Study and projects

Designs of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS)

An independent draft of the management system of warehouse operations provides for an objective definition of the optimum requirements for a specific warehouse information system of the WMS category for optimum setting of the warehouse processes.

The resulting study in the form of the SRS document (Software Requirement Specifications) is a set of instructions for internal changes and warehouse process optimisation, introduction of bar codes, etc., and at the same time it may also serve as a guideline document for a tender for the supply of a suitable information system. Thanks to clearly defined and detailed requirements, the offers made by the prospective suppliers may be compared from the point of view of their functionality, which helps to eliminate the risk of selecting an unsuitable IS and increasing the costs subsequently due to additional modifications.

The study is usually followed up by mutual cooperation on the relevant project, which may involve drawing up of the project schedule, coordination of the tender proceedings or management of the project implementation up to the point of putting WMS into routine operation.
