Optimize Daily Warehouse Dock Usage

Reconcile Warehouse and Delivery ETA Data

Easily ingest all tracking data from your trucks or your truck data provider to log arrival times and schedule changes, as well as warehouse data. Leverage the provided flow to develop a strong data baseline to understand past trends, model impact of changes in delivery time, and make decisions.

View Planned Dock Activities

Get operational insights at different levels of granularity (by truck, dock, inventory levels, etc.) through a visual, user-friendly interface. Enter planning changes dynamically and factor changes.

Reduce Truck Waiting Time

Understand initial vs. proposed allocation across delivery docks. Ensure field decisions are powered by data for maximized reactivity to delivery time evolutions.  

Keep All Team Members in the Loop

Easily generate near real-time alerts for all team members. Warehouse managers, supply chain analysts, and other operators receive the right alerts at the right time and can adjust their activities based on them.

Scale Approach Across Distribution Centers

Leverage the Dataiku Solution for Delivery Dock Optimization as is, adjust data inputs, and instantiate across supply chain facilities with fine-tuning of specific parameters through a business-friendly Dataiku Application.

Reinforce Delivery Management With Shippeo

Answer Key Supply Chain Delivery Questions

The Dataiku Solution for Delivery Dock Optimization helps answer a broad range of questions like:

• Do I have enough workers tomorrow to ensure the easy and smooth unloading of all trucks expected to arrive at the warehouse?
• What will the usage rate of my docks be this afternoon?
• I have an unexpected delivery truck coming in an hour. How can I operate efficiently to minimize the overall waiting costs?
• I have no tracking information about a set of late incoming trucks that needed to be unloaded 30 minutes ago. When will they arrive?
• What is the expected delivery delay, and how can I adapt the planning of the docks?

Optimize Yard Management Efficiency

Design a comprehensive view of planned schedules, analyze performance, run scenarios, and optimize dock slotting to adapt to potential delays. Integration with Shippeo allows fast optimization, paving the way for more resilient management of supply chain and logistics.
