Warehouse Management Systems Are Moving Beyond the Warehouse
Warehouse management systems are being asked to do more than ever before. In its September 2025 WMS 2025: Boosting Operations Beyond the Warehouse feature, Inbound Logistics explores how modern WMS platforms are evolving beyond traditional warehouse execution to become operational hubs connecting labor, automation, robotics, analytics and other supply chain technologies.
The article examines the growing importance of flexibility, scalability and adaptability as warehouse operations become more complex and businesses prepare for continued advances in AI and automation.
Datex is featured alongside other WMS providers, with Bryan Batchelder, Vice President of Product, sharing perspectives on cloud-native architecture, labor optimization, robotics integration and the evolving role of AI in warehouse operations. The feature also highlights how Footprint® WMS is designed to support these changing requirements.
