Available from FastPic Systems, FastPic4 inventory management software is designed to improve the overall efficiency of metalworking storage and retrieval operations. The software allows users to import from host WMS or ERP system parts lists for initial storage and system loading. Lists can be updated from the host system as part numbers change and parts become obsolete.

The software can import order data from host computer systems, including new orders and order deletions. Order data can be structured as simple pick lists, kits, a bill of materials or as a wave of orders across an entire warehouse. In addition, the software facilitates host-directed cycle counting and batch-picking operations. It allows the host system to pass down reports describing inventory received as well as part lists that require validation through cycle counting.
