What CTS DoWhat CTS DoWhat CTS DoWhat CTS Do
CTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS Requirements•Control of Finished Goods at a Patient Pack (Serial Number) level
•Identification of the storage location within the warehouse
•Status Control at a Lot and Patient Pack Level
•Implementation of distribution control workflow processes
•Identification of the Container number (LPN) within the location
•Production of Pick Lists listing products, Lots, Container, and Patient Pack numbers (Rules Based).
•Finished product update/down date at point of dispatch
CTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS RequirementsCTS WMS Requirements
•The allocation of stock to Pick Lists
•The automatic updating of Inventory quantities using file transfer, barcoding or other suitable means.
•Full traceability of all transactions
•Interface with existing and future systems (e.g. IVRS)
•The system to be validated to FDA standards
WMS - WMS - An Implementation Nightmare?An Implementation Nightmare?
•Warehouses and Distribution centres are the pivotal points in the Supply Chain that facilitate the balance between supply and demand
•Business Continuity in warehouses is vital and any interruption will cause a ripple effect across the Supply Chain
•The WMS is a key enabler of Supply Chain Execution activity
•WMSs have traditionally proven to be an implementation nightmare
•40% of WMS implementations fail
•The success of Oracle WMS is dependent on the success of its implementation and customer satisfaction
