  • Warehouse Technologies
  • Warehouse Insights

In a recent survey conducted, we gained valuable insights into the top technology challenges faced by warehouse operations. Here's a condensed overview of the findings:

  1. Inventory Management: The majority of respondents highlighted inventory management and cycle counting as their biggest challenge. Issues included:

    • No inventory software system in place for small organizations.
    • Large organizations struggling with too much inventory, stored across multiple locations.
    • Medium-sized organizations dealing with a high number of SKUs to count.
  2. Technical Training Needs: There is a clear need for ongoing technical training for warehouse associates, as mentioned by respondents. This presents an opportunity for VAR and ISV organizations to offer regular virtual or in-person training programs.

  3. Wireless Connectivity and Network Reliability: Dropped zones and unreliable wireless connectivity were major concerns, especially for larger organizations. This led to disruptions in operations and challenges in maintaining network functionality.

  4. WMS Implementation and Usability: Flawed Warehouse Management Software (WMS) implementations, incomplete training, and complex software systems were cited as technology-related issues. User error due to inadequate training also contributed to operational challenges.

  5. Dream Technologies: Respondents shared their wish lists for new technologies if money wasn't an issue, including upgraded WLAN/WiFi connectivity, barcode scanners, RFID/RF scanners, and warehouse management software.

Technological advancements are driving significant transformations in warehouse and manufacturing operations. The integration of cutting-edge solutions such as mobile computers, RFID systems, ADC technology products and wireless connectivity, around robust warehouse management systems (WMS) has modernized the supply chain operations at all levels.

  1. Mobile Computers and RFID Systems: Mobile computers offer real-time access to crucial data, allowing for efficient product placement, bin allocation, and order-picking tasks. RFID systems further enhance visibility by enabling automated tracking of inventory items throughout the warehouse, minimizing errors, improving accuracy and shortening the production times.
  2. ADC Technology Products: Automated Data Capture (ADC) solutions, including barcode scanners and label printers, integrated with a comprehensive WMS enables seamless data integration, providing managers with accurate insights into inventory levels, order status, and product movements.
  3. Wireless WI-FI Connectivity: BlueStar EMEA offers not only standard Wi-FI related equipment but also cellular data networks which provide uninterrupted connectivity and outstanding speed. Beyond just a backup solution for 4GLTE/5G, cellular takes center stage, driving network to new levels of performance and reliability.
  4. Device Track Management: Asset traceability and device management software (MDM) witing BlueStar´s offer are crucial in warehouse and manufacturing environments to maintain operational efficiency and reduce losses. Implementing RFID readers, barcode scanners, and handheld mobile computers enables precise tracking of assets, minimizing errors and preventing theft.
