Increase Visibility and Productivity with Yard Management

Many companies have automated their warehouses, yet still handle yard management using labor-intensive manual processes, such as writing pads or spreadsheets, to manage hundreds of inbound and outbound trailers. As a result, trailer inventory is difficult to access and manage, and cross-dock opportunities are often lost. Yard management is clearly the next bottleneck to remove for decreased cost, increased productivity and improved supply chain visibility.

CatalystCommand Yard Management treats the distribution center yard as an extension of the warehouse. The system optimizes yard, dock and warehouse performance by providing greater visibility into assets and inventory in trailers parked in the warehouse yards. Yard Management makes warehouse operations more efficient for both inbound and outbound shipments by improving visibility of expected loads and trailers and then managing activities between yard gate and dock door.
