Today’s technology enables businesses to connect and compete at an incredibly high level, and the warehousing industry is no exception. Things like cloud computing and advanced software have virtually revolutionized the warehouse management function, streamlining operations, maximizing efficiency and ultimately boosting profitability. One area where warehousing professionals can benefit from technological advancements is by adopting a wireless environment. Here’s why.

Enhanced Inventory Counts – Think of everything that goes into conducting a comprehensive inventory count. Doing so successfully requires the cooperation of a broad spectrum of team members from various departments, not to mention the physical logistics. Incorporating wireless network connectivity will facilitate a faster, more efficient process for betteroptimization of time and resources.

Improved Asset Tracking – To maximize profitability, management must have a good handle on what assets are where and how they’re being used at any given moment. Traditional methods for doing so were both time-consuming and inaccurate. By leveraging wireless technology, such as the use of RFID tags, management will be able to maintain constant visibility and control over all company assets in real-time.

Better Communication – Warehouse supervisors and team leads cannot be everywhere at once, which makes managing employees more challenging, especially for larger or multi-location facilities. Furthermore, when a team member cannot quickly and easily access his or her manager for direction or feedback, it can lead to costly and frustrating bottlenecks and delays. Wireless mobile communication devices eliminate these challenges and facilitate instant communication on-demand.

Increased Flexibility – With wireless technology and advanced warehousing software, those in command now have the ability to complete many of their day to day duties from anywhere. For instance, rather than having to report back to an office and sit behind a physical computer screen, a supervisor can quickly complete forms, update or run reports and perform almost any web-based activity wherever they happen to be at any given moment right from a wireless device.

The warehousing industry is evolving at a rapid pace, thanks in large part to wireless technology. By leveraging these latest advancements, you can create a more efficient, productive environment which will ultimately contribute to greater success for the organization as a whole.
