What it is

SSI SCHAEFER WAMAS is a paid, modular logistics software portfolio for managing, moving, monitoring, and optimizing warehouse operations. WAMAS WMS plans and executes intralogistics from goods-in through picking and goods-out, supporting manual, semi-automated, and fully automated warehouses, including multiple sites. WAMAS MFS connects equipment such as stacker cranes and conveyors, while WAMAS WCS controls automated flows and coordinates sorters, scanners, shuttle systems, automated guided vehicles, and warehouse employees. WCS functions include order management, real-time resource allocation, inventory and picking optimization, and intelligent routing. The Control Center presents order processing, material flows, KPIs, system status, and fault notifications through configurable dashboards. Robotics software supports case and piece picking; piece-picking can run inside WAMAS or connect to third-party ERP and material-flow systems. WAMAS connects with ERP, billing, transport-management, ecommerce, and carrier systems. Entry-Level Solutions target small and medium-sized businesses, receive updates twice yearly, and are designed to scale. Pricing is available on request; there is no free plan.
