How to Determine if You Need a Warehouse Management System

* You need a greater range of picking options (e.g., wave, zone, consolidated).

* You must do retail (bulk) distribution, as well as direct-to-consumer fulfillment.

* You have trouble managing cross docking for back-order fulfillment (picking at receiving without item put-away).

* Or your current system can’t provide the workforce management and productivity tracking tools you need.
