Warehouse Mobility: A Foundation For A Leaner Warehouse — And A Leaner, More Profitable Supply Chain

Regardless of whether you are a manufacturer or distributor, the warehouse is a critical hub in your business. Through this central depot, everything must pass — from raw materials waiting to be manufactured into finished goods to product waiting for shipment downstream to a distribution center, retailer or end-customer. When movement of these materials are tracked as they move in, through and out of the warehouse, a real time view of your inventory becomes visible — from incoming shipments stored in the yard and at the dock to the product on your shelves and outgoing shipments being readied for delivery to your customer (or channel).

Following is a high level overview of how mobility streamlines individual warehouse functions, as well as how the mobilization of each core warehouse function provides a ‘big picture' real-time view of your warehouse.
