Carrier, trailer, PO, shipment, freight, and document rules are known before the truck can create surprise work at the gate.
See every yard visit before delay takes over.
Flodock connects partner requests, gate capture, dock and yard movement, freight lines, documents, and ERP outputs on one visit record — so operators act early and carriers stop chasing status calls.
When the operation becomes visible, the cost of delay stops hiding.

Mission And Vision
Make every yard visit visible before it becomes cost.
Flodock exists for the moment when a truck, dock, document, carrier, and ERP signal are all moving at the same time, but nobody has one operating picture. Our vision is a logistics network where yards, carriers, docks, and systems work from the same live record.

Industry Pressure
Detention and dwell are measured problems — not opinions.
Flodock does not invent customer savings. These figures come from transportation and data-quality research. They explain why yards need one visit record from request to gate-out.
39.3%Stops reported with detention
Drivers reported detention at 39.3% of all stops in 2023 (wait beyond two hours).
ATRI, Costs and Consequences of Truck Driver Detention, 2024135M+Hours lost in for-hire trucking
For-hire trucking lost more than 135 million hours to detention in 2023.
ATRI, 2024$15BAnnual detention impact
$11.5B lost productivity plus $3.6B in direct expenses.
ATRI, 20246.2%Crash-rate risk from dwell
A 15-minute increase in average dwell was estimated to lift expected crash rate by 6.2%.
U.S. DOT Office of Inspector General, 2018What this means
When trucks wait, cost, risk, and phone calls compound.
Yards that cannot see gate-in, staging, dock assignment, and closeout on one timeline lose time to status calls, disputes, and late ERP updates. Flodock makes that timeline visible before delay spreads.

What Flodock Tracks
One visit record from partner request to ERP closeout.
The hero above is illustrative demo data. In production, the same fields come from your gate, dock, yard map, freight capture, and integration rules.
- Gate-in and gate-out times
Dwell and on-site time stay tied to the visit — not a separate spreadsheet.
- Door, zone, and spot assignment
Gate-to-dock movement is visible to yard teams and partners on the same record.
- Partner requests and visit status
Flow Dock Partners and Yard Management share one lifecycle from request to close.
- Freight lines per visit
Article, quantity, BOL, batch, and lot captured when the truck is on site.
- Yard map: assignment vs presence
See when a spot is assigned, occupied, informal, or in conflict.
- Outputs and ERP handoff
Printouts, attachments, notifications, and ERP sync queue from the visit timeline.
Visit lifecycle
Gate-to-dock movement without blind spots.
Carriers see simple status. Operators keep the record that proves what happened, where time was spent, and which outputs completed.
01 Compliance
Book
Carrier requests a slot and required facts before the truck reaches the yard.
02 Policy
Verify
Yard rules expose exceptions, no-show risk, and document gaps early.
03 Capture
Gate
Guard captures driver, trailer, lane, freight, and documents in one visit record.
04 Map
Move
Operators stage, assign Door B08, and keep gate-to-dock movement visible.
05 Output
Close
Output completion, actual departure, and audit-ready history close together.
Realtime accountability
Every exception ages in public until it moves.
Gates, docks, yard teams, carriers, and integrations share the same signal — so no-shows, dwell, missing documents, and stalled outputs do not hide behind phone calls.

Outputs And Integrations
Every movement should create the right business artifact.
Yard systems fail when progress stops at a status change. Flodock ties physical movement to printouts, PDFs, attachments, emails, alerts, webhooks, ERP outbox events, partner handoffs, and audit-ready history from the same visit record.
