Research shows that the yards with the most efficient operations are efficient because of a variety of factors, especially those about how people interact with the machines and equipment, and the flow of operational steps.

Most yards can’t automatically capture data around these interactions and flow with the automated analytics to determine its states to tell a complete story or lead to productivity improvement. The current manual processes of tracking truck activity, times and weights are slow, incomplete, and unreliable. GPS systems are unable to precisely track vehicles within a facility and cannot produce granular data on yard entry and exit, weigh stations, or loading/unloading docks.

Frequently, managers cannot figure out which truck is in the yard and at what location. In fact, they don’t have accurate or up to date data captured to tell their customers whether their trucks are stuck in their yard for loading or if they’re even in the yard at all.

Further, managers have no true visibility into how long a truck is taking in each of the loading and unloading zones nor, can they identify opportunities to reduce cycle time.

So what is the solution? Automate your entire yard operation with real time, digital feedback, gathered automatically and displayed simultaneously.

This visual stream of data is actionable intelligence delivered to your operational team in the same moment it’s captured allowing them to immediately intervene and resolve issues on the spot.

Actionable intelligence = increased productivity!
