Nowhere is retail growth as great as the eCommerce sector. Nowhere is the old warehouse paradigm anachronistic. The old warehouse is no more as the RF gun, constant verifications, small keypads, and hard to read screens are quickly becoming yesterday's technology. Tablets are replacing the RF gun. New tablet-based warehouse operations systems bring warehouses into the future today. Warehouse Mobile Solutions' WarehouseOS was recently featured in Robotics and Automation News, authored by manufacturing journalist, Thomas R. Cutler.

One of the biggest challenges faced by retailers during the holidays is a dramatic increase in order volume. For the period including Black Friday and Cyber Monday, companies can see those volumes increase by as much as 400 percent. To meet this demand, many businesses must bring in temporary warehouse workers and get them trained and working quickly. The tablet-based Inventory Management App, which runs on the Warehouse Mobile Solutions WarehouseOS, is helping companies meet this challenge. Warehouse Mobile Solutions CEO Tim Hoj said the easy-to-navigate user interface means warehouse personnel need almost no training before performing warehouse tasks such as receiving, putting away, picking and packaging.

The Inventory Management App offered by Warehouse Mobile Solutions is helping warehouses prepare for the busy holiday season. Warehouse Mobile Solutions was recently featured in Pymnts.com.

A warehouse challenge that companies are facing today includes keeping up during Cyber Monday/Black Friday. Cyber Monday and Black Friday is a "make or break" time for companies. Order volumes might increase by 400% for a week which puts a big strain on warehouse operations. Most companies bring in temporary workers to help them meet the needs of their customers. One major problem with temporary workers is they do not know and understand the company's products. This requires the companies experienced employees to help train and manage the temporary workers.

A warehouse challenge that companies are facing today includes locating product. Many warehouses don't have any tools to help keep track of where the inventory is located. These operation rely heavily on "tribal knowledge" or the memory/experience of the workers. This puts the company in a difficult place, if an experienced employee decides to leave the company before their busy season, the company will have a hard time replacing that employee because of the time it will take to train them on the products and how they can find them.
