# WMS Software for Acumatica

### The premier warehouse management system for Acumatica-connected companies

## ShipHawk’s Acumatica WMS Solution

Companies that are growing quickly and scaling operations to the next level traditionally have had two options for a warehouse management system (WMS): limited functionality designed for low-complexity operations or solutions that the largest companies in the world use that require intensive multi-year projects and massive budgets.

This is where ShipHawk WMS fits in: an Acumatica certified, agile, highly-flexible WMS that embraces best-in-class practices of the big WMS solutions yet is deployed as an easy-to-use solution designed to address the fast-paced demands of scaling companies.

## Improve Acumatica ERP and WMS efficiencies

Labor is the largest expense in any distribution center so labor inefficiency has a massive direct impact on the bottom line. ShipHawk WMS can help you achieve greater labor efficiencies at a reduced cost and increase throughput. Other key benefits of ShipHawk WMS include:

- Leverage your distribution centers to work efficiently and reduce wasted time
- Minimize to only essential travel of people and inventory in the warehouse
- Maximize space/cube utilization and storage costs to existing space
- Optimize the placement of inventory
- Use task sequencing and scheduling
- Reduce exceptions and see your team’s throughput increase
- Minimize inventory handling

## Properly executed bin utilization makes efficient use of your entire warehouse

When assessing quantity and location, it is common to find a few cartons in a bin location that has space for a full pallet, or a bin for every item where some nest nicely together in a single bin and may even be sold together often.

Our team will work with you to establish your best bin utilization improvement opportunities so you can get every inch possible in your current and future spaces. Some areas of opportunity for better utilization are the velocity and capacity of:

- Dock space
- Aisles
- Cross aisles
- Storage lanes
- Wasted rack space
- Wasted bin space
- Processing areas

## How important are license plates in a warehouse?

The use of license plates becomes invaluable as you increase the number of SKUs sold, increase the number of employees that travel the warehouse picking items, and need accurate tracking of every item at all times.

Here is a sample list of data captured and accessible when using license plates:

- Item
- Quantity
- Location
- Inventory status
- Manufacture date
- Expiration date
