Blue Yonder Warehouse Management Likes & Dislikes
3 main components of the system can serve warehouse operations well when properly implemented: 1. Directed Work - this can save a ton of time on operations like ours, where work is largely manually organized. This is like an intermediary step between legacy warehouse operations and contemporary automation approaches. This makes the sequence of work context aware of the necessary inventory movement and outstanding work to be completed. 2. RF and Web Interfaces - we are moving from a locally hosted system with a thick client on end user machines or needing a remote access server with clients running on handhelds. This is a very volatile implementation, and BY's web interface and android APK are MUCH more scalable. 3. Configurability - although this is one we're still learning more about every day, the configurability within the BY WMS product is incredibly flexible. We definitely can see several operations using this product even in spite of being entirely different lines of business
Easy to integrate with ordering systems and other downstream systems such as transportation and trade management or legacy systems. Runs on a monolithic architecture which makes it flexible
We have customized Blue Yonder a lot to meet our company's specific needs. It helps us make real-time decisions based on accurate data which has significantly improved our fulfillment rates. New users in the warehouse find it very user-friendly, which increases their productivity.
1. Support teams are often overwhelmed and do not have access to reference documentation filled out during implementation 2. The SaaS model has not matured enough to work well with client developed code. This isn't really something I dislike about the product but more their service, and Blue Yonder has worked with us to continuously develop their processes. These are both things that Blue Yonder have closely partnered with us to address and we're working closely to help mature this service together.
We do not have many options to customize the Pick, pack, and ship reporting option we have to customize it outside of the BY.
1. We might experience system slowness once in a blue moon 2. Sometimes we come across a scenario where we would like very detailed reporting but obviously Blue Yonder has its limitations. 3. System upgrades are needed from time to time which may fall under peak season but the Blue Yonder team has been able to manage/postpone it based on our requests.

Insights into BY's Warehouse Management System Implementation
Specifically in both of our warehouse launches, BY has shown great partnership throughout the hypercare period. They were on site alongside us, working through operational challenges, educating users, and being creative with workarounds to unforeseen issues. There are always challenges with any production launch, but several of the team were not at all hesitant to question decisions, reevaluate configurations, and jump in to help. - Solutions Systems Support Analyst50M-1B USDRetailReview Source
Transforming Operations with Blue Yonder: Our Experience
Implementing Blue Yonder has been a turning point for our operations. Before the switch, our processes were very manual and would cause a lot of delays in operations. Since adopting Blue Yonder, our operational accuracy has improved, and shipping has become faster. The system is easy to train and learn on, with excellent support from the Blue Yonder team. We have been able to achieve a goal both in operations and for the company as a whole. - VP, BUSINESS APPLICATIONS10B+ USDRetailReview Source
