Optimization of logistics processes

Smartwarehousing at its best

Centric is one of the key players in the warehouse management systems (WMS) market. It focuses mainly on logistics operations within the Benelux. With Locus WMS and In&Out WMS, Centric can offer a configured solution for any logistics challenge.

Centric configures its software with a very rich range of functionalities. The product roadmap is developed in consultation with the customer, projects are tuned to his requirements. The high-end application in the portfolio is Locus WMS that supports all methods and practices within warehouse logistics.

In response to the growing success of e-commerce, Locus WMS offers the ability to manage a mix of orders. Both B2B and B2C, and even a combination of both in the same warehouse. Also for a wide variety of product sizes.

Difficult to treat products

Automation, mechanization and robotization are becoming increasingly important in large distribution centers. All these different resources can also be controlled by Locus WMS. The software is strong in extensive control. It determines what is the optimal task for each employee or mechanical component at that particular moment. With lead times becoming ever shorter and volumes and complexity increasing, Locus WMS is an ideal tool for optimizing process efficiency.

For companies that need less complex control, there is In&Out WMS. The system is more approachable and offers more operator freedom. This rather registrative system says what needs to be done but leaves the organization of it to the people on the floor. Definitely an interesting system for difficult to handle products, where extensive automation is not appropriate. ■
