer orders quickly and accurately while keeping costs down versus hearing complaints about delayed or inaccurate shipments and higher operating costs.

Video: What Is a Warehouse Management System?

What is warehouse management.

Warehouse management encompasses the principles and processes involved in running the day-to-day operations of a warehouse. At a high level, this includes receiving and organizing warehouse space, scheduling labor, managing inventory and fulfilling orders. Zoom in closer and you’ll see that effective warehouse management involves optimizing and integrating each of those processes to ensure all aspects of a warehouse operation work together to increase productivity and keep costs low.

Benefits of Warehouse Management

Warehouse operations are generally invisible to customers, but they play a vital behind-the-scenes role in ensuring on-time delivery. To achieve this goal, good warehouse management ensures all warehouse processes run as efficiently and accurately as possible. For example, warehouse management involves optimizing the use of warehouse space to maximize inventory storage; making inventory easy for staff to find; ensuring adequate staffing; efficiently fulfilling orders; and coordinating communication with suppliers and transportation companies so materials arrive and orders ship on time.

The benefits of good warehouse management—namely fast, high-quality service at low cost—can ripple out to the entire supply chain, strengthening relationships with suppliers as well as customers.

But given the many elements involved, optimizing warehouse management can be a complex task. That’s why many organizations are turning to warehouse management systems for help.

What Is a Warehouse Management System?

A warehouse management system (WMS) is a software solution that aims to simplify the complexity of managing a warehouse. Often provided as part of an integrated enterprise resource planning (ERP) suite of business applications, a WMS can support and help to optimize every aspect of warehouse management. For example, a WMS can:

• Leverage data and automation to conduct demand analyses, forecast sales and create efficient daily operating plans.
• Provide real-time insight into inventory location and quantity.
• Share data with other ERP modules or standalone software products, such as accounting software and transportation management solutions, to increase the efficiency of business operations.
• Monitor and report productivity to offer a deeper understanding of how efficiently your warehouse is operating and where you can make improvements to warehouse geography and optimize space.
• Create step by step directions to guide users through daily processes—such as receiving, picking and packing orders—using predefined rules.

Inventory Management vs Warehouse Management

Before getting into the details of warehouse management, it may help to understand a few common terms. For example, the terms inventory management and warehouse management are often used interchangeably, but there are key differences:

Inventory management

Inventory Management is centered on efficiently and effectively ordering, storing, moving, and picking the materials needed to make products or fulfill orders.

Warehouse management

Warehouse Management is a broader term that includes other aspects of warehouse operations, such as warehouse organization and design, labor, order fulfillment, warehouse monitoring and reporting.

Stock Management

Stock management is often used as another term for inventory management, but it’s important to recognize the difference between “stock” and “inventory,” particularly for companies involved in manufacturing products. Stock generally refers to finished product ready for sale or distribution. Inventory, however, includes everything in the warehouse: raw materials, materials that are in the process of being built into products and finished products (stock).

Stock management is therefore a subset of inventory management that focuses specifically on holding as little stock as possible—to save space and costs—while still being able to meet customer demand.

Principles of Warehouse Management

Understanding the general principles of warehouse management can help you focus your efforts to optimize the way your warehouse operates. These principles include:

Know your purpose . A warehouse operation must first and foremost know its objectives. For example, do your customers have specific delivery requirements? Does your inventory need specialized storage? Additionally, all warehouse operations aim to use warehouse space, labor and equipment as efficiently as possible.

Comprehensive control. Warehouse management involves coordinating complex processes involving many moving parts: people, equipment, orders and inventory. Warehouse managers need to be able to track each process in order to ensure it’s running smoothly and solve the problems that inevitably occur. Quality control is critical to ensure orders are fulfilled accurately.

Flexibility and resilience. Warehouse managers have to be able to change plans on the fly, whether it’s because materials have arrived damaged or because inclement weather is delaying shipments. It’s also important to be able to adjust workflows to maximize efficiency, whether that involves rearranging warehouse space or reimagining picking processes.

Customer focus. On-time delivery, with the correct product, is one of the most important metrics when it comes to customer service and satisfaction. To deliver on time, you need to be able to fulfill orders quickly and accurately.

Data-driven decision making . Even if every warehouse process appears to be running without a hitch, it doesn’t mean processes are operating as efficiently as possible. A WMS can help you pinpoint and analyze areas that need improvement.

