Full traceability from order to delivery
Introduction
In today’s e-commerce environment, it’s no longer enough to simply deliver products. Customers expect transparency and quick updates: when is my order being packed, where is the delivery now, and when can I expect it to arrive? For companies that want to build trust, a modern Warehouse Management System (WMS) is essential. At GP Last, we use an advanced WMS to provide full traceability from order to delivery – for both our team and our customers.
What is a WMS – and why does it matter?
A WMS is a digital system that manages all warehouse processes: receiving, picking, packing, returns, and shipping. Where older systems only showed stock numbers, today’s WMS offers real-time data and total control.
Benefits for the customer:
- Full visibility into stock levels
- Faster order processing
- Fewer picking errors
- End-to-end traceability
How we use WMS in practice
- Inbound and registration
When goods arrive at our warehouse, they are immediately registered in the WMS. The system identifies the item, places it in the right location, and updates stock in real time. - Picking and Packing
When an order comes in, our staff receive digital pick lists via handheld devices. The WMS guides them to the correct location, minimizing mistakes. - Delivery and traceability
As soon as the package leaves the warehouse, the system updates its status. In many cases, customers can follow the journey – from warehouse to end customer. - Return management
If a product is returned, it’s registered instantly in the WMS. The item is checked, and stock levels are updated in real time.
Advantages for growing businesses
For small e-commerce companies, advanced systems may seem like a luxury. But in reality, a WMS becomes critical as sales grow. Without digital traceability, companies risk mistakes, delays, and unnecessary costs.
With GP Last’s system, our customers can grow without losing control.
Conclusion
A WMS isn’t just an internal tool – it’s a competitive advantage. With full traceability, fewer errors, and faster deliveries, companies can save money and improve customer satisfaction.
