Operational control
A yard cockpit.
A connected operation.
Know what is expected, what has arrived and where the next movement belongs, across warehouses and loading points.
See the site as it operates.
Represent warehouses, loading points, docks and platforms in a digital layout. Compare occupancy with available capacity and follow vehicles through gate queue, in-yard, on-ramp and outbound lanes.
Plan arrivals around the work.
Coordinate loading and unloading calendars, available slots and booking rules. Carriers book against the trip through their portal, giving the gate a scheduled arrival instead of a phone call.
Assign the right loading point.
Allocate vehicles to a ramp, dock or platform. Distinguish free, occupied and maintenance status, so teams can coordinate arrivals with the capacity that is actually available.
Carry the instructions through.
Connect warehouse checklists, seal records and dock assignments with the trip. Notify the driver or carrier by SMS or WhatsApp through the configured messaging service.
From appointment to departure
Every step recorded.
Every team informed.
Each milestone becomes an event on the trip, visible in the control tower. Apply the stages your site requires.

Weighing, gate validation and loading-point rules follow the equipment and operating requirements of each location.
Equipment & appointment integration
Connect the gate.
Connect the weight.
Connect the booking.
Exchange operational events with gate hardware and appointment systems through JSON REST interfaces or queues, without being tied to a single equipment manufacturer.
Weighbridge
Connect weight to the movement.
Capture gross, tare and net weights against a trip or handling unit, on arrival and departure.
- Weight tolerances and exception handling
- Hold at the dock when required weighing is missing
- A traceable record for CMR documentation and transport costs
Gross / tare / net
LPR
Recognize the vehicle at the gate.
Match a licence plate read to the tractor, trailer and appointment, without retyping it at the barrier.
- Vehicle identification linked to the booking
- Check-in events attached to the trip
- Alerts for unknown plates or arrivals outside the slot
Plate / booking / check-in
TAS
Let valid bookings drive arrivals.
Use inbound and outbound slots from a truck or terminal appointment system, or from the iBisTMS loading calendar.
- Booking confirmation and status exchange
- No-show handling and rescheduling
- Valid appointments visible to the gate team
Slot / confirmation / arrival
Configured for your site.
Interface mapping, device connectivity, validation rules and messaging channels are agreed during implementation. The same trip links appointments, vehicle recognition, weight records and yard execution.
Indicators that support action
See where the operation
needs attention.
Use yard events to follow workload, occupancy and waiting, with the context needed to act on exceptions.
Trips & flow
Expected, arrived and completed trips, with current in-yard and on-ramp counts.
Capacity & utilization
Occupied loading points against available capacity, including unavailable maintenance areas.
Waiting & dwell
Time at the gate, before allocation and within the yard, based on recorded milestones.
Exceptions
Missing weights, unknown plates, arrivals outside booking windows and no-shows.
Where it fits
From retail distribution
to industrial yards.
For distribution centres, hubs and cross-docks, industrial warehouses and gated sites with a weighbridge.
Part of the same iBisTMS operation.
Connect yard execution with transport planning, warehouse data ingestion and the driver app. Keep operational milestones on the trip throughout the flow.
Your yard. Your operating rules.
Bring the yard into
your transportation plan.
