Do you know the great thing about standards? There are so many to choose from.
I think the same applies to warehousing capability models. So many things impact warehousing that there is not a single set of capabilities that you can point to and say “this is the capability model”. You either have specialized models for each industry or company or else you have a bloated model where the majority of the model does not apply to any individual case.
I have looked at capability models for warehouses before. The best I can offer is that if you can document the capabilities of the best Tier 1 WMS systems, then you will be pretty close. Manhattan and JDA WMS applications attempt to be configurable for all industries without modifications. Documenting just these, including their interfacing capabilities to MHE, will get you 90% of an universal model.
If you would like to talk more, IM me and we can move to email. I work in this area, maybe we can work something out
