Run a Faster, More Accurate Warehouse on One Cloud-Native WMS
Fulfillment gets harder as volumes, channels, and automation multiply. We help you implement and optimize Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management so you can receive, store, pick, pack, and ship from one cloud-native execution engine, with the accuracy and speed your customers expect.

Faster, more accurate order fulfillment
Real-time inventory accuracy across the warehouse
Automation and labor working from one execution engine
How Work Moves Through the Building
Every unit follows the same path through the four walls, and the system directs each step.
Receive
ASN matched at the door, product verified, license plates created before the dock clears.
Put Away
Directed putaway assigns a location by velocity, cube, and constraint, not by operator preference.
Replenish
Demand and min/max triggers move inventory from reserve into pick faces ahead of waves.
Pick
Waves release by carrier cutoff, and tasks interleave across zones, equipment, and travel paths.
Ship
Cartons manifest, labels print, loads build by stop sequence, and the trailer seals.
Why Warehouse Execution Breaks Down at Scale
Even with the right platform, warehouse execution slows down when the system and the floor drift apart:
Inventory records that fall out of sync with what is actually on the floor
Wave-based picking that stalls when order profiles shift
Automation and robotics managed outside the core WMS
Manual workarounds to handle exceptions, returns, and peak volume
The result is slower throughput, higher labor cost, and fulfillment promises you cannot consistently keep.
What a Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management engagement includes
We help you design, implement, and optimize Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management to align with your facilities, order profiles, and throughput goals.
WMS Design
We define how receiving, putaway, storage, picking, packing, and shipping should work across your facilities, based on your order profiles, inventory strategy, and throughput goals.
WMS Configuration
We configure the platform to your workflows, including order streaming and waveless picking, so work flows to the floor continuously instead of in rigid, pre-planned batches.
Integration (ERP, OMS, Automation)
We connect the WMS with your ERP, order management, and material handling and robotics systems so inventory, orders, and equipment stay coordinated in real time.
Data Migration
We migrate and structure item, inventory, and location data so the system reflects reality from day one and go-live is not slowed by bad data.
Extensions Development
We build extensions for the workflows and exceptions that standard configuration does not cover, keeping your core platform clean and upgrade-safe.
Testing and Validation
We validate flows, volumes, and integrations across realistic scenarios, including peak and returns, so the system holds up under real operating conditions.
Go-Live and Support
We plan and run cutover, stabilize operations after go-live, and provide ongoing support as your volumes and processes evolve.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is Manhattan's cloud-native warehouse management system for running receiving, putaway, inventory management, picking, packing, shipping, and returns from a single platform. Because it is versionless and cloud-native, it updates continuously without disruptive upgrades, and it can direct both your workforce and your automation from one place.
Instead of releasing work in fixed waves, the WMS streams orders to the floor continuously and decides what to pick next in real time. This reduces bottlenecks, keeps labor productive, and lets you respond to changing order profiles without re-planning waves. We configure these flows to match your volumes and facility layout.
It orchestrates material handling equipment, robotics, and manual work from one system rather than through separate, disconnected controls. We integrate your automation so the WMS directs both people and machines against the same priorities, and we test those flows thoroughly before go-live.
SCALE and WMOS are Manhattan's earlier warehouse platforms, while Manhattan Active® Warehouse Management is the cloud-native successor built on the Active Platform. We support all three, and we help customers plan and execute migrations from SCALE or WMOS to Active WM when the timing is right.
This page covers the WMS execution engine itself, which runs the physical work in the building. Labor Management measures and improves workforce productivity, and Slotting decides where inventory should be placed to make picking more efficient. They work alongside the WMS, and we implement each based on your priorities.
Yes. We integrate the WMS with your ERP, order management, and other enterprise systems so inventory, orders, and fulfillment status stay synchronized in real time. Clean integration is one of the biggest factors in a successful go-live, so we design and test it carefully.
We align processes, data, and integrations before configuration begins, validate flows under realistic and peak conditions, and plan cutover carefully so go-live does not disrupt operations. Our Phase Zero approach addresses the gaps that derail projects before they start, and we stay engaged with support after go-live.
Yes. We provide ongoing support and optimization, helping you tune workflows, absorb new volumes and channels, and take advantage of continuous platform updates as your operations evolve.
