WMS · 3PL · EDI

WMS consulting, from layout to live operation.

The warehouse is where every plan becomes physical. We design and implement the execution layer — WMS, 3PL and EDI integration, outbound flows — so that what the ERP promises, the dock can keep.

The execution layer

Where plans meet forklifts.

A warehouse doesn't run on modules; it runs on flows — receiving, putaway, picking, staging, dispatch — and on the hundreds of exceptions between them. We design WMS landscapes against that physical reality first: layout, waves, exceptions, peak patterns. Then we configure, integrate, and take them live at the dock, next to the people who run it.

We carry warehouse and supply chain workstreams inside a pan-European Infor M3 CloudSuite engagement — 30 months and counting — including WMS design and 3PL/EDI integration that has to reconcile, message by message. Read the full track record →

WMS design & implementation

WMS

Embedded in the ERP or standalone beside it — chosen for your operation, not for a reseller margin.

  • Design against the physical flow first — layout, waves, exceptions
  • Configuration by the people who designed it
  • Migration and cutover a warehouse can actually execute
  • Go-live at the dock, with hypercare and a defined exit

3PL & EDI integration that reconciles

3PL · EDI

Integration is won message by message. We write the interface contracts down before the first message flows, and build reconciliation in from day one.

  • Interface contracts: source of truth, direction, reconciliation
  • Orders out, confirmations back, stock that matches on both sides
  • EDI flows with carriers, customers, and suppliers
  • Invoices that match — the test most integrations fail

A new warehouse, layout to live operation

GREENFIELD

From an empty floor to a running operation: layout, flows, systems, and the go-to-market logistics around it — one plan, one team.

  • Layout and flow design against real volumes
  • WMS and integration landscape, selected and implemented
  • Key-user enablement on your flows and exceptions
  • Go-live on a rhythm daily shipping can absorb

Outbound & multi-leg distribution

OUTBOUND

Staging, dispatch, transport legs, and the handovers between them — designed so peaks are handled by the system, not by spreadsheets and heroics.

  • Outbound design: staging, dispatch, transport legs
  • Carrier integration and labelling that holds at peak
  • Multi-leg flows with reconciled handovers
  • Exception routes with named owners
When it's time to call
  • Stock in the ERP and stock in the warehouse are two different numbers
  • Your 3PL sends confirmations nobody can match to orders
  • Outbound peaks are handled with spreadsheets and heroics
  • A new warehouse or 3PL is coming — and the integration is "still open"
Proof

Exercised under load, for 30 months.

Inside one continuous pan-European engagement, the warehouse workstream has carried WMS design, 3PL and EDI integration, and go-live after go-live — while every site kept shipping.

Questions we hear first

Asked before most warehouse projects.

Which WMS do you implement?

We are vendor-independent — no reseller margins steering the advice. Sometimes the right answer is the warehouse layer inside your ERP; sometimes a standalone WMS beside it. Our delivery depth is the warehouse, planning, and integration landscape around Infor M3 CloudSuite, and we say plainly when another tool fits better.

Can you fix a 3PL integration that is already live?

Yes — that is reconciliation work: we compare orders, confirmations, stock, and invoices on both sides, find where the numbers diverge, and repair the contract and the flows. Stock in the ERP and stock in the warehouse should be one number, not two.

Do you also design the physical side?

We design layout and flows against real volumes and peak patterns, and we stand at the dock during go-live. We are not a racking or equipment supplier — where hardware decisions arise, we write the requirements and stay on your side of the table.

How long does a WMS implementation take?

It depends on scope — one site or many, embedded or standalone, how many integrations. That is exactly what the Diagnose phase answers: a short, fixed-price assessment that ends in a plan with sequence, staffing, and risks — before you commit to anything.

Do you work with our existing 3PL?

Yes. A 3PL integration is a relationship with an interface in the middle. We write the contract down, build the reconciliations, and test with the people on both sides — replacement is rarely the answer.
