Every second and every IT connection counts in the warehouse: The right network for your warehouse

When goods flows depend on speed, precision and real-time data, warehouse spaces and distribution centers become the center of attention. And with it, IT.

Everything must interlock: mobile devices, WLAN, connection to ERP or cloud systems.

Unlike traditional office or production environments, the warehouse places unique demands on IT infrastructure: little buffer for failures, high physical challenges, and plenty of movement at all levels.

CMS ensures that your warehouse IT keeps up - reliably, with high performance, and future-proof.

Challenges in Warehouse IT: Everything in Motion - Including IT Requirements

Warehouses are highly specialized working environments and often have to operate in confined spaces with constantly changing requirements. For everything to run smoothly, IT must play its part

IT Solutions for the Warehouse: When Everything is in Motion, Technology Must Keep Pace

Above all, IT in the warehouse must be one thing: robust. Dead spots, unstable connections, or performance issues don't just disrupt processes. They bring them to a standstill. With customized network solutions, CMS ensures that your warehouse technology runs reliably: from handheld scanners to the cloud.

Network and IT Management for Warehouse IT

Whether handheld scanners, tablets, or automated guided vehicles, everything in your warehouse must communicate reliably with each other. CMS plans and implements networks that are made for movement, range, and load. So that every access is accurate: from goods receipt to the cloud.

  • IT Network Solutions

    • Campus Networks: Efficient network topologies designed for high utilization and mobility in warehouses - with well-planned access point distribution, redundant connections, and optimized coverage.

    • Wireless & Mobile: WLAN solutions for demanding warehouse environments focusing on reliability, latency, and roaming quality - including mobile applications like pick-by-voice, automated guided vehicles (AGV), and other IoT components.

    • Data Center: Whether local or hybrid - CMS ensures high-performance, secure connections between warehouse IT and data center.

    • Network Monitoring: Early detection and resolution of bottlenecks, disruptions, or connection losses for smooth warehouse operations.

    • Fabric: A flexible network architecture that grows with your warehouse processes: scalable, resilient, and centrally manageable.

Cybersecurity for warehouse environments

In warehouse IT, security means not only protection against attacks, but also protection against downtime. Because failures, manipulation, or data loss directly affect ongoing processes. CMS ensures with tailored security solutions that your warehouse data and systems are protected and remain so.

  • Cybersecurity Solutions

    • Network Segmentation: Separation of sensitive areas, such as administrative IT, mobile devices, or scanners for maximum control and minimal attack surface.

    • Network Detection & Response: Early detection of suspicious activities and automated response mechanisms before disruptions occur.

    • Firewall: Robust protection mechanisms against unauthorized access to warehouse networks, systems, and interfaces.

    • Disaster Recovery: Protection against data loss through reliable backup strategies including rapid recovery in case of disruptions.

    • SD-WAN: Secure, cross-site connections between warehouse, headquarters, and other units - centrally controllable and scalable.

    • ZTNA (Zero Trust Network Access): Access control based on the need-to-know principle, ensuring only authorized persons or devices have access to critical warehouse areas.

XaaS & Managed Services for IT in the Warehouse

Especially in warehouse environments, it is crucial that IT processes run reliably but do not necessarily have to be operated internally. CMS offers you selected managed services that keep your warehouse IT stable, secure, and flexible.

  • XaaS & Managed Services

    • SD-WAN as a Service: Secure and scalable connections between warehouse locations that seamlessly integrate into your existing infrastructure.

    • XDR as a Service: Central monitoring, intelligent correlation of security-relevant events, and corresponding responses for comprehensive protection of your warehouse IT. Around the clock.

    • Network as a Service (NaaS): Complete provision and management of network infrastructure for flexible use, without requiring investments in own hardware.

Consulting and Integration, because warehouses must not stand still

New requirements, new technology, new locations. Warehousing is constantly changing. CMS ensures that your IT not only keeps pace but grows strategically with it.

  • Consulting

    • Network Design: Planning and implementation of customized network concepts aligned with your warehouse structure, equipment fleet, and logistical processes, including mobile systems such as pick-by-voice or automated guided vehicles (AGV).

    • Security Consulting: Development of individual security strategies for your warehouse IT, from risk assessment to implementation.

    • Analysis & Troubleshooting: Quick fault diagnosis and targeted resolution of technical issues in your IT systems, as well as connected systems like AGV or pick-by-voice, ensuring your warehouse stays operational.

    • NIS2 Compliance: Support in complying with current security guidelines.

Future-proof IT for high-performance warehouse processes

Nothing runs in the warehouse without IT, and much of it runs better with CMS. Together with you, we develop an infrastructure that fits your requirements, grows with your processes, and is ready for use at any time. This way, your warehouse becomes not only more digital but also safer, faster, and more efficient.
