Inbound logistics security & scheduling

Mobiledock manages a site’s physical security by pre-approving all authorised carriers, drivers and contractors requesting access, and by restricting that access to those specifically approved for each individual event.

By scheduling the delivery slot’s arrival and departure times, venue managers have an audit trail of which vehicle, and which driver was on site and for how long.

When integrated with systems such as telematics, navigation and route planning, Mobiledock can confirm point of vehicle origin, check driver ID, view the planned route from origin to site and deviation against route.

Mobiledock models the physical and operational capabilities of each individual site, for example, when a holding yard or access road is in use. Site managers can plan delivery times based on vehicle size and load to minimise the number of vehicles in holding areas as well as at the dock (delivery location). Vehicles are called to the dock from holding areas via the Mobiledock platform.

Mobiledock gets vehicles off the surrounding streets reducing local road congestion and improving safety, which is particularly important during peak periods.

Vehicular access to sites can be automated with the use of QR codes. The software solution can integrate with access control (boom gates, LPRs), contractor induction systems, safety software and others via open APIs and webhooks.

Efficient dock management contributes towards a reduction of carbon footprint by reducing truck idle times (as well as minimising fuel use).
