The core value of WMS is to reduce costs, improve efficiency, reflect and control the operation of each link in the warehouse, realize management before and after events, and create higher benefits for the enterprise.
Before the WMS system , the general warehouse was like this:
1. The warehouse management system is difficult to implement, and the placement of materials/finished products in the location planning is still chaotic, which increases the difficulty of operation;
2. Highly dependent on old employees, large turnover of personnel, low overall warehouse efficiency and high error rate;
3. The warehouse supervisor cannot grasp the real-time operation dynamics of the warehouse at any time, and the problem cannot be discovered or solved quickly;
4. The lack of accurate real-time inventory results in a large difference between the calculated inventory and the actual inventory and high inventory costs;
5. Lack of various professional statements to support management decision-making;
The impact after WMS can be summarized as "three highs and three lows":
Three lows
1. Reduce the risk of inventory occupation and backlog
The WMS system can update the inventory dynamics in real time. Once the outbound operation is completed, the inventory will automatically increase or decrease. The first-in, first-out delivery strategy focuses on the earliest goods, which reduces a large amount of sluggish materials and improves the inventory turnover rate.
2. Reduce the dependence on experience and operating error rate
The WMS system can guide employees in their work, such as where to place them when entering the warehouse, and where to find goods when leaving the warehouse. Thereby reducing dependence on older employees. At the same time, the system has an error prevention prompt. If the barcode number of the wrong location is scanned, an error message will be sent and the next operation will be prohibited, thus ensuring the accuracy of the operation.
3. Reduce warehouse operating costs
Abundant data reports reduce decision-making costs, data sharing reduces coordination trouble and duplication of labor, reduces communication costs, and speeds up turnover to reduce capital costs.
Three high
1. Improved access efficiency
By optimizing the storage operation process, combined with PDA handheld devices, loading and unloading tasks can be completed quickly, reducing the waiting time of trucks and ensuring timely delivery.
2. Improve inventory management capabilities
Through the inventory report, you can know the time, storage location, remaining quantity, remaining effective time and other information of each material/finished product in time to improve inventory management capabilities.
3. Improve the competitiveness of enterprises
Improve the efficiency and accuracy of warehouse operations, improve inventory management capabilities, and fundamentally improve the operational efficiency of enterprises. Time is cost, efficiency improvement is the biggest cost advantage, time and cost competitiveness is the biggest core competitiveness. In short, WMS system is one of the indispensable management systems in the process of enterprise development. It can not only realize the process, modularization and standardization of warehouse management, but also realize rapid response to customers by enhancing internal strength and controlling time and cost. Improve the core competitiveness of enterprises.
