End warehouse queues and save on overtime
Improve yard turnaround time
The lack of an overview about arrival or loading/unloading times lead to endless delays in yard processes and long wait times. Same goes for drivers entering the yard with paper documents that must be scanned and digitised. Dock & Yard Management Hub enables warehouse managers to coordinate and optimise the movement of goods, increase the speed of handling and control downstream processes, boosting productivity by up to 20%.
Maximise capacity usage
Book according to capacity and logistical requirements ie., cold chain, assortment, product group, article, vehicle type. Automatically calculate slot length times based on pallets or storage positions. Handle complex appointments that require chemical resources like pumps, hoses, cleaning and optimise yard check-in processes or call-off approaches via pager, text message or display.
Reduce costs & fees
Automated, real-time driven and collaborative solutions generate savings in process costs, overtime and overstaffing. Reduce wait times by up to 30 to 40% and lower detention and demurrage charges. Eliminate queues and prevent blocking of areas outside your premises.
Know what's arriving next
Due to a lack of information, loading/unloading resources cannot be planned in advance and can only be dispatched at short notice. Transporeon provides the planning and booking of appointments via time slots. That makes arrivals of trucks predictable and by accurate ETAs of those trucks, we provide key insights for warehouse managers and supervisors to be more pro-active.
Knauf Group achieves measurable results with Time Slot Management
Knauf Group successfully reduced demurrage costs, optimised truck arrivals during peak times, and decreased waiting times for call-offs since implementing Time Slot Management to manage their 1,000 outbound shipments per day. With more flexibility to manage schedule changes, staff and carrier dynamics have significantly improved, too.
