An LMS typically interfaces with existing warehouse management systems (WMSs) but can be implemented in other ways as well. For example, if your organization is already using an enterprise resource planning (ERP) system with warehouse management functionality, then the addition of an LMS just might be the stepping stone you need toward better managing your labor force’s productivity. Just because you have a WMS doesn’t necessarily mean you have LMS functionality.
Here is a small (and certainly not an exhaustive) list of vendors that focus on LMS:
