The Softeon Warehouse Management System (WMS) provides a platform for optimizing distribution processes, with a broad set of capabilities that comprehensively handle the basics (receiving, putaway, inventory management, order picking, loading, shipping, etc.), but which also offers more advanced features to help customers gain a competitive edge.

Distributed Order Management (DOM) systems have become critical to supply chain execution, notably in omnichannel fulfillment but in many additional applications as well. DOM can be used to automate, optimize and orchestrate order fulfillment processes, based on granular visibility to orders, inventory, service requirements, costs and constraints. Softeon provides a feature-rich DOM solutions that supports a number of use cases, both within omnichannel and beyond. In omnichannel fulfillment, for example, companies use Softeon DOM to enable new processes (such as order on-line, pick-up in store, or support for new consumer “points of interaction”) without changing existing systems. It is also used to determine optimal order sourcing across the network based on advanced rules for how to run the business. But Softeon’s DOM solution provides a solution for many other scenarios, including centralized “order hub” functionality for manufacturers and wholesalers, managing client process requirements for 3PLs, optimizing the inbound flow of goods, and much more. DOM delivers significant value for many companies on its own, but increasingly we see requirements for an integrated DOM-WMS solutions. Softeon is a market leader in joint DOM-WMS deployment.

After years of only incremental advances in Warehouse Management System capabilities, Softeon delivers a step-change in WMS technology, with a new Warehouse Execution System (WES) solution that simulates, optimizes and orchestrates order picking and replenishment. Softeon's WES comes seamlessly integrated with its own powerful WMS solution, but can easily work with any existing WMS to deliver double digit productivity gains while improving throughput and customer service. With Softeon WES, you will be able to close the gap between theoretic throughput of a DC and actual results, and meet demand at the least possible cost in both automated and non-automated DCs. Softeon is the first to bring simulation at multiple levels to analyze and improve near and longer term decision-making as part of the WMS/WES. The new WES also leverages a dynamic rules engine and machine learning to make real-time decisions in a way that reduces dwell times and supports what we call "flow distribution.” The WES also natively integrates with a wide variety of picking technologies, from Voice to mobile robots, ushering in a new generation of the "smart DC." The system release work to the floor with a dramatically reduced need for human intervention, moving operations towards the fully autonomous WMS.
