Inventory management in yard operations is one of the largest issues and challenges facilities face daily. When there are multiple pieces running at one time, it’s easy for one piece to slip through the cracks. However, when it happens more than once, the more tangled the web gets weaved. Most of the time, inventory either goes missing or is lost from systems not properly tracking the movement, not having the right amount of visibility, or having data input into the software incorrectly. To prevent these issues from occurring, it’s time to transition from being reactive to proactive and get ahead of the issue before it takes over. An efficient YMS is a software solution that can track inventory as it reaches your facility gate rather than a dock door. Doing this adds an extra layer of visibility of inbound inventory, aiding in activity planning and throughput.

A yard management system comes with its own unique set of bells and whistles. However, let’s add a cherry on top. YMS also has the ability to integrate with other software, including warehouse management systems (WMS), transportation management systems (TMS), and ERP systems to ensure the most efficient, optimized, and accurate yard operations from start to finish. With the implementation of a yard management solution, you’ll see the following benefits to reduce lost or missing inventory:
