…a WES shines at the orchestration role as it examines the order pool, looking at resource and inventory availability as it releases work and triggers needed inventory allocation. With the fewest number of SKUs and inventory replenishments, DCs can reach maximum throughput in a given amount of time, said Gilmore. WES capability also helps by dynamically changing work routing decisions.…
