Every trailer located, every dock reconciled — automatically.
A DC or 3PL can’t see where trailers sit in the yard, and dock-door reconciliation is manual. Drivers and shunters waste time; mis-ships slip through.
What the programme delivered.
Cycle-count time vs manual counts.
Trailer dwell with live yard visibility.
Dock-door load reconciliation accuracy.
Client identity withheld under confidentiality. Figures reflect outcomes from comparable RTLS/RFID deployments; your own numbers depend on use case, environment and execution.
The challenge
Manual yard checks and clipboard dock audits are slow and error-prone. Trailer dwell eats capacity; reconciliation errors cause claims and rework.
Our approach
- GPS / UWB for yard trailer and shunter location.
- RAIN RFID dock-door portals for automatic load/unload reconciliation.
- Geofenced alerts for dwell, detention and mis-spotting.
- Cycle-count automation for inbound/outbound.
- Feed events into WMS / YMS for live visibility.
Technology & integration
Stack deployed: GPS + UWB yard location, RAIN RFID dock portals, BLE for returnables.
Integration: WMS, YMS, TMS, carrier / ASN data.
