PROJECT DESCRIPTION:

Wal-Mart has four code bases and seventeen different flavors of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) running in various

DCs of Wal-Mart across the globe. Supporting, maintaining and enhancing these many different systems are becoming

increasingly difficult and cost-prohibitive as Wal-Mart’s business continues to grow.

The purpose of the project is to develop a unified Warehouse management system (WMS) named as Global Logistics System

(GLS) which would serve all Wal-Mart DC’s. The scope of the GLS phase 2 was restricted to unify the main frame based

DCS2000, a WMS running in grocery DC’s in US and MGDS (Manual Global Distribution System), a WMS running in grocery

DC’s across the globe. Earlier in Phase 1, few core modules of WMS in DCS2000 were built as a part of new development in

VB and a unified data model accommodating all the applications was developed.

The scope of the project includes: Requirement gathering for Order Processing (OP) and Quality Assurance modules (QA) of

WMS based on the existing DCS2000 and MGDS applications and building it as a part of new development, Decoupling the

existing WMS components from the mainframe based DCS2000, migrating the existing core WMS from VB to .NET,

Integrating all these components with unified data model with residual DCS2000 and migrating the data from the existing VB

application to the newly integrated system.
