Robotics in the Warehouse

Strategic Importance of Warehouse Management Systems for Holistic Automation

Software
Descartes Systems Group, a global leader in connecting logistically complex retail companies, demonstrated at the K5 Future Retail Conference – held on June 23 and 24, 2026, at ESTREL Berlin – how open and robotics-enabled warehouse management systems (WMS) are becoming a strategic success factor in modern e-commerce fulfillment.
The Descartes pixi WMS was specifically designed to make e-commerce shipping processes simpler and more efficient. The automated workflows it enables eliminate warehouse chaos and increase speed and efficiency in all areas of order fulfillment – from receiving, warehousing pick-pack-ship, inventory, and returns all the way through payment processing and procurement support.
They also give warehouse managers the necessary control over order fulfillment, reduce errors, and enable sustainable growth.

Visitors to Descartes Booth 73 in Hall 2 gained insights into how the solution Descartes pixi™ WMS interacts with assistance systems such as Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and Pick-by-Light technologies. Flexible WMS architectures enable retailers and fulfillment service providers to continuously refine existing processes without having to rebuild entire warehouse structures from scratch, which better positions companies for future growth.
