Warehouse Management Systems That Improve Supply Chain Performance
A warehouse management system gives businesses a clearer picture of what inventory they have, where it’s stored, and what needs to happen before an order leaves the facility. At Wills Transfer, the Excalibur WMS supports inventory, order and shipment visibility across our warehousing services. Clients can access critical information online instead of relying on disconnected spreadsheets or waiting for manual updates.
This warehouse management system also connects physical warehouse activities with fulfillment and distribution. Inventory entering one of our facilities can be received into the system, tracked during storage, picked for an order, and followed through shipping. For businesses combining warehouse storage with storage and shipping services, that continuity makes it easier to manage inventory without operating their own facility.
Real-Time Inventory Visibility
Wills Transfer provides clients with online access to current inventory information through its warehouse management system, making it easier to monitor stock quantities and inventory movement. This real-time visibility can support purchasing decisions, production planning and customer order management while helping identify discrepancies sooner. Our warehouse management software gives clients online access to current inventory information, helping them monitor quantities and understand what is moving through the warehouse.
That visibility becomes particularly useful when inventory is spread across changing storage requirements or several locations. A business using our warehousing and storage capacity can review stock information while Wills Transfer manages the physical inventory. Vendor Managed Inventory programs can also maintain agreed minimum and maximum quantities when that approach suits the client’s supply chain.
Faster Order Fulfillment and Distribution
Warehouse management is directly tied to the work required to move an order. Wills Transfer can receive inventory, store it, pick individual SKUs, pack orders and coordinate shipping through the same broader 3PL warehouse relationship. Cross-docking is available when products can move from inbound transportation to outbound shipments without spending unnecessary time in storage.
Our warehousing and distribution capabilities can also incorporate container de-stuffing, kitting, labelling, and other value-added work. Keeping these activities connected reduces the number of separate providers a client has to coordinate and gives fulfillment teams access to the inventory information needed to prepare orders accurately.
Scalable Solutions for Growing Businesses
Inventory requirements rarely remain fixed. Seasonal peaks, new products or expansion into Canada can increase storage needs, while slower periods can reduce them. Wills Transfer operates seven facilities with more than one million square feet of warehouse capacity, allowing qualifying clients to adjust their space rather than committing to an equivalent company-owned footprint.
The same model can support dry goods, racked inventory, and temperature-sensitive products. Businesses that require a cold storage warehouse can access refrigerated, cooler, or frozen capacity, while other products may be suited to ambient or air-conditioned space. Our warehouse management systems support visibility as these requirements change.
Warehousing & 3PL Services Across Canada
We have seven state-of-the-art warehouse facilities totalling over 1,000,000 square feet of temperature-controlled buildings, and a global distribution network. We offer the full spectrum of service solutions to help our clients maximize their profits. From raw materials to finished goods, sub-assembly and everything in between, Wills Transfer can help you improve cash flow and improve your customers’ satisfaction.
We are Controlled Goods Certified, we offer Approved Security Level B Storage Facilities, and support Security Cleared Personnel (Level 1 & 2).
What Should Businesses Look for in a 3PL Warehouse Partner?
Businesses should look for a 3PL warehouse partner that offers more than storage space, including the right mix of infrastructure, technology, and operational flexibility to support their full supply chain. A strong provider should be able to handle different inventory types, scale capacity as demand changes, and integrate warehousing with distribution, fulfillment, and transportation without requiring constant system overhauls. This ensures long-term efficiency and continuity as business needs evolve.
Things to keep in mind when evaluating a partner include storage flexibility, value-added services, real-time inventory visibility, and the ability to support industry-specific requirements such as food-grade handling, temperature control, or secure storage. Providers that combine these capabilities with integrated logistics planning and modern warehouse management systems can help reduce operational complexity and improve overall supply chain performance.
The sections below outline the core capabilities businesses should expect from a full-service 3PL warehouse partner, including flexible warehousing and storage services, integrated logistics and transportation support, and technology-driven operational management.
Flexible Warehousing and Storage Services
A useful warehousing service should match the product and the amount of space required. Wills Transfer offers dry and ambient storage alongside air-conditioned, refrigerated, cooler and frozen options. Food-grade warehousing and security-sensitive storage are also available for qualifying requirements.
Scalable capacity is especially relevant for businesses dealing with seasonal demand or expansion. Instead of taking on a fixed warehouse footprint, clients can use third-party warehousing companies to add capacity as inventory grows and reduce it when requirements change. Racking, commercial storage, and managed labour can be incorporated where the operation calls for them.
Integrated Logistics Planning and Transportation
Storage is only one part of warehouse management. Inventory eventually needs to be received, moved, fulfilled, and delivered. Combining logistics planning services with transportation coordination can reduce the handoffs involved in getting products through the supply chain.
Wills Transfer can connect warehouse services with cross-docking, retail distribution, dedicated transportation, shuttle services, and shunting. For clients that need broader warehousing and distribution support, fulfillment and inventory management can remain within the same operating relationship instead of being managed through several unrelated providers.
Technology, Compliance, and Operational Expertise
Technology should give clients usable information about their inventory rather than simply recording warehouse activity internally. A warehouse management system with online reporting can show inventory, orders, and shipments while supporting data flow between logistics operations and client systems.
Industry requirements matter as well. Wills Transfer provides capabilities for food, pharmaceutical, and security-sensitive inventory, including SQF-certified capacity, Controlled Goods certification, and Approved Security Level B storage facilities. These capabilities give businesses a practical basis for comparing warehouse companies when product handling, security, or temperature controls are part of the decision.
