Easy WMS by Mecalux — real-time warehouse control for Canadian businesses.

Managing a warehouse manually means tolerating errors, delays, and inventory blind spots that compound over time. Platform 1 helps Canadian businesses connect racking design, automation, and Easy WMS by Mecalux into one coordinated solution — from the steel to the software.

The Software Gap Is Costing You

Spreadsheets, manual counts, and disconnected ERP inventory modules were never designed for a working warehouse. The gap shows up in missed picks, inaccurate stock, slow order cycles, and labour that can't be accounted for. Easy WMS by Mecalux closes it.

60%
Productivity improvement
Operations running Easy WMS report up to 60% improvement in warehouse throughput compared to manual or ERP-only environments.
99%
Error elimination
Pick and ship accuracy reaches near-perfect levels with task confirmation, barcode scanning, and system-directed workflows replacing manual processes.
40%
Storage capacity increase
Intelligent slotting and replenishment optimises location assignment across your warehouse, recovering space that manual systems waste.

What a Warehouse Management System Does

Easy WMS controls every process in your facility from a single platform. It replaces disconnected tools and manual workarounds with a system that knows where everything is, who is doing what, and what needs to happen next.

Real-Time Inventory Tracking

Complete visibility of every SKU — quantity, location, lot, batch, and expiry — updated in real time across your entire warehouse. No more stock discrepancies between your WMS and your ERP.

Order Picking and Fulfilment

System-directed picking routes minimise travel time and eliminate errors. Supports single-unit, case, batch, zone, wave, and cluster picking. Integrates with pick-to-light displays and voice-directed picking systems.

Receiving and Putaway Management

Automated task assignment from dock to location. Confirms goods receipt against purchase orders and directs operators to optimal putaway positions based on velocity and storage rules.

Shipping and Dispatch

Confirms shipments, generates carrier labels, integrates with TMS platforms, and updates your ERP automatically. Every outbound order tracked from pick confirmation to proof of delivery.

Labour Management

Monitors operator productivity against engineered standards. Tracks tasks, identifies efficiency gaps, and gives managers the data to optimise shift performance without guesswork.

Supply Chain Analytics and KPI Dashboards

Real-time reporting on throughput, order accuracy, cost-per-pick, dock utilisation, and cycle time. Easy AI adds generative AI — ask questions in plain language, get instant warehouse data.

Multi-Warehouse and 3PL Management

Manages inventory across multiple facilities with full location traceability. Supports multi-client (multi-owner) environments for third-party logistics providers with client-segregated reporting.

Automation Integration

Connects directly to AS/RS equipment, stacker cranes, pallet shuttle systems, AGVs, autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), and conveyor systems. The software layer that makes automated warehousing perform.

The Platform 1 Difference

A Single-Source Warehouse Partner, Powered by Mecalux

Most WMS vendors sell software and hand you off to an integrator. Most racking companies stop at the steel. Platform 1 coordinates every layer of a warehouse build — engineered storage systems, automation hardware, and Easy WMS by Mecalux — with one team and one point of accountability.

  • Racking and storage systems — selective, drive-in, push-back, cantilever, pallet flow, mezzanines, and high-density storage
  • Warehouse automation — AS/RS, AGVs, AMRs, pallet shuttles, and conveyor systems through our Gonvarri Constructor partnership
  • Easy WMS by Mecalux — cloud (SaaS) or on-premise WMS, with ERP and automation integration, coordinated and supported by Platform 1
  • Inspections and compliance — CSA A344:24 expert rack inspections, PSR coordination, and load capacity certification
  • Engineering and installation — PE-stamped drawings, Pre-Start Health & Safety Reviews, and professional installation across Ontario

Storage design, automation hardware, Easy WMS by Mecalux, and compliance sign-off. One coordination partner, one conversation.
