Today, Softeon is announcing an integration with IBM Sterling Order Management System (OMS) in Softeon Warehouse Management System (WMS), with the aim of helping clients improve distribution center processes, automate key warehouse functions, optimize resources, and enhance overall throughput and efficiency.

In this way, Softeon —the only tier-1 WMS provider focused on optimizing warehouse and fulfillment performance to increase operational efficiency and throughput— is now collaborating with IBM to provide an integrated solution set consisting of their world-class OMS with our WMS. This cooperation gives us the ability to support our clients in managing the entire spectrum of activities in the supply chain execution layer.

"We are excited to collaborate with Softeon on WMS innovation by offering solutions incorporating key technologies from both companies. Together we can deliver an even more effective and robust solution to clients, helping them manage their end-to-end processes," says Kambiz Pakzad, Worldwide Leader for Supply Chain Sales, IBM.

The software integration was highlighted at the IBM OMS User Group hosted by Tractor Supply at their headquarters in May. Softeon spoke at IBM's Technology Partner Roundtable with other business partners, where IBM detailed how is investing in integrations and collaborations with partners to improve the end-to-end customer experience.

Softeon is excited to continue helping companies leverage the advantages of both IBM's world-class OMS solution and Softeon WMS.
