Your warehouse runs at temperatures that freeze standard scanner batteries, fog touchscreens, and demand compliance workflows no SaaS platform handles natively. You need software built for cold chain — not adapted from ambient warehousing.
One FDA audit finding can cost $50,000+ in penalties, product recalls, and lost contracts. Generic WMS platforms don't enforce temperature logging, lot tracking, or FIFO/FEFO rotation natively.
Standard warehouse scanners and tablets fail 30% more often in cold and frozen environments. Battery life drops by half. Screens become unresponsive. Workers remove gloves to use touchscreens.
Every extra minute a freezer door stays open costs 3x more than in ambient storage. Inefficient pick paths and putaway sequences directly impact your energy bill — your second-largest cost.
Custom warehouse management software designed for cold storage, frozen, and controlled-temperature environments. Temperature monitoring integration, FIFO/FEFO enforcement, FDA compliance workflows, and interfaces built for gloves and cold.
Direct integration with temperature sensors and monitoring systems. Automatic alerts when zones exceed thresholds. Full audit trail for compliance.
System-enforced First-In-First-Out or First-Expired-First-Out picking. Workers can't pick newer stock before older stock without override authorization.
Full lot-level traceability from receiving to shipment. One-click recall capability — identify every affected shipment in seconds, not hours.
Large touch targets (64px+), glove-compatible inputs, high-contrast cold-fog-resistant display mode, and physical button support for primary actions.
AI pick paths that minimize door openings and zone transitions. Batch picks by temperature zone to reduce cross-zone travel.
Built-in compliance workflows for FDA (US) and CFIA (Canada). 21 CFR Part 11 electronic records. Bilingual labeling for Canadian operations.
A cold storage 3PL in Ontario handling pharmaceutical and food products switched from a generic SaaS WMS to a custom cold chain platform. FDA audit findings dropped to zero. Temperature excursion response time went from 45 minutes to instant automated alerts.
Yes. We build direct integrations with Sensitech, Emerson, Dickson, and other temperature monitoring platforms. Alerts, logging, and audit trails are built into the WMS workflow.
The WMS includes electronic signatures, audit trails, access controls, and tamper-evident records — all required under 21 CFR Part 11. Every action is logged with user ID, timestamp, and before/after data.
Bilingual labeling (English/French), CFIA traceability requirements, and Canadian food safety compliance workflows are built in. We've built for operations serving both US and Canadian markets.
$35,000–$60,000 for a custom cold chain WMS with temperature integration, lot tracking, FIFO/FEFO enforcement, and compliance workflows. Monthly hosting: $300–$500.
