Softeon and IBM Collaborate to Streamline Customers’ Warehouse Operations
By Raj Ponnuswamy, Chief Development Officer, Softeon.
Today, Softeon is announcing an integration with IBM Sterling Order Management System (OMS) in Softeon Warehouse Management System (WMS), with the aim of helping clients improve distribution center processes, automate key warehouse functions, optimize resources, and enhance overall throughput and efficiency.
In this way, Softeon —the only tier-1 WMS provider focused on optimizing warehouse and fulfillment performance to increase operational efficiency and throughput— is now collaborating with IBM to provide an integrated solution set consisting of their world-class OMS with our WMS. This cooperation gives us the ability to support our clients in managing the entire spectrum of activities in the supply chain execution layer.
"We are excited to collaborate with Softeon on WMS innovation by offering solutions incorporating key technologies from both companies. Together we can deliver an even more effective and robust solution to clients, helping them manage their end-to-end processes," says Kambiz Pakzad, Worldwide Leader for Supply Chain Sales, IBM.
The software integration was highlighted at the IBM OMS User Group hosted by Tractor Supply at their headquarters in May. Softeon spoke at IBM's Technology Partner Roundtable with other business partners, where IBM detailed how is investing in integrations and collaborations with partners to improve the end-to-end customer experience.
Softeon is excited to continue helping companies leverage the advantages of both IBM's world-class OMS solution and Softeon WMS.

T.J. Davies' Retention Knobs
Our retention knobs are manufactured above international standards or to machine builder specifications. Retention knobs are manufactured utilizing AMS-6274/AISI-8620 alloy steel drawn in the United States. Threads are single-pointed on our lathes while manufacturing all other retention knob features to ensure high concentricity. Our process ensures that our threads are balanced (lead in/lead out at 180 degrees.) Each retention knob is carburized (hardened) to 58-62HRC, and case depth is .020-.030. Core hardness 40HRC. Each retention knob is coated utilizing a hot black oxide coating to military specifications. Our retention knobs are 100% covered in black oxide to prevent rust. All retention knob surfaces (not just mating surfaces) have a precision finish of 32 RMA micro or better: ISO grade 6N. Each retention knob is magnetic particle tested and tested at 2.5 times the pulling force of the drawbar. Certifications are maintained for each step in the manufacturing process for traceability.
