Tecsys Launches E-Commerce Fulfillment-focused Omni™ WMS
for the North American Market
ATLANTA and MONTREAL, March 28,
2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Tecsys Inc. (TSX: TCS), an
industry-leading supply chain management software company, is
pleased to introduce to its North American market Omni™ WMS, an
agile SaaS-native warehouse management system designed to serve the
evolving omnichannel market that straddles the complexities between
hybrid e-commerce and traditional fulfillment modalities. From
kickoff to go live, Omni™ WMS is configured for rapid
implementation, speeding up the time to business value with
enterprise-class WMS capabilities. Well-established as a
sophisticated and bi-directionally scalable WMS solution in the
automation-driven warehouses of Europe, Omni™ WMS is a proven catalyst for
digital commerce execution, technology-mediated processes, and
centralized visibility across multiple warehouses. Optimized for
the midmarket, Omni™ WMS adds to Tecsys' SaaS WMS portfolio which
also includes the visionary Elite™ WMS solution for complex
distribution and specialty markets.
Omni™ WMS enables midmarket organizations to fast-track
fulfillment execution to meet customer commitments, while laying
the foundation for sustained warehouse productivity in the face of
labor and economic volatility. The system is designed to automate
processes, improve order accuracy, reduce operating costs and
attain high levels of service. Critically in today's warehouse
environment, Omni™ WMS is architected to integrate with a wide
array of warehouse automation technologies. There is equally a
focus on intuitive user experiences to create optimal working
conditions and higher efficiencies on the warehouse floor.
"The expectations of the digital consumer are fundamentally
changing how supply chains need to operate, and this is in turn
changing the technologies that warehouses need to have to keep
pace," explains Guy Courtin, vice
president of Industry and Advanced Technology at Tecsys. "The
dynamics of omnichannel and digital commerce, and the fulfillment
flexibility needed to blaze through higher volumes of smaller
orders, is a phenomenon already quite prevalent in much of
Europe, so by optimizing our Omni™
WMS for the North American market, we're introducing a mature
warehouse management system that has proven it can handle every
wrinkle of complexity headed our way."
Many warehouses were architected for the more traditional flow
of goods where containers or pallets would be received, stored,
broken down and shipped at the caseload to its next destination.
This conventional and linear movement of goods provided a
predictable baseline from which to drive efficiency. As various
forms of supply chain disintermediation – whether
direct-to-consumer, drop shipping, home delivery or other –
introduce complexity at every node of the distribution cycle, the
systems that underpin them are showing their limitations.
"We implemented the WMS just before Christmas shopping would
start, and I remember a day when we had received a lot of orders.
Normally it would have taken our warehouse workers a whole day to
process that many orders, but after two hours it was all picked and
packed. At that moment, I knew the system would pay off quickly,"
said Lars S. Sorensen, CEO of Eventyrsport.
With the North American introduction of Omni™ WMS, Tecsys seeks
to enable midmarket organizations to streamline today's more
complex warehouse operations while prioritizing the specific
characteristics of world-class warehouse management practices. As
the general population is further influenced by the digital fraying
of distribution channels, supply chain organizations face the
undeniable reality that traditional models and the legacy software
that powers them, are inadequate. Omni™ WMS is Tecsys' answer to
this challenge; an agile, quick-to-deploy, digital commerce and
automation-ready WMS with world-class capabilities in an
out-of-the-box package.
"The WMS industry has not kept up with market needs," continues
Courtin. "The solutions are rigid, they are either not robust
enough or too complicated, and they do not scale to accommodate a
business' needs for today and challenges of tomorrow. Omni™ WMS
meets these challenges head on while rewriting the enterprise
software playbook. This is an enterprise-grade system that assumes
enterprise-level complexity with the dexterity you expect of a
cloud-native solution."
