Asia-Pacific and U.S. Warehouse Management System Market Analysis and Size
Warehouse management systems can help companies receive, process, and put away items most efficiently on the basis of business rules and warehouse flow. Before warehouse management systems, pen and paper were used to receive items and reconcile them against purchase orders, physical receipts, and some smaller warehouses.
Warehouse management systems and tools are used in almost every industry. However, they are most commonly relied upon by larger distributors, e-commerce fulfilment centers, and third-party logistics (3PL) providers – often with multiple warehouses. Pharmaceutical, healthcare, and cold storage companies are also common users. Frequently, WMS solutions are integrated with transport and logistics systems to improve transparency, efficiency, and savings. Three main warehouse management systems (WMS) types are standalone, cloud, and integrated. Standalone WMS systems are deployed on-premise using the company’s hardware. Cloud-based WMS systems are delivered as scalable SaaS offerings in a public or private cloud. Integrated WMS systems are delivered as part of a broader enterprise resource planning (ERP) or supply chain management (SCM) solution.

Market Definition
The warehouse management system (WMS) is a software that helps companies to manage and control daily warehouse operations when goods and materials enter a distribution or fulfilment center until they leave. WMS software systems are a key component of supply chain management and offer real-time visibility into a company’s inventory in warehouses and transit. It refers to organizing and controlling every operation within the warehouse. It is considered a cornerstone of the logistics ecosystem as it comprises activities such as inventory balance, managing materials, pickup process, staff productivity, and monitoring the movement of goods.
Various functions of the warehouse management process are inventory tracking, picking and shipping, warehouse design, and visibility. The various benefits of a warehouse management system help to reduce operating costs, helps to track inventory visibility, boost security, labour management, and increased transparency. Warehouse management systems integrate with other tools, including barcode scanning and RFID labelling basics, more advanced robotics and augmented reality (AR) wearable, and other mission-critical solutions, such as transportation management systems (TMS) and logistics software.
