The Mind Behind the Machine

Software that doesn’t just execute. It adapts.

Your operation runs on people making thousands of decisions a day. Dematic Software gives them confidence to make the right choices. Built upon the experience of running over across 9,000 automated warehouses, Dematic Software manages your operation from inventory planning and labor coordination to real-time execution and equipment-level control. 

When your systems work, but don’t think together

Most warehouse, distribution, and production operations run on a disjointed stack of software solutions. A WMS plans inventory and labor. A WES sequences work. A WCS directs equipment. Dashboards report after the fact. Each does its job, but they don’t work together — they weren’t built to share intelligence. 

The problem is obvious in most operations. For example, an urgent order arrives, and the WMS flags it as priority, but that urgency doesn’t carry through to how equipment sequences the work. A shuttle slows and trays start recirculating, but the system releasing orders doesn’t know to reroute. Sorters get starved. Pickers go idle. But your dashboard still says you’re on track. 

The information to prevent all of this exists, but it’s trapped in the wrong layers. That’s not a technology problem — it’s a design problem.

Warehouse automation software built as one connected system

Dematic builds both the automation and the software that manages it. Every layer of decision-making is informed by us knowing how your operation actually works.

Dematic WMS coordinates inventory, labor, and workflows across your facility. It integrates with your automation (conveyors, AMRs, etc.) so when an urgent order comes in, that order carries as a priority throughout your facility all the way to machine operation.

Our WES uses resource optimization algorithms to balance flow across every area of your facility. Our optimization algorithms use operations research to prevent gridlock, releasing work based on priority, resource availability, and downstream capacity. 

Our WCS translates decisions into precise commands for subsystems (conveyors, shuttles, sorters, AS/RSs, etc.), optimized for their specific mechanical tolerances — not theoretical specifications. 

Our software tools connect patterns across systems, sites, and vendors to show why performance is shifting and what to do about it. 

Intelligence at every layer of your operation

We’ve automated some of the world’s most demanding warehouse, distribution and production facilities. That experience shapes how our software operates. 

Each capability builds on the others, creating understanding that deepens as your operation evolves.

Integrate

Connect everything. Unify equipment, systems, and data into a single operational view. Connect equipment (conveyors, shuttles, AutoStore™, AMRs, etc.) and enterprise systems into one coordinated ecosystem, regardless of vendor. 

Orchestrate

Direct the work. Coordinate people, automation, and processes in real time — from WMS-level workflow decisions to WES-level execution to WCS-level equipment commands. This is where operational experience becomes action — the right work reaching the right place at the right time, at every level of your operation.

Optimize

Understand why, not just what. Continuously improve throughput, labor productivity, and equipment utilization. Resource optimization maximizes the number of orders processed in each area while keeping downstream operations in balance. Lessons learned from thousands of implementations are applied to your operation. 

Visualize and Predict

Anticipate what’s next. Recognize patterns that indicate disruption before they become an issue. Turn historical data into forward-looking decisions through demand forecasting, predictive maintenance, and throughput optimization. 

Solutions built for every layer of your operation

Optimizes inventory, workflows, and labor across high-volume, high-complexity operations. Accounts for execution realities, from RF terminals to fully automated robotics. Recognized in the 2025 Gartner Magic Quadrant for WMS. 

Unites warehouse management and control functionality into a single execution platform to release work continuously. Resource optimization algorithms balance flow so no area gets starved or overwhelmed. 

Directly controls equipment such as conveyors, shuttles, sorters, and AS/RSs with optimized mechanical tolerances. An emulation-first design provides full facility testing (including exception handling) before any part of the operation goes live.

Unifies data across systems, sites, and vendors into a single operational view. Applies intelligence gathered from thousands of implementations to not just show shifts in performance but communicate why it is shifting and what to do about it. Turns scattered data into confident decisions.

Monitors equipment health and schedules maintenance to ensure potential problems do not become real issues. Tracks equipment condition, schedules maintenance with SOPs and compliance procedures, and finds degradation issues early. Ensures individual equipment and entire operation runs smoothly. 

Extends warehouse-grade intelligence to in-store fulfillment operations. Provides ship-from-store, BOPIS, and micro-fulfillment with the same precision you expect from a distribution center. 

Supports omnichannel fulfillment for curbside, locker, and in-store collection with the same quality of intelligence that runs warehouse operations.

Works with what you have. Evolves with what you need.

Dematic Software integrates with your existing enterprise systems without altering or replacing them. Our WES and WCS work alongside your current WMS, adding execution intelligence. When you’re ready to go further, Dematic WMS delivers planning depth built for automation-intensive environments. 

Dematic Software supports seamless integration that connects across vendors and systems:

WES/WCS Overlay

We add execution intelligence to your current WMS without forcing a full system replacement. 

Certified SAP Integrator

We provide deep, proven integration with the enterprise systems your operation depends on.

Hybrid-Ready

Dematic Software adapts to your manual, semi-automated, or fully automated environment.

A software partner for the long term

Introducing new software into a live supply chain operation is high risk. To minimize those risks, our team works in partnership with yours from the first consultation through go-live and beyond. 

Emulation-first design

Before any part of your operation goes live, we run full-facility emulation to test scenarios, exception handling, and edge cases. Our software consultants analyze your activity profiles and configure for your operation, not for a generic operation. 

After launch as your operational requirements evolve, our optimization assessment program compares your configuration with best practices to recommend improvements.

Four-stage implementation

Our team works closely with you by following a well-defined implementation plan: Design your requirements and specifications, develop software configured to your needs, test with emulation and validation, and deploy with support through signoff and beyond.

24/7 support

Our software support is always available and includes problem solving consulting, operational advice, parts and repair services, and on-site resources. 

Why choose Dematic as your automation partner
