Replace paperwork with digital warehouse management

In modern supply chains, speed, reliability and cost-efficiency are crucial. To achieve this, companies need material flow control systems that ensure smooth and transparent processes. A well-structured solution guarantees that raw materials, semi-finished products and finished goods arrive on time, in the right quantity and in perfect condition. While this may sound straightforward, in practice it is a complex challenge. Multiple warehouse locations, fluctuating demand and diverse transport routes make a digital, data-driven approach indispensable.

COSYS Ident GmbH provides powerful intralogistics software that maps the entire material flow from goods receipt and storage to order picking and shipping within one central system. This creates real-time visibility, allows companies to react quickly to changes and ensures maximum supply chain flexibility.

Replace paperwork and Excel with digital warehouse management

Many companies still record material movements on paper or with simple spreadsheets. These outdated methods are time-consuming, error-prone and prevent fast reactions. With digital warehouse management software from COSYS, such inefficiencies become a thing of the past.

All goods movements are captured directly and updated instantly. Inventory levels, storage locations and transport orders are accessible at any time. Employees can use mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets or handheld scanners to update transactions, check stock or request replenishment on the spot. This ensures real-time transparency, reduces delays and significantly increases productivity.

Mobile device Management for Secure Intralogistics Operations

For reliable digital material flow optimisation, mobile devices are essential. With COSYS Mobile Device Management (MDM), companies can centrally manage all handhelds, tablets and smartphones. Device updates, configuration and security policies are applied seamlessly. This ensures smooth data capture in warehouses and production environments while protecting sensitive corporate data.

Data-driven insights for better decisions

Successful intralogistics operations rely on accurate data. Key performance indicators such as throughput times, inventory levels, warehouse space utilization and delivery accuracy provide valuable insights into logistics performance.

With integrated analytics, COSYS software not only collects this data but also evaluates it intelligently. Companies can identify bottlenecks early, plan seasonal fluctuations and detect long-term trends in material management. This data-driven approach leads to better decisions, stable processes and lower costs.

Flexible integration with ERP and WMS

COSYS solutions integrate seamlessly with existing ERP systems or Warehouse Management Systems (WMS). This ensures companies retain their current infrastructure while benefitting from advanced intralogistics software.

For example, warehouse staff can instantly locate any item. When an order is placed, the system knows exactly where the goods are stored and the most efficient picking sequence. This reduces travel distances, eliminates search times and optimizes order fulfillment.

Transparency from goods receipt to shipping

From inbound to outbound logistics, COSYS software covers the entire intralogistics process. Goods are scanned at receipt and automatically recorded in the system. Storage locations are documented during putaway, ensuring full traceability of all items.

At outbound, the system updates orders in real time, generates packing lists automatically and prepares shipments on schedule. This guarantees on-time deliveries and higher customer satisfaction.

Sustainability and cost savings

Digital material flow control not only improves efficiency but also reduces environmental impact. Shorter transport routes lower energy consumption, while optimized stock planning prevents overstocking and unnecessary transfers.

COSYS software helps companies achieve these sustainability goals. Reduced search times, fewer stockouts and optimal material usage contribute to both cost savings and eco-friendly operations.

Material flow control as a strategic advantage

In today’s competitive environment, material flow control is more than just a technical tool. It is a strategic success factor that helps companies stay competitive, meet customer expectations and control operating costs.

By combining mobile data capture, centralized data management and advanced analytics, COSYS offers a complete solution for smart intralogistics. Flexible, scalable and future-proof, it enables businesses to build efficient, transparent and resilient supply chains.

Companies that invest in intelligent material flow control software today create the foundation for long-term success in intralogistics and logistics management.
