About this episode
The episode discusses the effective selection of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) and the critical factors that contribute to successful implementation.
Is your WMS selection process a value-add or just a long-winded exercise in false confidence? In this episode of The Playbook, we’re joined by Casey from Fullstride to discuss the "magic" of a successful software selection. Moving past the thousand-line spreadsheets, we dive into the "critical levers"—the core workflows and features that truly drive business value. Casey shares insights from 20 years in the WMS space, offering a realistic look at implementation ratios, vendor stability, and the essential "People, Process, and Data" framework required for readiness.
