Inventory Management and Control

  • Real-Time Inventory Updates

    Integrate your Warehouse Management System (WMS) with ERP and eCommerce platforms to maintain real-time visibility of inventory levels. This ensures accurate stock counts across all channels and prevents overselling or stockouts.

  • Automated Stock Replenishment

    Automatically trigger purchase orders or stock transfers when inventory falls below predefined thresholds. Flowgear can integrate your WMS with supplier systems to ensure timely stock replenishment without manual intervention.

  • Batch and Lot Tracking

    Integrate systems to simplify the tracking of batch and lot numbers, ensuring full traceability of products throughout the warehouse and supply chain. This is essential for managing expiration dates or product recalls.

Multi-Warehouse Management

  • Centralized Warehouse Visibility

    Integrate multiple WMS platforms across various locations to centralize data into a single interface. This gives you real-time visibility into stock levels and operations across all warehouse locations.

  • Automated Inter-Warehouse Transfers

    Automatically trigger inter-warehouse stock transfers when inventory runs low in one location but is available in another. Flowgear can simplify the transfer process, reducing manual work and improving inventory balance.

  • Regional Inventory Optimization

    Use data from integrated systems to optimize inventory distribution across multiple warehouses. This ensures that stock is strategically placed to minimize shipping costs and delivery times to customers.

Compliance and Safety

  • Automated Safety Protocols

    Integrate your WMS with safety management systems to monitor compliance with safety regulations. Flowgear can simplify the reporting of incidents, track safety certifications, and ensure equipment maintenance is scheduled and completed on time.

  • Hazardous Material Tracking

    Automate the tracking and handling of hazardous materials by integrating WMS with compliance systems. This ensures that hazardous materials are stored, handled, and shipped in compliance with regulations, minimizing the risk of fines and accidents.

Warehouse Performance and Analytics

  • Warehouse Performance Dashboards

    Integrate your WMS with business intelligence tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau) to create real-time dashboards that monitor KPIs such as pick rate, pack rate, order accuracy, and inventory turnover.

  • Warehouse Utilization Reporting

    Track space utilization within the warehouse by integrating WMS data with analytics platforms. Flowgear helps you optimize warehouse layout and storage strategies to maximize capacity and reduce handling time.

  • Cost and Efficiency Analysis

    Connect your WMS with ERP and accounting systems to track operational costs, labor expenses, and resource usage. This enables better financial control and cost-saving opportunities through data-driven decisions.

Returns and Reverse Logistics Management

  • Automated Returns Processing

    Integrate your WMS with your eCommerce or ERP system to simplify the returns process. Flowgear can trigger return workflows, ensuring that returned goods are processed efficiently, restocked when appropriate, or flagged for disposal.

  • Reverse Logistics Optimization

    Integrate logistics and WMS systems to track and manage returned goods, ensuring that the returns are processed quickly and inventory is updated in real time. This improves warehouse efficiency and reduces the cost of managing returned goods.

Inventory Replenishment and Supply Chain Integration

  • Automated Supplier Orders

    Flowgear can integrate your WMS with supplier platforms to simplify stock replenishment. When inventory levels drop below a set threshold, purchase orders are automatically generated and sent to suppliers.

  • Supply Chain Visibility

    Integrate your WMS with supply chain management tools to provide real-time visibility into the movement of goods from suppliers to your warehouse. This allows for better coordination of inbound shipments and reduces lead times.

  • Vendor-Managed Inventory (VMI)

    Enable vendors to manage and replenish their stock directly by integrating your WMS with supplier systems. Vendors can monitor inventory levels in real time, ensuring that they deliver stock before shortages occur.

Warehouse Resource Planning

  • Labor Management and Scheduling

    Connect your WMS with workforce management tools to optimize labor schedules based on real-time demand and workload. Automate the assignment of tasks to warehouse workers, ensuring efficient resource allocation.

  • Workload Forecasting

    Integrate your WMS with sales and demand forecasting tools to predict workload fluctuations. This helps with labor planning and ensures you have the right resources available during peak periods or high-demand seasons.

Warehouse Automation and Robotics

  • Integration with Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (ASRS)

    Integrate your WMS with ASRS or robotics systems to simplify the movement and retrieval of inventory. Flowgear enables seamless communication between systems, improving picking accuracy and reducing labor costs.

  • Automated Inventory Counting

    Connect your WMS with barcode scanners, RFID systems, or drones to simplify cycle counting and physical inventory checks. Real-time updates are made to your inventory systems, minimizing discrepancies and improving accuracy.

  • Robotics and Conveyor Systems

    Integrate robotics and conveyor systems with your WMS to simplify material handling, reducing the need for manual intervention and speeding up order processing.

Order Fulfillment and Shipping

  • Automated Order Picking and Packing

    Connect your WMS with your eCommerce or ERP system to simplify the order fulfillment process. Flowgear ensures that pick-pack-ship processes are streamlined, reducing manual errors and speeding up order completion.

  • Shipping Label Generation

    Integrate with shipping carriers (e.g., FedEx, UPS, DHL) to automatically generate shipping labels, schedule pickups, and track shipments. This reduces manual data entry and ensures smooth communication with logistics providers.

  • Order Consolidation

    Automatically consolidate multiple orders into a single shipment when applicable, optimizing shipping costs and reducing the number of packages sent.

eCommerce Integration for Warehouse Efficiency

  • Omnichannel Fulfillment

    Integrate your WMS with eCommerce platforms (e.g., Shopify, Magento) and marketplaces (e.g., Amazon, eBay) to manage orders from multiple sales channels. Flowgear ensures that orders are automatically routed to the appropriate warehouse for fulfillment, improving delivery times.

  • Real-Time Order Tracking

    Automatically update your eCommerce platforms with real-time order and shipping status, providing customers with visibility into their orders from the warehouse to delivery.

  • Inventory Sync Across Channels

    Synchronize inventory levels across your warehouse and all sales channels to prevent overselling and ensure accurate availability for customers.
