Connecting walls to wheels
Turn your yard into an efficient hub where carriers, gates, docks and teams stay aligned in real time. Reduce surprises, shorten dwell time and keep inbound and outbound flows moving with fewer manual handoffs and faster decisions.
THE CHALLENGE
Recurring bottlenecks hurt productivity, costs and service levels.
- Early and late trucks, no-shows, unpredictable arrivals and missing details overwhelm gates and create congestion.
- Manual scheduling and last-minute changes create double bookings and bottlenecks.
- Locating trailer status for loading and unloading causes extra moves, longer dwell times and safety risks due to low yard visibility.
- Labor is stretched at peak moments, overwhelming teams, while slow periods waste resources.
- Precision appointment scheduling matches real-time capacity to your operating rules to smooth yard volume peaks.
- Digital gate check-in + live visibility across vehicles, docks and teams cuts dwell time and reduces unnecessary moves.
- Coordinated execution with synchronized workflows, door availability and carrier ETAs.
- Paperless handoffs with digital documents that reduce errors and support compliance.
- Network-wide standardization across DCs, plants, and 3PLs with shared KPIs, consistent processes and a unified operational view.
THE SOLUTION
Predictability, efficiency, and real-time control across the yard, connecting walls to wheels.
THE RESULT
Reduce wait times by up to 40%, cut process costs by 30% and see a 10% drop in transport costs.
WHAT YOU GET
Time Slot Management
Reduce carrier wait times by 20–40%
Simplify dock and yard operations by bringing inbound and outbound appointments into one place, aligned to your capacity and operating rules. Give both internal teams and carriers a clear, self-serve path to book, update and stay informed as schedules change.
Manage all inbound and outbound scheduling in one unified solution
Business users can adapt the system without IT intervention through self-configuration capabilities
Automated alerts and updates keep all stakeholders informed of schedule changes, capacity adjustments, and disruptions
Reduce waiting times with optimized resource allocation and faster truck turnaround
Replan and reallocate appointments dynamically using real-time ETAs and live yard status to prevent bottlenecks, delays, and stock-outs.
With Yard Visit Portal, carriers self-book within your capacity rules, updates driver and vehicle details, and view route manifests linked to shipment and transport orders
WHAT YOU GET
Real‑Time Yard Management
Boost dock throughput by 10–25%
Improve yard operations with accurate, real-time yard status, better arrival and departure predictions, and automated gate workflows that reduce queues and keep teams aligned.
Accurate prediction of arrival and departure times for better planning
Workflow and resource optimization to reduce waiting and speed up turnarounds
Dynamic scheduling and re-planning to handle early and late arrivals
Quick and automated driver check-in and registration to eliminate queues at the gate
Full yard monitoring with a real-time overview of approaching, waiting, and processing trucks
Proactive updates and notifications to flag deviations early and keep teams aligned
WHAT YOU GET
Digital Transport Documents
Ensure compliance for competitive edge
Replace paper-based transport paperwork with digital workflows for eCMR, DCA and ePOD, so teams can access and sign documents instantly, stay fully compliant and speed up invoicing with fewer disputes.
Centralized eCMR and ePOD gives drivers, warehouse teams, carriers, and shipment providers instant access to the right documents.
Legally valid digital signatures use eIDAS Advanced and are equivalent to ink signatures across borders.
Compliance ready documentation supports EU standards, is ISO IEC 27001 certified, and aligns with GDPR and eIDAS.
Faster invoicing is enabled through instant, verified ePOD that reduces discrepancies and billing delays.
Faster and more accurate handoffs are supported with QR code signing for paperless, audit-ready workflows.
Inspection ready PDFs can be generated instantly to simplify checks and reduce admin effort.
CASE STUDY
A win for cutting call-off and wait times
Knauf Group successfully eliminated peak-time chaos and reduced demurrage costs. Since implementing Time Slot Management across its global manufacturing network, the building materials leader harmonized decentralized logistics into a single "Group Supply Chain" model. By integrating scheduling directly with their ERP system, they have replaced manual yard coordination with a streamlined, digital process that speeds up terminal check-ins and prioritizes loads based on real-time punctuality.
