Abstract
Warehouse business processes are an important component of logistics systems. One of the key indicators that can be used to evaluate the efficiency of the warehouse is the duration of the technological cycle of order preparation. To reduce the length of this cycle, a variety of IT solutions are used. The article provides a brief overview of the WMS market and highlights the most popular systems. A number of shortcomings in the approaches used to automate warehouse tasks are noted. An alternative solution based on mobile technologies is proposed, an approach to its implementation and the functional features are described. The advantages, disadvantages, as well as opportunities and directions for further development of the proposed approach and its practical implementation are reflected.
