All those warehouses that have survived up to now on old-school manual processes? They’re not working anymore.

Retailers and distributors today are being forced to up their game in response to customer demands for rapid, efficient and reliable delivery of orders. That’s especially true within the warehouse, which can no longer get by with inefficient manual tasks and systems. On this episode, we learn about the pain points and possible cures for warehouses, and why automation is a must, from Jerry Beaston, senior product manager with Infor WMS. He explains what’s needed to link up multiple disparate systems so that data flows smoothly and enables the use of critical analytics. We hear about possible future enhancements to software systems, and we ask the question: Why aren’t more warehouses automating right now? Hosted by Bob Bowman, Editor-in-Chief of SupplyChainBrain.
