This is nice. It gave an insight about something similar that could be developed as an extension to WMSes (warehouse management systems) in use by Logistics Operators.
The product would work as a openly accessible integration layer to the WMS -- which is usually hard to integrate to any system. Customers or partners to this warehouse could use the SDK to develop integrations on their side to favor inter company workflows or even brand new products that would rely on that warehouse somehow. Business model could be similar to Bitnami's plus customer support plans.
