The opportunity for real-time location systems (RTLS) in Yard Management.

An overlooked and critical operational area is the yard - that area between the warehouse and the transportation system.

Increasing real-time visibility is key to achieving greater efficiencies in logistics management practices. As all goods often go through multiple yards throughout the lifecycle, any inefficiencies or errors in the yard are amplified as the effects propagate through the supply chain network.

PINC Solutions developed the first passive RFID based Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) for precise yard management and supply chain visibility.

As food safety legislation heats up, shippers can enhance the security of their supply chains - and reduce costs - by turning their attention to yard management solutions.
