Honeywell has introduced its latest software technology designed to address demands of warehousing, order fulfillment, and distribution needs in Southeast Asia and other global markets. Particularly, the company introduced its MesonX Warehouse Management System (WMS).

WMS is a software solution designed to improve and streamline warehouse and distribution center (DC) operations. Moreover, the software provides businesses with the flexible end-to-end control necessary to simplify their operations and excel in this demanding marketplace.  From handling inbound receipts and put-away to managing replenishment, picking, order fulfillment, and shipping.

Addresses Productivity Challenges

Moreover, MesonX WMS provides easy-to-use tools and pre-configured functions for swift and cost-effective onboarding. For that reason, companies can expect up to 80% lower implementation costs with this software. This is because it can be operational in just two weeks with only 250 hours of onboarding services. Hence, a significant improvement compared to the usual 2,000-hour implementation time.

Jonathan Kwok, General Manager of Honeywell Logistics Solutions, said the rapid expansion of warehouses and the rising complexities of omnichannel fulfillment have brought about fresh challenges in managing inventory within DC operations. “These challenges can manifest as inventory inaccuracies, which, in turn, lead to workflow bottlenecks, disruptions in labor productivity, and diminished customer service quality. All of which can substantially reduce profit margins.”

Furthermore, Kwok said, “MesonX WMS goes beyond the basics of a typical WMS. It offers standard features like inbound/outbound processing, inventory, and resource management.” However, Kwok said what sets it apart is its ability to deliver strong performance including seamless integration, quick installation, and deep configurability for warehouse operations. In addition, it also features easy adaptability to future business changes.

Seamless Integration

Logistics companies often face high costs coupled with a long lead time in designing, developing, configuring, and testing a WMS for their operations. Hence, these can hamper companies with tight budgets and an even tighter project time frame. Some end up investing too much in systems that offer more features than they need. Meanwhile, others create their own ‘homegrown’ WMS, only to quickly outgrow it and drain internal resources.

Honeywell sees MesonX WMS solves these issues by tailoring itself precisely to specific workflows, eliminating the need for costly custom coding.

As businesses evolve, users can use the highly configurable characteristics to upscale MesonX WMS. Most importantly, the software solution seamlessly integrates with numerous devices, including mobile computers, voice automation technology, printers, barcode scanners, robotics, and more.
