To realize this purpose, they needed a Warehouse Management System (WMS) that integrates & compliments their robotics solution's capabilities while seamlessly communicating with all the parties in the eco-system. Their needs were:
• Capacity to handle large stock-keeping unit (SKU), high volume and eaches picking fulfillment

Ramco Logistics solution offered precisely what they were looking for - a Warehouse Management System exclusively designed for logistics business spanning distribution and e-commerce logistics.
