COVID-19 has affected all dimensions of business, including warehousing. According to the latest report by Mordor Intelligence LLP, the warehouse services market is expected to grow 10 percent by 2025. Along with demand for warehouse services, customers’ needs are also growing. Customers are demanding more additional services, more transparency in inventory and delivery, and faster delivery times.
To meet customers’ needs, logistics companies have begun to innovate and automate warehouse processes. However, simply introducing technology isn’t enough. Your warehouse should also have a warehouse management system (WMS) that ensures all operations are carried out like clockwork.
But with the advent of innovation and process automation, our clients often run into the problem that existing WMSs can’t cope with their tasks and bring the expected results. If you’re facing this problem, this article is for you. We share the main signs that your WMS needs to be modernized and tips for improving it.

As you can see, some of the solutions can be implemented by improving your existing WMS. But there are also global implementations like the transition to a microservices architecture that may prompt you to move to a new system. While such a solution takes time to develop and deploy, it’s an investment that will pay off in your warehouse operations in the future. However, keep in mind that it’s best to make upgrade decisions only after consideration and research.
