Think You’re Tracking the Right Warehouse KPIs?

The Metrics That Actually Drive Warehouse Performance Might Be Missing

In a world where dashboards are everywhere, most warehouse leaders are still making high-stakes decisions with incomplete visibility.

Why?
Because traditional WMS reports weren’t built to surface what’s really slowing you down.

That’s why we created this guide:
“The 6 KPIs Warehouse Leaders Are Missing, And What It’s Costing Them.”

Firefighting Operations. Missed SLAs. Burned Labor Hours.

If you’re still stitching together static reports to figure out what went wrong after the fact…
If your team is constantly reacting to delays instead of predicting them…
If you’re feeling the pressure to do more with less but don’t have the clarity to act…

You don’t have a data problem.
You have a visibility problem.

This guide breaks down the real-world cost of operational blind spots, and the key performance indicators that help you eliminate them before they turn into margin drain.

What You’ll Learn

This isn’t a list of generic metrics.

This guide reveals:

• The hidden operational gaps no one is talking about

• Where even the most advanced warehouse teams lose time and money

• Why data-rich visibility ≠ real-time, actionable clarity

• How to close the gap between WMS reporting and on-the-floor execution

These KPIs don’t live in your standard dashboards, and most WMS platforms can’t surface them without custom work.

But they matter. Because they directly affect:

• Throughput velocity

• Labor costs

• Forecast execution

• Workforce consistency

• Inventory movement

• Customer satisfaction

Why This Matters More Than Ever

Between trade volatility, rising labor costs, and shifting consumer expectations, 2025 is forcing distribution centers to rethink how they measure success.

Warehouses aren’t just fulfillment hubs anymore, they’re strategic assets.
And the companies that are winning have something in common:
They know exactly what to measure, and how to act on it in real time.
