Warehouse Management Systems Market Segmentation

Grand View Research has segmented the global warehouse management systems market based on component, deployment, function, application, and region:

Based on the Component Insights, the market is segmented into Software and Services.

  • The services segment held the highest revenue share in the WMS market, contributing to more than 81.52% revenue share in 2022. The services segment includes consulting, system integration, operation, and maintenance services. Warehouse management can be provided as a service by third-party vendors, which is outsourced by WMS providers. Vendors sell their products by either offering them as a service, which helps the clients to focus on their core business operations or by selling the software to the client without the service.
  • The software segment is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing segment, registering a CAGR of 21.0% from 2023 to 2030. The growth can be attributed majorly to the increasing adoption of WMS software by small and midsized enterprises (SMEs) worldwide. The software is hosted via a cloud-based computing system.

Based on the Deployment Insights, the market is segmented into On-premise and Cloud.

  • The cloud segment held the highest revenue share in 2022 and is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing segment, registering a CAGR of 19.7% from 2023 to 2030. Cloud-based technology has revolutionized the way businesses function. When deployed on the cloud, WMS offers a reduction in companies' upfront costs and drastically increases warehouses' efficiency.
  • On the other hand, the on-premise deployment has been prominent since the advent of WMS and is characterized by huge servers and high maintenance costs, ultimately increasing the company’s expenditures. These upfront costs and ownership of maintaining the on-premise server are incredibly high compared to the cloud-based technology. The significant difference between on-premise and cloud-based solutions is the longer time taken in the implementation process of on-premise WMS as compared to the latter.

Based on the Function Insights, the market is segmented into Labor Management System, Analytics & Optimization, Billing & Yard Management, Systems Integration & Maintenance, Consulting Services.

  • The analytics & optimization segment is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing segment, registering a CAGR of 21.4% from 2023 to 2030. On the other hand, the revenue contributed by the systems integration & maintenance segment is likely to be the highest throughout the same period. Functions such as inventory receiving and putting away, optimization of picking and shipping of orders, and guidance in inventory replenishment are being carried out by WMS.
  • Further, order allocation is another essential feature of any robust warehouse management system. As soon as a sales order is received, it is entered into the enterprise resource planning (ERP) system and gets immediately updated in the WMS software. Order management is expedited as there is no time lapse between the product being received in the warehouse and being available for order allocation.

Based on the Application Insights, the market is segmented into Transportation & Logistics, Retail, Healthcare, Manufacturing, Food & Beverage, Others.

  • The transportation & logistics segment is expected to emerge as the fastest-growing segment, registering a CAGR of 20.2% from 2023 to 2030. The growth can be attributed to the increased popularity of e-commerce portals, coupled with the growing disposable income levels of consumers, especially in emerging nations such as India and China.
  • The manufacturing segment held the highest revenue share in 2022. The manufacturing companies initially integrated their ERP and WMS solutions. They are integrating their logistics & transport management systems too in order to gain full control of the supply chain. In addition, the use of cloud-based technology is enhancing the efficiency and performance of supply chain management in the manufacturing sector.
  • The healthcare segment is anticipated to emerge as a prominent adopter of WMS, as providers are building facilities taking into consideration the pre-requisites of the healthcare sector. For instance, DHL’s Cherwell European healthcare center is the largest user-shared logistics center in the U.K. that offers a healthcare warehouse management system. The facility uses OBS Logistics system, and its services include inventory management for a wide range of temperature-controlled pharmaceutical products, diagnostic reagents, and medical devices.
