Due to the complexity of the internal operations system of reception, internal movements, and distribution of merchandise in a distribution center of a supermarket chain, it is necessary to have an integrated Warehouse Management System (WMS) that streamlines internal processes and guarantees their traceability. This study aims to evaluate the technical and economic feasibility of a WMS for the continuous flow of materials that pass through this distribution center from Mariano Roque Alonso, Paraguay, which currently operates with 36 stores and has a medium/long-term projection of expansion to 50 stores, with a great diversity of products and suppliers that must be trusted for delivery. The methodology included the identification of the products with the highest rotation, the schematization of the current operational flow of the DC, and the technical and economic analysis of the proposal. One of the main results is the improvement of operating times and a greater volume of units dispatched.
