Warehouse Software
KPI’s Warehouse Control/Execution System (WCS/WES)—Kommand Performance Intelligent Software (KPI-S)—is a customizable suite of cost-effective software tools with high-level functionality for your warehouse operations
Warehouse Control
System (WCS)
The WCS acts like the conductor in an orchestra, ensuring that individual pieces of material-handling technology perform with harmony, precision, and efficiency. This is the real-time layer that controls conveyors, automated storage and
retrieval systems (AS/RS), mobile transportation (AMRs/AGVS), and other parts of the material-handling system.
Warehouse Execution
System (WES)
The WES is the middleware between an Enterprise Resource Planning system (ERP)/Warehouse Management System (WMS) and the resources necessary to perform various tasks. These resources include labor, as well as the Warehouse Control System (WCS), which controls the material-handling technologies.
The WES communicates with the various resources to manage discrete inventory, collect information, and direct work efforts such as order fulfillment, replenishment, and shipping.
Fine-tuning your warehouse
Our Warehouse Control/Execution System (WCS/WES), KPI-S, is an integration tool that provides operational insight and performance optimization throughout the supply chain. It is a flexible, tightly integrated system that has advanced management capabilities for inventory control, resource scheduling, and order management. It is modular in nature, easily configurable, and scalable to easily adapt to the customer’s current and future needs.
Our business is warehouse solutions
Over the years we have earned a reputation for innovation, reliability, and solid methodology. We collaborate with the best minds in the industry to ensure that our robust solutions optimize your operation and dynamic business environment. We have a track record of success in managing both simple and large, complex systems.
What makes KPI-S unique:

- Manages work in process (WIP) inventory
- Manages raw material (RM) and finished goods (FG) inventory
- Directs multiple fleet managers (mixed fleet)
- Expandable for B2B eCommerce (less than truckload [LTL] & mixed pallets)
- Expandable for B2C eCommerce (each picking)
Bottom-Line Results
Modular Flexibility
KPI-S is a modular suite of software products that encompasses all the tools necessary to efficiently and economically operate a warehouse or distribution center.
The software consists of technology modules for the various robotic technologies we support. (AutoStore, Geek+, OTTO, t-Sort) as well as traditional material handling systems (AS/RS, Conveyor, Sortation, Pick-To-Light, Voice, and RF Picking). Customers can select only the modules needed and have the flexibility to add modules as their business grows:
Inventory Management System (IMS)™
A state-of-the-art technology to enhance the accuracy and efficiency of warehouse operations and data integrity. IMS™ maintains optimum inventory levels and accurately tracks inventory throughout multiple warehouses.
Order Management System (OMS)™
OMS™ provides the functionality necessary to properly and efficiently execute the order fulfillment process. This module facilitates the planning, processing, verifying, and shipping of orders within the warehouse or distribution center.
Shipment Management System (SMS)™
A software tool that provides reliable parcel and LTL shipment manifesting. Powered by ConnectShip™, SMS™ offers customized shipping solutions to streamline shipping and order fulfillment processes based on the customer’s best practices.
NAVIGATOR™
The Navigator™ module is the focal point for managing the operational aspects of the material handling system. It optimizes the routing of orders on the conveyor system and coordinates real-time control devices to efficiently manage the workload.
Toolkit™
A multi-purpose module, Toolkit™ helps operators and managers work in a proactive environment, ensuring on-time delivery and quality throughput. It also provides diagnostic and reporting tools to monitor system and operational performance.
