Cognitive is coming. Plan now with SLMPre-Cog. Move when ready.
Cognitive is Blue Yonder WMS delivered as a cloud-based SaaS platform.
SLMCON brings deep expertise in the foundation of Blue Yonder WMS: the operational, functional, and technical realities customers depend on today.
What made on-premise WMS valuable is what makes the move complex.
01
Value built on-premise
Processes, workflows, integrations, and extensions are shaped around the operation.
02
Complexity keeps growing
Every release, workaround, interface, and business change adds another future decision.
03
The disposition question
Every customization must be kept, replaced, retired, or redesigned. Someone has to decide, with evidence.
04
The cost of deciding late
Decide now, with options and time. Or decide later, with fewer options and more pressure.
Ready to begin
If the decision to modernize is clear, Pre-Cog ensures the move is founded on technical and operational reality rather than assumptions. The assessment determines the first 100 days of implementation readiness.
MEET THE DECISION WHERE IT IS
You do not need to be committed to a transition to benefit from clarity.
Interested, but waiting
Clarity is needed before resources are committed. Pre-Cog establishes how much preparation is actually required, allowing for a structured burn-down of prerequisites before a full project begins.
Not making a shift       Â
If the path forward is to remain, Pre-Cog provides a baseline. Understanding the gaps between the current environment and the Cognitive future helps prioritize the work that will maximize the life of the current stack.
04
Scale and steward
Transfer knowledge, expand SLMCON’s delivery role across future sites, and support the platform after go‑live.
03
Blended Cognitive delivery
SLMCON’s WMS and implementation expertise combined with Blue Yonder’s Cognitive-specific product responsibilities.

02
Cognitive readiness assessment
Assess processes, customizations, integrations, data, dependencies, and migration risk before committing.
01
Current Blue Yonder WMS
Support, stabilize, optimize, upgrade, integrate, and manage releases across the environment you rely on today.
HOW WE DO IT · ONE PARTNER, BOTH HORIZONS
Support the WMS you run today. Prepare for what comes next.
Why SLMCON
Pre‑Cog turns transition complexity into a controlled plan.
​
For Cognitive programs, SLMCON works in coordination with Blue Yonder through a blended delivery approach that combines SLMCON’s WMS expertise with Blue Yonder’s product-specific capabilities. The assessment moves in a deliberate sequence — from understanding what’s actually running today, to deciding what’s worth keeping, to mapping how systems and teams depend on each other, to sequencing the move itself. Every step is scoped to surface risk early, preserve what already creates value, and direct spend to what actually needs to change.
