Live faster on best practice. Configure for everything after.

Every site starts from proven warehouse templates and goes live in months. Then the same platform configures around you: per-client rules, white-box automation, 3PL billing and carriers across ANZ, the UK, Europe and North America.

Enterprise suites measure rollouts in years. Most Thomax sites are live in months.

When another provider's rollout stalls, we take sites live in weeks, not months.

Proven templates, configuration instead of code and an integration hub we run ourselves are why it is fast.

The platform behind 5 billion units a year.

Warehouse management, warehouse control, transport and integration, run for operators in 30 countries from hosting in six.

.wms Warehouse management

Receiving to despatch on best-practice templates, then configured for every client, channel and site. Native apps on the scanners you own and live wallboards on every floor.

Warehouse control and automation

We design, build and support the warehouse control system alongside the WMS: pallet shuttles, lifts and conveyors, right-size packaging, sorters, pick-to-light and robotics from the world's leading equipment makers.

Start on best practice. Grow on the same platform.

No re-platforming at the point of growth. Every client, site and country runs on its own rules, on the same platform.

  1. One site on templates

    Standard receiving, putaway, wave, pick, pack and carrier configurations for your operating model.

  2. Many clients, their own rules

    Client A picks FEFO with photos; client B picks FIFO with a single scan. Same floor, same wave.

  3. Automated and national

    From one site to a national network on the same instance: stock, orders, rules and reports across every site.

Client wallboard: each client sees its own operation, under its own brand and the 3PL's.

We build the control system too.

One platform from order to conveyor. Every task, message and rule the control system runs is open to your engineers.

Explore automation and WCS

See the store as the control system sees it.

Every position, lift and shuttle, drawn from live WCS data: occupied, blocked for pick or putaway, and each shuttle's mode. The same view runs on a wallboard beside the pick ports.

  • Lane choice and putaway acceptance change in configuration, not code.
  • Integrated with Dematic, SSI Schaefer, Stow, Geek+, Locus Robotics and Modula.
  • Redundancy modes and retries built in; simulate before go-live.

Decisions you can read.

Every automated decision in .wms is a rule you can inspect, a setting you can change and a log you can audit.

Rotation

FEFO, FIFO and date rules chained as tie-breakers and set per warehouse, client or pick path.

Cartons and carriers

A volumetric box packer chooses cartons; live estimates choose the cheapest eligible carrier service.

Audit

Every stock transaction logs before and after trackers, quantity and reviewer; item changes log user and source.
