START WHERE THE NEED IS
Five ways to engage. One path forward.
The services are distinct because the problems are distinct. Start with the situation closest to yours. If the need crosses more than one service, SLMCON will define the right starting point and keep ownership clear across the work.
Across every service, senior practitioners stay close to the work and keep risks, decisions, responsibilities, scope, and expected spend visible before they become surprises.

ASSESSMENTS & ROADMAPS
Turn an uncertain WMS decision into a prioritized, practical path forward with SLMNavigate
Turn an uncertain WMS decision into a prioritized, practical path forward. SLM Navigate defines technical and functional feasibility, operational cost, and resource readiness before the first line of configuration is written.
OUTCOMES
WHAT SLMCON OWNS
WHEN THIS FITS
- Validated WMS capability match
- Defined RICEFW and technical landscape
- Multi-site rollout strategy and ROI
- Risk mitigation plan for complex integrations
- Current state operational assessment
- Functional gap analysis
- Hardware and automation compatibility audits
- TCO and roadmap definition
- Weighing a new implementation vs. upgrade
- Budgeting for a Blue Yonder cloud migrationÂ
- Navigating a transition to Blue Yonder Cognitive
- Considering WMS-adjacent automation (AMRs, etc.)
- Preparing a business case for executive stakeholders
IMPLEMENTATIONS, UPGRADES & ROLLOUTS · SLM LAUNCH
Implement and modernize with control with SLMLaunch
SLM Launch brings disciplined ownership to Blue Yonder implementation, modernization, and expansion, connecting program decisions to what the operation and frontline teams need to succeed.
OUTCOMES
- A controlled deployment with clear decisions, workstream ownership, and visibility into scope and spend
- Operational and frontline readiness built into the program
- A stronger path to stable operations through go-live, hypercare, and knowledge transfer
WHAT SLMCON OWNS
- Program governance, design authority, decision tracking, and delivery leadership
- Coordination across configuration, integrations, data, testing, training, internal teams, and partners
- Cutover planning, go-live, hypercare, and transition to steady-state ownership
- A new Blue Yonder implementation needs experienced functional, technical, or delivery leadership
- An upgrade or cloud migration creates risk across customizations, integrations, testing, or cutover
- A site rollout or high-risk go-live requires disciplined coordination across teams and partners
WHEN THIS FITS
INTEGRATION, AUTOMATION & DATA · SLM CONNECT
Make the operating environment work as one with SLMConnect
SLM Connect closes the gaps between warehouse execution and the systems, automation, applications, and data around it so information and operational workflows move reliably.
OUTCOMES
WHAT SLMCON OWNS
WHEN THIS FITS
- Reliable flow across enterprise systems, automation, frontline applications, and data
- Safer, more repeatable releases supported by stronger testing
- Better operational visibility and clearer ownership when something fails
- Integration design and delivery across ERP, order management, transportation, automation control, and warehouse systems
- Automation integration, application extensions, and data and reporting work
- End-to-end testing, release automation, exception handling, technical documentation, and maintainability
- Interfaces are fragile, undocumented, or producing recurring failures
- New automation, an ERP change, a new site, or a network change creates new dependencies
- Manual releases, regression risk, reporting gaps, or custom workflow needs are slowing the operation
PERFORMANCE RECOVERY & OPTIMIZATION · SLM STABILIZE
Restore reliable performance and recover value with SLMStabilize
Big systems die slowly. SLM Stabilize finds where recurring issues, workarounds, and constraints are draining performance, then focuses the work on the improvements that matter most.
OUTCOMES
WHAT SLMCON OWNS
WHEN THIS FITS
- A fact-based view of what is constraining performance
- A prioritized recovery or optimization path tied to operating impact
- Agreed changes tested and validated with the people who own the operation
- Diagnosis across the platform, process, data, integrations, labor, and physical flow
- Prioritization based on business consequence, risk, effort, and value
- Targeted remediation, testing, operational validation, and clear handoff
- A recent go-live has not reached a dependable steady state
- Recurring incidents or manual workarounds continue after individual tickets are closed
- Throughput, labor, peak readiness, or platform value is falling short of what the operation needs
WMS SUPPORT & CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT · SLM ORBIT
Protect daily operations and keep improvement moving with SLMOrbit
SLM Orbit keeps experienced ownership close after go-live, providing the specialist capacity needed to resolve issues, support releases, preserve knowledge, and advance practical improvements.
OUTCOMES
WHAT SLMCON OWNS
WHEN THIS FITS
- Clearer support ownership and escalation paths
- Experienced functional and technical capacity matched to the agreed need
- Production support, releases, planned improvements, and capacity use managed in one visible model
- The incident, application, and platform-support responsibilities defined in the support model
- Release stewardship, partner coordination, escalation, and post-release validation
- Knowledge transfer, backlog priorities, and agreed continuous-improvement work
- Internal expertise is limited, overextended, or concentrated in too few people
- Current support is slow, fragmented, or unclear
- The team cannot cover daily support while also moving releases, enhancements, and the roadmap forward