Warehouse Management Processes

Warehouse management includes six core processes. Each process influences the efficiency of the next, so every step must be optimized for the warehouse operation to run like a well-oiled machine:

• Receiving. Check in and log incoming items. Verify that you’re receiving the right quantity, in the right condition, at the right time.
• Put-away. Move items from the receiving dock to their correct storage locations.
• Storage. Safely store and logically arrange inventory to enable fast and accurate picking.
• Picking. Collect the items needed to fulfill sales orders.
• Packing. Prepare the picked items for shipment. They must be safely packed into the correct packaging with an accurate packing slip.
• Shipping. Send out the finalized sales orders, ensuring that they are on the right vehicle, at the right time, with the correct documentation, so customers receive their orders on time.

Warehouse Optimization

Optimizing your warehouse operation involves fine-tuning each of these warehouse management processes. For example, when receiving goods, an organization can label items with mobile barcodes or attach RFID tags to make them easier to find when picking. During put-away, a well-managed warehouse operation stores items in the minimum amount of space to maximize the capacity of the warehouse. Other best practices for warehouse optimization include storing popular items in easily accessible areas and separating items that can easily be mistaken for one another.

Warehouse Management Fulfillment Strategies

Selecting fulfillment strategies that match the business’s size and the volume and type of orders it receives can help the organization ship products faster, minimize waste and improve customer satisfaction. Applying picking strategies that match the type of orders that you receive can help maintain the most effective workflow. For example:

• Batch picking is a technique that can help you quickly fulfill multiple orders for the same product without wasting time by continually revisiting the same inventory location.
• Zone picking assigns pickers to different zones of SKUs. For each order, pickers are resonpsible for picking all SKUs from their designated zone.
• First expired, first out (FEFO) picking ensures perishable products and items make it to customers before specified expiration or sell-by dates. With FEFO, the products set to expire first are shipped first.
• First in, first out (FIFO) picking ensures the first products to come into the warehouse are the first to be distributed, which can help make sure older items are shipped before they can become obsolete.

Technology is also an important part of any warehouse management fulfillment strategy. Handheld mobile devices that display packing lists with item locations, serial numbers and lot numbers can help increase picking speed and accuracy. Software can recommend safe and cost-effective packing based on product dimensions to ensure each item gets shipped securely, with as little waste—and wasted space—as possible.

Warehouse Monitoring & Reporting

Measuring and tracking key performance indicators (KPIs)—operational statistics that indicate how well the warehouse is operating—can help pinpoint problems and highlight opportunities to improve efficiency and fulfill customer orders more quickly and accurately. For example, you can set a target for improved picking and packing accuracy, then make changes to your picking processes and measure whether those changes are effective in helping you achieve your goal.

Warehouse KPIs

Warehouse managers often track the following KPIs, among others:

• Receiving efficiency or productivity : The volume of goods received per warehouse operator, per hour. Higher scores indicate greater receiving efficiency, while lower scores indicate that there may be problems that should be investigated.
• Picking accuracy : The number of orders accurately picked divided by the total number of orders picked (including incorrect or short orders). The closer to 100% accuracy, the better.
• Order lead time : The average time it takes for an order to reach a customer once the order has been placed. For the highest customer satisfaction, the shorter the lead time, the better.
• Rate of product return : The rate at which sold goods are returned by customers, calculated by dividing the number of items returned by the number of items sold. To get a full picture of this KPI, it’s important to consider why products are being returned—a customer accidentally ordering the wrong product might not signify warehouse operation issues, but there is room for improvement if customers often receive incorrect products or damaged goods.
• Inventory turnover : How much inventory is sold and replaced in a given period of time. It’s calculated by dividing the total cost of goods sold during the period by the average cost of inventory during that period. This KPI reflects how efficiently a warehouse manages inventory to meet demand. In general, higher inventory turnover is better. If a warehouse overestimates demand, inventory turnover may be low. Too much slow-selling inventory can be costly—especially for businesses dealing with goods that have a predetermined shelf life.

Award Winning Warehouse Management Software

Warehouse Management Statistics

Global ecommerce has grown rapidly in recent years, and is expected to top $29 trillion by 2023 —accelerating a need for more warehouse space to match growing consumer demands. Ecommerce growth is expected to increase demands for U.S. warehouse space by 1 billion square feet by 2025. It’s not surprising that one survey, by trade publication Logistics Management , found 79% of warehouse operations were planning some type of expansion plan.

Given this growth, a top challenge faced by warehouse operations is the inability to attract and retain a qualified hourly workforce. To improve productivity, reduce operating costs and keep up with customer demand—all while combatting tight space and a tight labor market—warehouse operations are increasingly using technology to automate processes, with 85% using WMS according to the Logistics Management survey.

Choosing a Warehouse Management System (WMS)

Choosing the right WMS will depend on the specifics of your warehousing operation and what you want to achieve. Above all, the right WMS should help your organization achieve greater efficiency and fulfill orders more accurately so you can do more at a lower cost. Since a primary goal is to save money, ROI is key.

