The Cloud-Native WMS with GO-ONE® Engine

Designed for the requirements of modern intralogistics

plx.wmx® is a highly flexible WMS for managing and controlling all material and information flows in modern distribution centers. It covers the full range of logistics processes – from goods receipt and quality inspection to putaway, inventory management, picking, packing, shipping, and returns handling. Complex processes such as value-added services, multi-pick strategies, or customer-specific logistics concepts are supported with a high degree of flexibility.

A particular focus is placed on the demanding requirements of dynamic industries such as logistics service providers (3PL), e-commerce, and retail. These sectors operate with fluctuating volumes, diverse customer structures, and parallel tenants. plx.wmx® reliably maps such multi-user environments within a single instance, controls highly variable processes, and supports cross-site networks in which multiple logistics locations are intelligently connected.

Another core strength is fast and seamless integration into customers’ individual IT and system landscapes through an API-first approach. plx.wmx® communicates reliably with ERP systems, automation technology, transportation management systems, as well as customer and partner systems. This enables efficient real-time data exchange, creating transparency across the supply chain and supporting precise operational decision-making.

Modern software architecture as the basis for flexibility and scalability

plx.wmx® overcomes the limitations of traditional monolithic WMS solutions. At the heart of the innovation is the cloud-native GO-ONE® Engine. Unlike rigid, difficult-to-extend systems, plx.wmx® combines independent microservices, low-code modules, API-first design, webhooks, and an asynchronous message hub. Together, these components form a technologically outstanding overall architecture.

For customers, this means that new processes, locations, tenants, or integrations can be introduced, adapted, and dynamically scaled in a flexible, sustainable, and cost-efficient manner. The software architecture enables fast implementations and the secure operation of all systems, devices, and operating technologies.

The one-version strategy ensures future-proof use of the software: all customers operate their customized WMS on the same technological foundation. Enhancements are made available to everyone immediately through continuous updates. plx.wmx® remains permanently expandable and up to date.

In addition, plx.wmx® offers full freedom in operating models. It can be deployed on premises, as a native cloud solution, as SaaS, or in hybrid scenarios. This flexibility provides a future-proof platform for modern intralogistics.

Precisely applicable across dynamic industries

Today, logistics service providers, e-commerce, retail, as well as food and manufacturing logistics must operate faster and more precisely than ever before. Short response times, changing requirements, and increasing cost pressure are critical factors for competitiveness. Traditional WMS solutions reach their limits, as adaptations or scaling often require significant effort and long project timelines.

At the same time, pressure on the labor market is increasing. Skilled professionals in IT and logistics are scarce, and staff turnover is common. Teams need lean processes that function intuitively without complex interventions. As a result, demand is growing for systems that can respond flexibly, are easy to extend, and ensure high process stability.

plx.wmx® is designed to scale and supports a wide range of deployment scenarios – from single distribution centers to globally distributed multi-site environments. The solution is particularly relevant for 3PLs, e-commerce, retail, manufacturing, and the food industry, which must efficiently manage dynamic volumes, changing customers, increasing quality requirements, and parallel locations or tenants.

With its cloud-native architecture and flexibility across all operating models, plx.wmx® provides the capabilities modern logistics centers require: a sustainable platform that reduces complexity and strengthens organizations over the long term.

Key benefits for intralogistics plx.wmx®, the cloud-native WMS with GO-ONE® Engine, delivers three core benefits for dynamic intralogistics:

Speed

The GO-ONE® Engine with its microservices architecture enables rapid software deployment, simplifies adaptations, and supports easy scaling. New requirements can be implemented without interrupting ongoing operations. Technology boosters such as API-first design, webhooks, and the message hub enable highly efficient data exchange with other systems.

Flexibility

Individual processes as well as existing systems, technologies, and devices can be flexibly integrated. New locations, warehouse areas, and tenants can be set up independently by users. All operating models (on premises, cloud, hybrid) are supported and can be adapted without risk if strategies change. plx.wmx® can be precisely expanded through numerous modules and additional software for shipping, slot management, and billing.

Future-proofing

The one-version strategy with continuous updates ensures that customized customer solutions remain permanently up to date. New functions are continuously added, maintenance efforts are reduced, and investments are protected over the long term.

In the data-sensitive WMS environment, plx.wmx® enables the use of state-of-the-art, independent technologies, increases flexibility, and meets stringent requirements for data security, operational reliability, and planning security. Overall, this results in a sustainable reduction in operating costs for warehouse management software. plx.wmx® has been validated by Fraunhofer IML.
