Technological Advancements in warehouse industry!

A warehouse is typically a storage facility that receives goods for the ultimate distribution to customers or other companies. The procedure of a warehouse industry includes coordinating the incoming goods, following storage and maintenance of the goods, and finally, the deployment of the goods to their appropriate destinations.

Though e-commerce has taken the world by storm and most of us depend on social media, mobile apps, and online shopping platforms on doing our purchases, the warehouse India industry has also significantly grown in past few decades due to these technological improvements.



Warehousing is an important part of the overall company supply chain in India and operated in a number of ways. The goods are obtained, prepared, and after that sent to the warehouse for storage. The storage of goods has been the main function for warehouses. Products are placed on pallets, which enable a more consistent stacking and moving inside the facility. One of the most crucial facets of warehouse industry is inventory control. Inventory control is the capability to locate and track given merchandise inside the warehouse to help fast choice and loading for order fulfillment. Order picking is the procedure for choosing products to satisfy an order.

The operations of the warehouse industry can get quite complex at times as they may have to reach multiple goals like meeting customer orders, a sales branch and client support location, a supply of materials for creation, a staging area for final packaging or finishing within a short duration of time. Various technological advancements in past two years have helped warehouse managers to carry out all these procedures with ease and in much less time than before, let’s have a quick glance at these latest technological advancements.   

Lean manufacturing

This technology typically helps in maintaining efficiency and quality. It also helps warehouse managers to easily get access to production numbers, schedules, and related results.

Tracking Software

Be it the stock data or distribution data, consignment tracking technology helps businesses to access greater volumes of information in a click of a button. Not only does it help businesses to keep track of their goods and merchandises but it also helps customers to keep track of the product that they wish to purchase.

The tracking system has helped all those involved in the communication channel to keep track of their goods. This revolutionary technology has helped both businesses and customers to save their time and get information about their product, well before it reaches us. 

Quality Control

Gone are the days when workers had to manually gauge the data, record in QC sheets and fill in the spreadsheets. The latest quality control technology simply scans the products, record their details digitally and install their information in a click of a button.  

RFID Tags

Before the introduction of RFID tags, monthly inventory counting used to be a cumbersome job as it involved monthly counting and manually entering the product’s total. With the introduction of monthly RFID tags, the manufacturers can easily complete the inventory counting task without wasting any time. It helps employees to easily process the products while obtaining real-time inventory and data reports. 

Supply Chain Information

Large companies heavily rely on supply chain management (SCM) software to keep record of their supply chain statistics and accounts. Nowadays, small businesses are also taking leverage of supply chain logistics tools to maintain supply management. This software allows businesses to log into their accounts and get a real-time view of the location and status of the container. 

Moveable equipment

Any kind of downtime for the warehouse can cost thousands of dollars to a company. An important equipment breaking or stop functioning can create havoc. It may take weeks to find its replacement and get it installed at the right time.

Moveable equipment is comparatively easier to maintain. They can be rented, easily used and fixed as compared to the fixed pieces.
