AI-Based Yard, Timeslot Management Software

INFORM launched its yard and timeslot management system SYNCROSUPPLY, an artificial intelligence (AI)-based yard and timeslot management software system that optimizes incoming and outgoing material deliveries at industrial facilities.

“Through our market research we found the yard management segment in North America is saturated with numerous solution offerings, but very few of these solutions are able to truly support digitalization and have the capability to support AI and autonomous vehicle integration. Knowing that many organizations are focusing not only on increased efficiency, but also further advancing their technological capabilities and resilience to potential disruption, it seemed like the perfect time to bring SYNCROSUPPLY to the North American Market while continuing to grow our team here,” says Daniel Gosson, director manufacturing logistics at INFORM North America.

Key takeaways:

• This AI-powered solution manages thousands of trucks per day in manufacturing and production facilities around the world. Utilizing SYNCROSUPPLY, INFORM global customers have realized up to an 85% increase of planned dispatch as well as a 30% increase in overall sales potential.
• The platform addresses key logistical challenges, including the efficient utilization of facility and workforce capacity; prioritizing time-critical inbound materials and delivering materials to dock doors in the right sequence; ensuring compliance with process requirements and regulatory controls; monitoring, visibility, and automation of truck and trailer yard operations; and achieving seamless integration among inbound, in-plant, and outbound logistics.
