by HK Systems :: Last updated on June 23, 2008

HKwms is specifically designed for manufacturers, distributors, and 3PL providers. HKwms has the unique capability to track and control the flow of raw materials and finished goods across both production and distribution environments. Using wireless, RFID, bar code, and other Auto ID technologies, HKwms prioritizes, directs, and confirms activities based on the real-time conditions and constraints of space, equipment, inventory, and personnel. This allows users to achieve optimal performance within their specific operations. The efficiency, quality, and accuracy of material flow functions are significantly improved -- from the receipt of raw materials to the shipment of finished goods.
