Gate Operations

Check-In Wizard: Guided flow: scan trailer → auto-lookup appointment by carrier SCAC + trailer number → verify seal → auto-suggest nearest empty parking slot...

Outcomes

  • Cleaner gate event timelines for operations.
  • Improved visibility into entry and exit flow.

Dock Scheduling

Appointment Calendar: Visual Gantt timeline of dock door availability (rows = doors, columns = 30-min slots) TMS Trip ETA Display: Pull upcoming trip ETAs...

Outcomes

  • More predictable ETA-to-door execution.
  • Lower dock contention and idle delays.

Yard Tasks

Work queue for yard jockeys - move, spot, pull, inspect, fuel trailers.

Outcomes

  • Task Types: Move (A->B), Spot (park at dock), Pull (remove from dock), Inspect, Fuel (reefer)
  • Priority System: Urgent > High > Normal > Low; then driver-waiting > appointment proximity > reefer...

  • Location Tracking: Real-time location (parking slot, dock door, gate, ground stack zone, in-transit within yard)
Open feature detail

Container Interchange

Manage the "drop loaded / pick up empty" container workflow, the most common intermodal yard operation.

Outcomes

  • Container Check-In: ISO 6346 container number validation (owner+serial+check digit), container size (20ft/40ft/40HC/45ft), container type (dry/reefer/open top/flat...
  • Interchange Types: Drop Loaded, Drop Empty, Pick Loaded, Pick Empty, Drop-and-Pick (combined), Live Load, Live Unload

  • Dock Turn Time: Average time trailer spends at dock door
Open feature detail

Journey Contracts (Normative)

The following contracts define mandatory behavior when dependencies are unavailable or stale.

Outcomes

  • Implemented journey contract execution and audit replay semantics for degraded, offline, and stale dependency states.
  • Operator-visible fallback messaging and recovery flows are validated for gate/check-in and task lifecycle transitions.
Open feature detail

Degraded-Mode Validation Scenarios

Built degradation validation harness and scenario coverage for offline mode and degraded operational fallbacks.

Outcomes

  • Built degradation validation harness and scenario coverage for offline mode and degraded operational fallbacks.
  • Added recovery requirements, manual confirmation controls, and consistency guarantees for replayed actions.
Open feature detail

Pilot Mobile Integration

YMS provides the backend APIs; Pilot app provides the mobile UI for yard jockeys who spend their entire shift in yard mules.

Outcomes

  • Mobile Task Interface: Task queue with accept/reject buttons, one-tap start/complete, inline photo capture for issues.
  • Push Notifications for Urgent Tasks: When YMS auto-assigns an URGENT task, push notification to assigned jockey's...
Open feature detail

Device Gateway

Hardware devices (OCR cameras, RFID readers, truck scales, reefer units, sensors, kiosks, gate arms) register through a unified API with auto-generated API keys.

Outcomes

  • Device gateway now enforces registration lifecycle, heartbeat checks, command dispatch, and fault-to-work-order automation.
  • Fault telemetry from devices is routed into CMMS and audit-ready operational event streams.
Open feature detail

Industry Standards & Codification

YMS uses industry standards for container identification, trailer classification, and food safety compliance.

Outcomes

  • Integrated ISO/NMFC/FDA/FMCSA-linked data dictionaries into gate, dock, and codification behavior.
  • Codified standard mappings now drive interoperability and regulatory consistency across downstream contracts.
