Web-based system and business model
"Software as a Service"
The benefits of a web-based system are
several. If you have access to the Internet, you can access the system at any
time, from anywhere and from any computer or handset. Different users can
access just the information that is relevant to them, such as customers (goods
owners) to third-party logistics can see stock balance, statistics, track their
deliveries and more. Software as a Service (SaaS) implies that as a customer
you pay a monthly fee per user - no entry fees or complicated installations. The
model makes it favourable for small and big companies. Ongoing Warehouse manages
operation (hosting) and updates.
Competent
standard system with good features
For several years, the service has been
developed in close collaboration with 3PL and warehouse management companies.
This means that Ongoing Warehouse today is a highly competent and flexible WMS.
The system is standardized which means that customers share development costs
in an industry of complex requirements. The WMS is highly configurable to
handle different logistics requirements. One point of variation is the
extensive system for reserving goods, including reallocations between picking
and buffer locations. Of course, FIFO, FEFO and LIFO and other common examples
are also handled. There is strong financial functionality for 3PL that solves
all ways to charge and invoice your customers for the work you do. Very good
scanning capabilities are available as well as great flexibility in using the
system with different types of mobile devices.
Integrations
and EDI
Ongoing
Warehouse has created integrations to common software services such as
E-commerce systems (webshops), Business Systems, Transport Management Systems
(TMS) and Transport Administration (TA) Systems. The system also has a modern
API / Interface which enables other parties to easily integrate and build on Ongoing
Warehouse WMS as a platform. A large community exists around the system and we
will, by the use of external parties, be able to integrate to several systems. With
these options, logistics providers can bring even more value to their customers
via a transparent and efficient flow of information.
Quick to
get started - easy to use
It is quick to get started with the
system. Our customers - and their customers and partners - think it's an
easy-to-use system that is intuitive and easy to learn.