Additionally, a WMS should act as a guide to help all warehouse staff become more efficient in the workplace. To do so, the right WMS will provide real-time actionable insights into each aspect of your warehousing operation to help staff be more efficient and programmatic, including receiving, shipping, inventory, order fulfillment, and labor—while providing easy-to-understand statistics and reports that managers and workers can easily understand and then use to improve daily and long-term processes. A WMS should also be scalable so it can help your business grow and adapt to changing market conditions.

The right WMS  can take your warehouse operations to a higher level of efficiency, speed and order accuracy, helping to improve your company’s competitiveness and increase customer satisfaction while keeping operating costs down.

Warehouse management system overview

A WMS, or warehouse management system, is software that helps companies manage and control daily warehouse operations, from the moment goods and materials enter a distribution or fulfillment center until the moment they leave. WMS software systems are a key component of supply chain management and offer real-time visibility into a company’s entire inventory, in warehouses and in transit. In addition to inventory management, a WMS offers tools for picking and packing processes, resource utilization, analytics, and more.

WMS meaning: a warehouse management system is software that helps companies manage and control daily warehouse operations , from the moment goods and materials enter a distribution or fulfillment center until the moment they leave.

Now more than ever, wholesalers, third-party logistics (3PL) providers, and shippers are under pressure to fulfill and deliver omnichannel orders at the speed of Amazon. E-commerce sales have also surged. In 2019 alone, Statista reports that U.S. online retail sales amounted to US$343.15 billion – and they’re projected to reach almost $476.5 billion by 2024. While online sales and expectations for fast shipping are growing, the labor pool is shrinking. And until the COVID-19 pandemic took hold in mid-March of 2020, a low national unemployment rate made it difficult to find warehouse workers. Although the number of available workers is temporarily higher, post-COVID-19 warehouse labor will likely be scarce once again. These forces all create the need for faster, more efficient warehouse management and logistics processes.

A good WMS system can help by streamlining every facet of warehouse management – from receiving, put-away, and pick, pack, and shipping processes to inventory tracking and replenishment. And it organizes all of these activities from a single interface. Warehouse management systems also integrate with other tools, including basics like bar code scanning and RFID labeling, more advanced robotics and augmented reality (AR) wearables, and other mission-critical solutions, such as  transportation management systems  (TMS),  ERP , and logistics software .  

Five benefits of a warehouse management system

A robust, digital warehouse management system is essential for any business with on-hand inventory – and can help save money and gain new efficiencies in many areas. The top five benefits of a WMS system are:  

• Improved operational efficiency:  WMS systems automate and streamline warehouse processes from inbound receipts to outbound deliveries – for improved efficiency, smoother operations, and the ability to handle higher volumes. They reduce errors in picking and shipping goods and eliminate duplicate and unnecessary work. A WMS also shares data with ERP and transportation management systems, giving you a holistic outlook that extends beyond your warehouse and helps expedite the movement of goods.
• Reduced waste and costs:  If you have date-restricted or perishable stock, WMS software can identify which items need to be picked first, or which might need a sales push, to minimize waste. It can also help you determine the most effective use of warehouse space, from inventory placement to optimal travel paths. Some systems offer advanced simulations to create floor plans and place pallets, shelves, and equipment in the best locations to run at peak efficiency and save time and money.
• Real-time inventory visibility:  Using barcoding, RFID tagging, sensors, or other location tracking methods, a WMS system gives you real-time insight into your inventory as it moves into your warehouse, around it, and on to the next location. With this visibility, you can create more accurate demand forecasts, run a just-in-time inventory strategy, and improve traceability – which is especially important in the event of a recall .
• Improved labor management:  A WMS can help you forecast labor needs, create schedules, optimize travel time within a warehouse, and assign the right task to the right employee based on skill level, proximity, and other factors. A good WMS system can also assist in boosting employee morale by creating a more relaxed, organized, and safe environment where workers feel their time is valued and being used wisely. 
• Better customer and supplier relationships:  With a WMS, customers enjoy improved order fulfillment, faster deliveries, and fewer inaccuracies – which increases their satisfaction and loyalty and improves your brand reputation. Suppliers can also experience reduced wait times at loading bays and docks, for improved relations.

What does a WMS system do?

Any activities flowing into and out of the warehouse, and those that ripple out to the extended supply chain , can be improved with a good WMS – from receiving and storage to picking, packing, and shipping. The core features of a warehouse management system support these activities in the following ways.   

