Upon the empirical findings, the primary indicator to enhance the warehousing by means of information system. In addition to logistics 4.0, this research puts forward a conceptual concept on smart warehouse, named the futuristic warehouse synergy incorporating both internal and external blockchain of the warehouse. Traditionally, the warehouse storage area is filled through business and marketing agreements. The innovative idea proposed in this research is an online smart contract, which will be more reliable, less time consuming, data analytics and end-to-end inventory tracking. Therefore, this proposed solution promotes a single online platform that allows shippers and warehouse operators to participate in warehouse online booking and cargo storage. In addition, the implementation of an integrated warehouse management system (iWMS) will organise and carry out warehouse activities at maximum use of technology. The efficient iWMS manages the storage facilities of the warehouse and integrates the available storage space into the warehouse storage space reservation hub system. Given this, the proposed conceptual futuristic warehouse synergy also has consulted with professional experts on the realizability of this idea to be implemented in the future. As such, these technologies work together to enable cargo owners to reserve warehouse storage space online and warehouse operators can increase the warehouse fill rate through continuous online booking.
