“These are interesting times for companies in the warehouse and logistics sectors because automation is becoming more accessible to SMEs and combined with the likely impact of events such as Brexit impacting resourcing costs, we are expecting a big demand for integrated warehouse management solutions across all industry sectors,” says Darren Baxter.

To address this, Indigo Software is actively looking to develop strategic partnerships with companies offering robotics and augmented reality solutions that can be integrated with Indigo WMS for managing warehouse operations.

This will continue as we look ahead and consider how to improve and grow our company, by taking full advantage of technological advances and new commercial opportunities,” adds Baxter.
