Yard Management

Keep every truck, dock and gate moving.

MIXMOVE connects inbound scheduling, yard visibility, dock assignment and EV charging into a single real-time execution layer, so nothing waits longer than it needs to, and nothing moves without the operation knowing about it.

The challenge

Yard delays start when movements fall out of sync.

Yard management complexity

Keeping gates, docks and vehicle movements aligned.

The yard is where transport activity and warehouse execution meet. As vehicles arrive, docks fill and priorities change, teams need a shared view of what is happening across the operation. Without that visibility, small timing gaps can become dwell time, congestion and extra coordination effort.

Where it shows up in your operation
Arrival times and dock availability rarely align

Trucks arrive on their own schedule, while dock availability shifts independently, the two rarely sync up.

Misaligned arrivals
Peak periods overwhelm gate activity

Gate activity becomes harder to manage exactly when volume peaks and margin for error shrinks.

Gate bottlenecks at peak
Yard visibility is partial or delayed

Real-time status across the yard is often incomplete, leaving blind spots on vehicles and docks.

Blind spots in the yard
Dock changes rely on manual coordination

Reassigning docks and directing vehicle movements still depends on manual calls, not system logic.

Slower dock reassignment
SLA deviations surface after the fact

Dwell time and SLA breaches are often spotted only once they’ve already disrupted the flow.

Late SLA detection
How we solve it

From gate activity to dock coordination

MIXMOVE connects yard activity, dock availability, vehicle movements and transport execution into one live operational layer. Teams get one shared view of yard activity, making it easier to keep gates, docks and vehicle movements aligned as priorities change.

Gate-to-dock visibility

Bring arrival information, dock status, yard movements and transport execution data into one operational view.

One connected transport layer linking sites into a central hub

Dynamic dock coordination

Help teams adjust dock assignments, vehicle movements and operational priorities as the yard changes throughout the day.

Yard execution intelligence

Capture events across gates, docks and vehicle movements so teams can reduce waiting time, improve coordination and keep yard execution connected to the wider logistics network.

How it works

From gate entry to outbound departure. Every yard movement connected.

Every stage of yard execution, from the moment a vehicle is expected to the moment it departs, coordinated in real time by a single operational layer.

Gate entry

Vehicles check in via self-service, ANPR or digital workflows. Arrival data is captured automatically and connected to the wider yard operation.

Dock scheduling

Dock slots are assigned based on live ETAs and current availability, and rescheduled automatically when priorities or capacity change.

Yard visibility

Every vehicle, trailer and piece of equipment tracked continuously. Congestion is managed before it builds, not after it has already affected throughput.

EV charging coordination

Charging-aware dock assignment runs automatically against operational priorities, time-of-use tariffs and CO₂ reduction targets.

Outbound departure

Outbound movements confirmed and synced with the transport layer. Every dwell time event and SLA threshold logged automatically in real time.
