Yard management is a logistics strategy that is used to track, manage, and optimize the flow of vehicles, trailers, containers, and other assets in and out of a yard or distribution center. Yard management includes activities such as the tracking of vehicles, trailers, and containers, ensuring efficient loading and unloading, and controlling the flow of inbound and outbound shipments.
Yard management systems typically include software, hardware, and communication systems that track and communicate the movements of assets within a yard. This information is then used to optimize the flow of traffic, improve yard utilization, and reduce costs.
Cross-docking in the yard is the process of unloading, sorting, and reloading goods in a yard or warehouse environment, typically in a very short period of time. It is a process that is used to quickly move goods from one location to another without the need for storage. Cross-docking can be used to reduce inventory costs, eliminate handling, and improve cycle times.
A yard is an open area of land that is used to store materials or equipment, such as vehicles, containers, or machinery. It may also be used to hold finished products, such as lumber or coal. A warehouse, on the other hand, is a building or complex of buildings used for storing goods, typically products that are being stored for later sale or distribution. Unlike a yard, a warehouse is typically enclosed and climate-controlled, which allows for more secure storage and better protection from the elements.
