W2MO allows an easy and intuitive data import from all available data sources offering a wide range of interfaces, Excel-/CSV-Integration, RESTful APIs and a general database connector.
These flexible interfaces as well as a standardized data import from operative systems (e.g. SAP) provide a simple and holistic integration into the existing system landscape.
Based on our experience with more than 500 successful customer projects over many years, we can advise you, which data (sources) are actually required and support you in gathering the data as well as in the process of data evaluation and data import.
If required, we can also (in coordination with your IT) extract the necessary data from your systems.
The simple tool integration allows a quick realization of first optimization potentials and ensures a short-term pay-off for your investment.
Moreover, the integration of W2MO enables holistic logistics planning without tool breaks and also supports you in creating extrapolated data for future developments (e.g. increase of order volume, change in order structure, etc.).
