Frequently asked questions

How WareBee decides where every SKU belongs and hands the moves to your WMS.

  • What is the difference between strategic and micro slotting?

    Strategic slotting handles the seasonal re-slot, while micro-slotting drives continuous weekly improvement. Both come from the same engine, so you plan for the season and refine for the week without switching tools.

  • What does slotting actually optimise for?

    It places every SKU to minimise travel and congestion. The engine is velocity and affinity aware, so fast movers go forward, co-picked SKUs sit together and congestion is spread out rather than concentrated.

  • Can I see the savings before I move anything?

    Yes. Every re-slot plan is simulated in the twin with predicted savings attached, so you approve only the moves that pay and leave the rest.

  • How do the moves get executed on the floor?

    Slotting produces executable output — move lists and location assignments in the format your WMS accepts — so the plan flows straight into the system your team already uses.

  • Does WareBee slotting replace my WMS?

    No. It sits alongside your WMS as an optimisation layer and returns slotting recommendations for the WMS and team to execute. There is no rip and replace.

  • How does the underlying optimisation engine decide the moves?

    The Dynamic Optimisation engine re-slots using strategic macro and tactical micro slotting, simulates each run in the digital twin, and presents it as a before-and-after comparison of travel and throughput.
