MINNEAPOLIS – November 10, 2026 – Infios, a global leader in Intelligent Supply Chain Execution, today announced it has been named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Warehouse Management for Manufacturing 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US53013526, October 2026).

We believe the recognition highlights the ability of Infios Warehouse Management (Infios WM) to help manufacturers coordinate people, automation and inventory across the warehouse, while bringing practical AI capabilities into warehouse operations today.

Infios named a Leader in five 2026 IDC MarketScapes

Infios has been recognized as a Leader in the following IDC MarketScape vendor assessments covering order orchestration, transportation management and warehouse management:

  • IDC MarketScape: Worldwide AI-Enabled Order Orchestration and Fulfillment Applications for Retail and B2C 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US53010725, July 2026)

  • IDC MarketScape: Worldwide AI-Enabled Order Orchestration and Fulfillment Applications for B2B and Manufacturing 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US54500126e, August 2026)

  • IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Warehouse Management for Manufacturing 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US53013526, October 2026)

The IDC MarketScape recognizes Infios’s key strengths

According to the IDC MarketScape, “The platform is well suited to manufacturing environments, supporting just-in-time and just-in-sequence supply, kitting, and quality-controlled inventory with hold/release, genealogy, and recall-workbench functionality for regulated production lines.”

The report further stated, “Infios’ AI/agentic strategy, branded Archer, is specific and dated, combining a graduated-autonomy governance model, a named foundation model partnership with AWS, and agents already handling inventory and labor tasks in production.”

“Manufacturers increasingly expect the warehouse to coordinate work across people, automation and plant systems, and to bring AI into daily decisions,” said Stephanie Kirshnan, Associate Vice President, IDC.

“Infios WM combines manufacturing-specific warehouse processes with a clear AI and automation strategy. Paired with Infios's order orchestration and transportation management offerings, Infios offers manufacturers a path to connect execution across the supply chain.”

“Manufacturers need the right material in the right place at the right time, with quality and traceability controls built in,” said Richard Stewart, Chief Growth Officer at Infios. “Infios WM gives them that foundation, and Infios Archer puts AI agents to work today, automating decisions and recommendations on inventory and labor tasks, with governance that lets manufacturers extend autonomy at their own pace. Together with our Leader positions in order orchestration and transportation management, that is Intelligent Supply Chain Execution.”

Part of a broader Intelligent Supply Chain Execution portfolio

Infios WM operates alongside Infios Order Management (Infios OM) and Infios Transportation Management (Infios TM) as part of a single execution platform. Together, these solutions help organizations of all sizes move from fragmented, reactive operations to coordinated, real-time action across order, warehouse and transportation management, which is the core of Intelligent Supply Chain Execution.

Also named a Leader in warehouse management for retail

Infios was also named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape: Worldwide Warehouse Management for Retail 2026 Vendor Assessment (Doc # US53701926, October 2026). We believe the recognition reflects Infios WM’s support for retailers’ high-volume omni-channel fulfillment, including direct-to-consumer, wholesale and marketplace orders. Together, for us the two warehouse management recognitions demonstrate the flexibility and adaptability of Infios WM to address the distinct operational demands of both manufacturing and retail environments.
