Yard management suite

Orchestrate every visit on the connected yard platform.

From carrier request to gate-out: gate capture, real-time yard map, dock orchestration, AI-assisted dwell and exception alerts, freight, documents, and automated ERP closeout — one yard management system (YMS) your gate, yard, dock, and carrier teams run together.

Yard intelligence

See the whole visit. Act before it costs you.

AI runs underneath every visit decision — matching, exception detection, dwell risk, and document readiness — while operators stay in control on the connected yard platform.

One orchestrated flow for the whole visit

The yard management suite connects carrier request through gate-out on the connected yard platform — real-time visibility for gate, yard, dock, and carriers.

Gate, yard map, and partner booking orchestrate on one visit — not three tools.
  • Partner request through closeout in one visit lifecycle
  • Dwell and delays visible to yard and carrier before status calls
  • Shared timeline carriers trust without calling the gate

AI-assisted exceptions before detention

Missing paperwork, lane conflicts, no-shows, and stalled closeouts surface on the intelligence panel — predictive dwell risk while operators stay in control.

Intelligence runs underneath visit decisions — your team approves every action.
  • AI-assisted exception detection on the alert panel
  • Open issues show age and recommended next action
  • Dwell, documents, and lane problems flagged before disputes

Gate to dock on one yard map

Staging, door assignment, and live occupancy share the yard map your jockeys run — automated handoffs from gate capture to dock readiness.

Staging and doors follow real-time occupancy — operators stay in control.
  • Assigned spot vs truck actually there — conflict detection
  • Door ready before the truck reaches the apron
  • Printouts and photos tied to each visit stage

Event-driven closeout at gate-out

Gate passes, PDFs, alerts, and ERP events fire automatically from what happened on site — API-first closeout on the connected yard platform.

Automated printouts and ERP events from gate-out — not a separate checklist.
  • Gate pass, BOL, and dispatch pack at gate-out
  • Partners and ERP get the same times, door, and PO
  • Immutable audit trail when finance asks what happened

Connected yard platform

Gate-in to gate-out — one orchestrated yard management system.

Gate, map, dock, partners, documents, and ERP — each module in the suite shares the visit lifecycle with automated handoffs and AI-assisted exception detection where it matters.

  • Requested, confirmed, checked in, at door, completed
  • Auto confirm or Review first — a site setting your yard configures

  • Your material catalog and partner rules per site
  • Photos, POD, driver ID linked to gate and dock events
  • Required fields enforced before yard entry

Dwell & yard intelligence

AI-assisted exceptions while there is still time to act.

Missing paperwork, no-shows, lane pressure, and stalled closeouts surface on the intelligence panel — predictive dwell risk on the visit before detention adds up.

  • AI-assisted exception detection on the alert panel
  • Open issues show age and how long they have been waiting
  • Dwell, documents, and lane problems flagged before disputes
  • Operators stay in control — approve the next action from the visit screen

ERP & closeout

When the truck moves, the right paperwork follows.

Gate passes, PDFs, alerts, and ERP events fire from what happened on site — printouts and attachments go out when gate-out is recorded on the visit.

  • Gate pass, BOL, visit sheet, and dispatch pack
  • Dock and carrier alerts when status or dwell changes
  • Any ERP you run — SAP, Oracle, Dynamics, NetSuite, legacy, and TMS
  • Audit trail when finance or the carrier asks what happened

Live visit example

Watch one truck move through your yard.

Gate, yard, dock, and partners see the same live update. Status, dwell, documents, and closeout change at each step — not on a separate guard log or spreadsheet.
