»warehouse logistics« is more than just an information platform. The long-term study on warehouse management systems, which has been running since 2000, has since grown into an entire community comprising 85 participating logistics IT providers and the »warehouse logistics« team at Fraunhofer IML.
Since 2020, providers of other logistics IT systems – such as TMS, RPS and MES solutions – have also had the opportunity to list their systems on the platform and thus become part of the »warehouse logistics« community.
