American Hotel’s Old WMS & Limitations
Used an integrated inventory management system in ERP
Key pain points (dilemmas) with old system:
User-intensive dispatching for order picking
Excess travel from inefficient task management
Ineffective order processing
Very labor intensive processing (high labor cost to pick)
