Tesco Direct WMS Implementation: Manhattan Associates Case Study
Case study of Tesco Direct's Warehouse Management implementation for non-food e-commerce fulfilment at its 202,000 sq ft Daventry facility.
Tesco Direct deployed Manhattan Associates Warehouse Management for Open Systems and Supply Chain Intelligence to gain end-to-end visibility from order placement through multiple delivery channels. The 3-month implementation integrated with existing Tesco.com Microsoft systems and enabled real-time stock availability checks, order optimisation, and scaling to 24/7 multi-shift operations. The system supports home delivery, courier, and store collection options while handling growth from 8,000 to 11,000 SKUs.
WMS selected for integration with existing Microsoft/Tesco.com infrastructure and multi-channel fulfilment flexibility
Three-month implementation included training documentation and SOP development under tight timelines
Real-time stock visibility prevents acceptance of unfulfillable orders across web, phone, and in-store channels
Daventry facility scaled to 24-hour operations to match demand growth for 11,000 non-food SKUs
Supply Chain Intelligence provides performance measurement and event monitoring across the fulfilment network
