One operating model across every site, live in weeks.

Distribution centers, regional sites, depots and partner warehouses on one WMS, with the same rules, reports and service in every country. Each new site starts on your template and is live in weeks.

Best practice live in weeks. Legacy systems take years.

One .wms system runs every site: distribution centers, regional sites and partner warehouses. Order systems send work in, carriers and .tms deliver it, and reports span the whole network.Distribution centerRegional sitesStores and depotsPartner warehouse.wmsone systemOrder systemsCarriers.tms own fleetNetwork reporting

What a network runs on .wms.

  1. One template for every site, with local differences by configuration rather than a local system.
  2. Each person signs in once and sees every site they run; reports and Power BI span the network.
  3. An order for three sites becomes three pieces of work the moment it lands; transfers arrive at the next site as receipts.
  4. Partner warehouses and their automation report what they shipped and received onto your orders.
  5. Regional hosting, currency, carriers and customs paperwork per country, with 24/7 support in every time zone.

The same operation in every building.

Receiving, putaway, picking, packing, labels and reports work the same way in every site, so a supervisor moved from one building to another is productive on day one and your KPIs mean the same thing everywhere. Where a site must differ, for a local carrier, a customs form, a chiller or an automated store, the difference is configured on that site and nowhere else. Stock, orders and performance are reported across the network from one place. A sports retailer runs stores and online across Australia and New Zealand on one .wms, a state government department runs depots and loan stores across dozens of sites, and transport groups run contract warehousing across five Canadian provinces and five Australian states.

Site after site, in weeks.

The first site is built on best-practice templates and goes live in weeks. Every site after it starts from that site’s configuration, on the scanners your teams already carry, so a rollout is a cadence rather than a program. Your ERP or order system is connected once through the Thomax integration hub and every site uses the connection. Acquired sites and warehouses taken over from a client come across the same way, and when another provider’s rollout stalls, Thomax takes the site live in weeks. Many Thomax projects pay back in under 12 months, and pricing scales with the sites you add and the seasons you trade through. Miniclipper Logistics is taking its UK sites live on .wms one by one.

Orders, stock and partners on one set of records.

Your order system or ERP decides which site ships each line; your sourcing rules stay where they are. .wms takes the order, splits it into one piece of work per site and closes each one back to the same order. A transfer dispatched from one warehouse arrives at the destination as an inbound receipt, whether that warehouse is yours or a partner’s. Partner warehouses and their automation report what they shipped and received straight onto your orders, so your stock and service figures include the work you do not do yourself. For 4PLs, carrier and partner costs are recorded against what you charge each client, so the margin on subcontracted work is visible per charge, and every client’s system connects once through the integration hub.

Every country on the same platform, hosted in its region.

Thomax-powered operations run in 30 countries on hosting in Australia, New Zealand, the UK, Europe and North America, with 99.99% uptime over the last 12 months and support teams in each region. Currency, carriers, labels and customs paperwork are set per country, and each person signs in once and lands on the sites they run. Bestseller runs three countries on the same platform; distributors run Australia and New Zealand from one ERP connection. Deliveries on your own fleet are booked from .wms into .tms and close on the warehouse order, with every scan and exception written back.

Automate site by site. Keep one system.

A pallet-shuttle store in one warehouse, AutoStore in another and a manual floor in a third run on one .wms with the same rules, reports and billing. Thomax builds white-box control for shuttle stores, sorters and packing lines and integrates vendor robotics, so each site automates on its own timetable and the network never gains a second system. Partner warehouses and their automation report their share of the work back onto the same orders.

Networks on .wms.

Contract logistics groups across five Canadian provinces, consumer-products 3PLs across Canada, the USA and China, and Bestseller across three countries run their networks on one .wms. Legacy systems roll a network out in years. Thomax sites go live in weeks.
