Goal to goal: No more chaos in yard and goal management.

Waiting or jammed trucks in the yard can block the entrances and exits and thus disrupt the flow on the company premises. For most, goods arrive at and leave the logistics center every day - so there is a lot of loading and unloading traffic. In order to ensure a smooth rotation of goods, it is important to keep an eye on the status of the individual gates and to make optimum use of the availability of resources. Certainly, the use of Excel lists is also possible, but with this there is no link to the warehouse management system. This means that important data and an all-encompassing overview are missing.

‍Efficientand transparent yard and gate management
The gate and yard management integrated in our warehouse management system SuPCIS-L8 gives the user a transparent overview of the availability of the individual gates at all times. In practice, each truck can be announced manually in advance in the system or deposited after arrival at the gate. Reservations for upcoming incoming or outgoing goods at the gates are also possible using the dashboard. At the same time, further details such as the duration of occupancy, the planned arrival or departure of a truck, the vehicle registration number, the load or pre-registration number and the occupancy type (e.g. entrance) can be viewed and mapped. Based on this information, the system visualizes the logistic processes. If overlapping or overbooking of the individual gates occurs due to several actual and planned occupancies and delays are caused as a result, this is taken into account.

‍Unloading goodsand immediately loading them again
The incoming and departing trucks and the occupancy of the individual warehouse gates are usually to be considered independently of each other. However, a combined process is also possible. That is, truck A arrives at gate 1 and unloads the loaded goods. After the truck is empty, it can be loaded with new goods before departure. This process is managed in our warehouse management software.

The efficient coordination of all processes at the gates and in the yard enables users to plan sensibly for loading at the gates. This shortens the throughput and waiting times of transport vehicles on the plant premises, increases transparency and optimizes logistics processes overall.
