Although
the prospects for the warehousing technology market look upbeat there are some
challenges preventing forward momentum. The sector is generally perceived to be
reluctant in investing in IT. Several factors like the unorganized and
fragmented nature of the sector lack of regulatory compulsion and the view of the
players of IT as an expense
rather
