Warehouse Control System (WCS) Software

FORTE’s WCS software, Integration Director™, is the integral link among warehouse software (ERP or WMS), material handling systems and the many islands of automation within the distribution center.

A single, streamlined integration platform for all your systems

If you're frustrated with expensive upgrade paths for your warehouse management system (WMS), lack of communication between systems or an inability to generate real-time views of distribution center performance, Integration Director may be the answer. Integration Director is a real-time, multi-directional integration platform capable of connecting all your systems.

Integration Director operates as a ultra-thin, high-speed service bus, providing connection and information routing capabilities that link disparate software and automation systems so they perform as a single unit. Using easily configured adapters or agents, the software allows new islands of automation to be quickly and easily deployed when needed. Key features include:

• Message decomposition and translation
• Multi-directional communication and orchestration
• Agent-based communication adapters

By using Integration Director as the centralized service bus,  a single point of integration is enabled across all islands of automation. This eliminates the need to develop multiple complex integrations within the WMS as new islands of automation are introduced.

Combined with our supply chain consultants' industry-leading systems integration expertise, Integration Director delivers real economic and efficiency benefits, including:

• Reduction in WMS modifications and customization
• Viable upgrade paths for all your warehouse management systems
• Enhanced, real-time reporting and metrics capabilities
• Real-time communications between disparate systems
• Long-term scalability of operational systems
