We always look forward to Gartner for Supply Chain's Critical Capabilities Report for WMS and this year’s edition reinforced many of the priorities we focus on daily in our work. First and foremost, Gartner reminds us of the importance of choosing not the best WMS overall, but the right WMS to match your specific needs. While an advanced platform like Blue Yonder or Softeon is an excellent choice for many companies, it may be more complex than necessary for certain businesses. Equally, a more basic solution may not have the flexibility and adaptability needed for companies with complex supply chains, significant volumes or ambitious growth plans. If you’re in the process of evaluating WMS solutions, read the full report for valuable insights to help you make your decision: https://lnkd.in/g8P9Wd5F If you have any questions, please reach out. Our team is here to share their insights and learnings to support you in your decision.
