Solutions for efficient yard management

Yard management, also known as yard management or dock management, plays a critical role in the control and organization of processes at storage and loading areas on plant sites. It includes the planning, coordination and control of assets such as inbound and outbound trucks, trailers, shipments and personnel within a facility’s dock and yard. Sophisticated yard management increases efficiency.

Yard management/yard logistics

Efficient yard management optimizes all processes at the depot – from truck control to ramp coordination. Digital solutions reduce time and personnel costs, minimize errors and increase throughput. The result: shorter waiting times, better planning and faster ROI. Find out more about the benefits of smart yard logistics!

Driver self-service

Self-weighing speeds up the weighing process and reduces waiting times. This leads to a higher throughput rate in the yard. As no additional personnel are required for weighing and terminals are available around the clock, personnel costs can be saved and peak times avoided. The integration of roller shutter and loading controls enables the entire process to run smoothly, from the scales to loading and unloading to the exit.

Vehicle security/
Locker system

Automatic barriers are essential for reliably controlling authorized entrances and exits on company premises. They offer special solutions for high-security areas, such as TÜV-approved gate and parking barriers for factory entrances and airports. A barrier system contributes to the security and efficiency of yard management.

License plate recognition

Automatic license plate recognition and vehicle identification speed up the vehicle management process by reducing manual data entry prior to weighing. Drivers and weighers benefit from faster and simpler processes when recording vehicle data or reconciling data. License plate recognition enables the automation of processes such as vehicle tracking and access control on the factory premises.

Route control

The route control or yard guidance system in yard management deals with the organization and coordination of all movements and processes on the site. It plays a decisive role in the efficient connection of transportation, storage, loading and unloading. Yard management route control organizes, optimizes and controls logistics flows in order to increase efficiency and productivity.

Gate and loading control

Efficient yard management requires precise allocation of gates and real-time management of time slots. This involves coordinating delivery times and monitoring and controlling delivery traffic in the goods receiving area. Another important aspect of yard management is the management of gates and waiting areas for trucks.
