Structurion - CAPE's warehouse management system
Managing a warehouse is a huge operation for companies from the Transport & Logistics and Supply Chain industries. There is a continuous flow of goods, you always run out of space and goods are stored for too long, which means that they can no longer be sold because, for example, the best-before date has expired. That is why it is important to have an overview of what is happening in the warehouse.