Receiving and put-away process

A WMS can help companies receive, process, and put away items in the most efficient way based on business rules and warehouse flow. Before warehouse management systems, a pen and paper were used to receive items and reconcile them against purchase orders and physical receipts – and some smaller warehouses still use that approach today. In fact, in a 2018 Peerless Research survey, 87% of respondents said they were handling materials manually during the receiving process. 

A WMS system supports using RFID technology and integration with billing and other software so that items can be automatically received, validated, and reconciled against digital purchase orders with the scan of a barcode, and with labels printed for easier storage and retrieval.  

Inventory management

Warehouse management software provides real-time visibility into an organization’s inventory across any location, including items in transit and in stores. It provides tracking information using automatic identification and data capture (AIDC) technology such as barcodes or RFID. And many systems support cycle counting and demand forecasting using advanced analytics and insights into product and vendor performance. With these insights, companies can adjust inventory levels on the fly to ensure there’s just enough stock to satisfy customer demand, whether in-store or online.  

Accurate inventory tracking and other practices are key to improving order rates – meaning orders that arrive complete, on time, undamaged, and with an accurate invoice. They can also help allocate inventory according to custom workflows and picking logic so that inventory can be moved faster, both into and out of the warehouse.     

Order picking, packing, and fulfilment

The most commonly cited place for packing and fulfillment activities is in the warehouse, according to a  Logistics Magazine survey . And ResearchGate  estimates  that the costs related to order picking make up 55% of the total cost of warehousing.  

WMS systems can help lower these costs by guiding the most efficient way to store, retrieve, and pack products. They also support picking technologies that streamline the process, such as radio frequency (RF) with and without scanning verification, pick-to-light and pick-to-voice technology, robotics, and algorithms that can help optimize picking paths.  

Some warehouse management solutions make it easier to fulfill orders using techniques such as single order picking, batch picking, zone picking, cross-docking, wave picking, “put” to order, put-wall systems, and more – all helping to streamline order fulfillment.  

Many warehouse systems integrate with transportation management and logistics software that allows for myriad ways to expedite the fulfillment process – generating bills of lading, packing lists, and invoices for shipments automatically, for example, as well as sending out automatic shipment notifications.  

With real-time tracking features, companies can keep tabs on whether packages arrive on time and to the correct destination.  

It pays to get this right. Best-in-class warehouse operations get the vast majority of shipments off the dock and in transit to the destination on time.  

Labor management

Getting insights into labor-related costs and productivity can help warehouses run leaner, more efficient operations. A WMS can provide real-time visibility into warehouse workers, labor costs, response times, productivity gaps, trends to plan, and more – so companies can react accordingly.

Besides providing key insights, many systems also support task interleaving based on factors such as priority or proximity to help minimize workers’ overall travel time as well as “deadheading” or wasted time. They can also help with planning and scheduling, either directly or through integration with other systems.

Yard and dock management

Features for yard and dock management can help truck drivers find the right loading docks quickly. Support for cross-docking, where goods arriving into the warehouse are immediately placed into outgoing shipments without interim storage, is ideal for fresh grocery products. The software helps with this by checking receiving scans against current sales orders, then notifying the receiver if the goods should be placed in a cross-docking location.  

Warehouse metrics and analytics

Real-time data can be automatically collected through a WMS instead of relying on manual data collection methods, eliminating keying errors and drastically speeding up the process. This data can also be integrated with analytics to track important metrics, such as on-time shipping, inventory accuracy, distribution costs, order or line fill rate, order cycle time, and more. The system can then create visual reports that can be easily shared to stakeholders and be used to make adjustments.  

Warehouse management systems in action

Warehouse management systems and tools are used in almost every industry, though they are most commonly relied upon by larger distributors, e-commerce fulfillment centers, and third-party logistics (3PL) providers – often with multiple warehouses. Pharmaceutical, healthcare, and cold storage companies are also common users. Frequently, WMS solutions are integrated with transport and logistics systems to improve transparency, efficiency, and savings.

