Case Study: Sky Organization Sky Company is one of the popular warehouse service providers in the UAE. It uses many information systems to manage its activities and control financial issues. These softwares are designed to assist warehouse managers in managing warehouse operations. But the systems rely on 100% manual data input and processing and a paper-based picking operation.

In the absence of any central stock information, the company employed multiple inventory controllers at each site to try to mitigate these difficulties and to investigate and rectify issues as they arose. The sky warehouse manager says, "we are manually emulating everything a WMS does-we are the WMS." As well as being hugely time-consuming and labor-intensive, we are at the mercy of human error. and, as the business has grown, so has the margin for error.
