CLIENT VOICES
Here's what our customers are saying
Time Slot Management optimizes internal processes, increases handling capacity, and reduces delays as well as loading and unloading times.
Primary features
Digital resource management
Docks and unloading resources are digitally mapped with the requirements of the shipment to be loaded or unloaded, then assigned to the best fitting resource (e.g. forklifter, bay, ramp, etc.) and managed through the system.
Slot length and transport data
The system determines the required loading time based on the specifics and transport data of the shipment and available resources at the warehouse. Alternate time-slot length availability and booking is also possible. All information is available centrally, including vehicle and driver information, or health and safety lists for every party involved in the process, shipper as well as carrier, LSP or goods reciepient.
Centralized information & documentation
The loading or unloading status of each truck can be viewed and updated by all departments and involved parties in real time. Documentation of registrations, safety instructions and status changes are audit-proof.
Automatic evaluations
You can prepare standard reports and evaluate KPIs at the press of a button, e.g. to meet deadlines and determine truck waiting or processing times.
