Talk to us on 01234 672 617. **URL:** https://cubeerp.co.uk/software/warehouse-management-software/leicestershire We work with businesses right across Leicestershire, and the pattern is a familiar one: a system that was right when it was bought, extended past the point of sense, and now propped up by spreadsheets nobody wants to own. Warehouse Management is the part of that most people want to fix first. ## Details - **Solution:** Warehouse Management Software - **Group:** Inventory & supply - **Platform:** CubeERP (https://cubeerp.co.uk/platform) - **Location:** Leicestershire - **Distance from our Olney office:** 38 miles - well within our regular travel radius from Olney - **Postcode districts:** LE1, LE2, LE3, LE4, LE5, LE7, LE8, LE9, LE10, LE11 - **Also known as:** WMS software, Warehouse management system, Warehouse software, Pick and pack software, Warehouse control system ## Coverage Our Leicestershire coverage includes Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley, Melton Mowbray, Market Harborough and Coalville, and the LE1, LE2, LE3, LE4 and LE5 postcode districts. If you are in Leicestershire and not on that list, we almost certainly still cover you, so ask. ## What is included - **Directed put-away and picking:** Bin rules, item velocity, size and weight determine where stock goes and the order it is picked in, so the shortest sensible route is the default rather than a matter of experience. - **Wave, batch and zone picking:** Pick by order, by wave, in batches across multiple orders, or by zone with consolidation - whichever suits the profile of that day’s work. - **Verified packing:** Scan-verified packing with carton contents recorded, so a mis-pick is caught at the bench rather than discovered by the customer a week later. - **Carrier integration:** Rates, labels, manifests and tracking for the main UK and international carriers, with tracking numbers pushed back to the order and emailed to the customer automatically. - **Licence plates and pallets:** Pallet and container identifiers so a whole unit can move, ship or be counted in one scan, with contents known at every stage. - **Warehouse performance:** Lines per hour, pick accuracy, dock-to-stock time and open work by zone - measured continuously so a problem is a trend rather than a bad week somebody noticed. ## Real-world use cases ### Picking by memory **Scenario:** A distributor’s pick accuracy depended on two long-serving staff who knew where everything was. New starters took months to become productive, and holidays were visibly painful. **Outcome:** Directed picking on scanners made location knowledge unnecessary. New pickers reach full productivity in days, and accuracy no longer varies with who is on shift. ### A warehouse laid out in 2009 **Scenario:** Fast-moving lines were spread across the building because that was where space existed when they were introduced. Pickers were walking miles a day for no reason anybody had chosen. **Outcome:** Movement analysis drove a re-slot by velocity, and put-away rules now keep it that way. Walking distance dropped substantially without moving a single rack. ### Three courier portals **Scenario:** Despatch keyed addresses into three separate carrier websites, printed labels, then emailed tracking numbers manually. Two people were effectively employed retyping addresses. **Outcome:** Carrier selection, labelling and manifesting happen from the despatch record. Tracking reaches the customer automatically, and the retyping job disappeared. ## Figures - **Directed** Put-away and picking, not guesswork - **Scan** Verified packing before it leaves - **Auto** Labels, manifests and tracking emails ## Frequently asked questions **Do we need a full WMS, or is stock control enough?** If you have fewer than a few thousand picks a week and a small building, stock control with scanning is usually enough. Directed workflows earn their keep when the building is large, the team changes often, or accuracy is contractually important. **Will it work with our existing racking and labels?** Yes. Existing location labels can be imported, and where they are inconsistent we would rather relabel during implementation than build permanent workarounds around a numbering scheme nobody understands. **Which carriers do you support?** The main UK parcel and pallet networks, plus international integrators. Where a carrier has an API we integrate directly; where they do not, we produce their manifest format. New carriers are a configuration exercise, not a project. **Can it handle 3PL or bonded stock?** Third-party and customer-owned stock are held and reported separately from your own. Bonded and duty-suspended stock is supported where the customs regime requires it to be tracked distinctly. **What about goods-in from containers?** Container receipts can be booked against the purchase order with landed costs - freight, duty and clearance - apportioned across the lines, so item cost reflects what the goods really cost to get here. ## Related solutions - **Stock Control Software** - Multi-location stock with bin locations, barcode scanning, batch and serial traceability, and figures that are right first time. https://cubeerp.co.uk/software/stock-control-software/leicestershire - **Barcode & Traceability Software** - Batch and serial traceability from goods-in to despatch, with certificates attached and a recall answered in minutes. https://cubeerp.co.uk/software/barcode-traceability-software/leicestershire - **Wholesale & Distribution Software** - Trade pricing, multi-warehouse stock, fast order entry, pick-pack-despatch and carrier integration for wholesalers and distributors. https://cubeerp.co.uk/software/wholesale-distribution-software/leicestershire - **Order Management Software** - Take, allocate, fulfil and invoice orders from one screen - with live stock, part-shipments, back orders and contract pricing handled automatically. https://cubeerp.co.uk/software/order-management-software/leicestershire ## Contact - **Product:** CubeERP - **Trading name of:** Cube Systems Limited (company number 17220899, ICO registration number ZC216972) - **Email:** hello@cubeerp.co.uk - **Sales:** sales@cubeerp.co.uk - **Support:** support@cubeerp.co.uk - **Telephone:** 01234 672 617 (+441234672617) - **Address:** Unit 11, Olney Business Park, Osier Way, Olney, Buckinghamshire, MK46 5FP - **Opening hours:** Monday to Friday, 9am to 5.30pm - **Part of:** Crushed Ice Group (https://crushedicegroup.co.uk)
