HowToImplement integrated WMS
- Do your due diligence, perform an ROI calculation and keep that ROI focus
- Document your goals and objectives / the problems you need to solve
- Work closely with your vendor's implementation team to design the process
- Create a thorough implementation project plan
- Break it down into manageable pieces. Early successes = buy-in from your team
- For a fluid install have a pre and post implementation plan to manage the production environment (go-live)
- Test every function of the WMS to verify the setup; further testing is needed if modifications are required
- Training users when they are not responsible for warehouse functions to get their full attention
- Give your people pre-implementation practice time to get comfortable with the technology
- Document procedures for later retrieval by end users
- Assign personnel to manage the go-live that will work with users and troubleshoot