Types of warehouse management systems

There are three main types of WMS software: standalone (on-premise and often a homegrown legacy system), cloud-based, and applications built into ERP or  supply chain management  platforms (either on-premise or hosted in the cloud). Each type of WMS has advantages and drawbacks, and the best type will differ from business to business: 

• Standalone WMS:  These systems are usually deployed on the company’s own premises using their own hardware. They can generally support greater customization (though these can be costly) and the organization can maintain tighter control over their data and software. Although the initial cost of the system is substantially higher than other options, once a company owns it, they own it. At the same time, updates, maintenance, and the costs associated with them are the responsibility of the organization. As the WMS ages, it becomes increasingly difficult to integrate with other platforms and to implement new technologies. 
• Cloud WMS: Cloud-based WMS systems can be rapidly deployed with lower up-front costs. Delivered as software-as-a-service (SaaS), they provide more flexibility to support seasonal and other changing market conditions – and they are easier to scale as companies grow. Through regular updates, warehouse management in the cloud offers a quicker path to innovation. And someone else takes on the burden of maintaining and updating the system. SaaS vendors also invest a lot of money and expertise into security measures and provide disaster recovery capabilities. Cloud warehouse management systems can also be more easily integrated with other solutions.
• Integrated ERP and SCM-based WMS:  Some warehouse management systems are built as modules or applications that integrate with ERP and supply chain platforms. The advantage of these is that they are able to play better with other solutions in overlapping areas, such as accounting and business intelligence. They provide a holistic view across the business and logistics chain to allow for end-to-end transparency and for warehousing and logistics processes to be orchestrated and executed together. Ultimately these capabilities can be used to optimize operations and provide fast, agile fulfillment experiences. 

Smart warehousing technology

To meet changing customer buying patterns, channels, and expectations – and to keep pace with evolving markets and new disruptions – companies need smart warehousing technologies, from AI and machine learning to autonomous robots.  

Warehouse automation

Automation technologies are having a significant impact on warehouses and distribution centers. Warehousing workflows and processes that can be streamlined through automation include data collection, barcoding, scanning, picking and packing, shipping, and inventory tracking. This automation makes it possible to operate much more efficiently and scale to changing demand. It also cuts down on human errors such as keying in the wrong shipping address or SKU.

Voice-picking technology

Voice picking, also known as voice-directed warehousing and pick-by-voice, allows operators to carry out tasks and communicate when they’ve been completed without having to use paper or their hands and eyes. Operators use a voice-picking device, usually a voice headset or a voice-dedicated terminal, to receive spoken instructions from the WMS system about where and when to pick incoming orders. Workers can use everyday language to send real-time updates to the warehousing system, including when batches are completed.  

Mobile devices

Frontline warehouse workers depend on mobile devices to do their jobs more efficiently. In the 2020 Warehouse DC Equipment  survey , 73% of participants were using smartphones and tablets, 55% bar code scanners, and 18% GPS technology (with 28% planning to deploy GPS in the next 12 months). A WMS that can support integration with these technologies is critical.  

AI and internet of things (IoT) in warehouse management

Artificial intelligence and the IoT are being increasingly folded into warehouse operations. They promise to help businesses respond dynamically to rapidly changing warehousing conditions instead of having to follow pre-defined rules. IoT sensors provide the data and AI can analyze it and make advanced predictions that weren’t previously possible. The two technologies work hand-in-hand to help companies shift to a demand-driven warehousing model.

IoT data flows into the WMS from myriad locations, including from material handling equipment such as conveyors, smartphones and handheld devices, passive radio beacons, RFID, and more. AI systems take this data and transform it into usable insights, such as trends, predictive models, and other algorithms that help businesses make important decisions based on current conditions. These technologies can be put to work to help manage routing and labor movement, batch orders, slot inventory dynamically, and much more.  

Warehouse robots

Robots that operate in warehouses rely on AI and machine learning to make decisions based on input from their surroundings. And by using a combination of video, audial, thermal, and haptic sensors, robots can measure ambient temperature and even perceive touch. If integration is supported, WMS software directs their activities. 

There are a variety of robots used in distribution centers and warehouses today that can augment some workforce tasks and automate others.   

Automated guided vehicles (AGVs), for example, use a track or magnetic stripe to transport inventory around the warehouse, while autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) rely on onboard sensors, computers, and maps to navigate the warehouse and reroute when needed. AMRs can identify information on packages to assist with sorting and inventory checks. Aerial drones are fitted with optical sensors and use deep learning technologies to scan items in high and dangerous places quickly and upload the latest counts to the WMS system, provided that system can support the integration. And automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) can store and retrieve items aided by software that directs their operations. These can take the form of shuttles, cranes, or even climbing robots.

There are a wealth of advantages to using robots in the warehouse, the most obvious being increased speed of operations. But worker safety and morale can also improve as dangerous and mundane jobs are replaced with more strategic tasks.   

Augmented and virtual reality apps

Augmented reality  (AR) technology involves using a camera to capture a real environment, such as an aisle in a warehouse, and then overlays instructions or information on that environment – on a mobile device. AR smart glasses, for example, allow operators to carry out tasks without using their hands. These apps can map out routes, show where bins are located, and more. Virtual reality (VR) technologies are also being used for everything from training lift truck operators to making delivery routes safer.
