4SIGHT Launches Smart Gate Access Solution for Intelligent Dock Operations

January 27, 2021
SupplyChainBrain

4SIGHT has recently announced the launch of Connect Digital Gate, a logistics solution for warehouse and distribution center dock operations to improve driver scheduling and communications.

Relying on 4SIGHT Connect Digital Gate as the ideal gate access solution, facilities can:

  • Proactively schedule docks for loading/unloading.
  • Send drivers to the right location, based on availability, and upon arrival.
  • Monitor drivers’ check-in/check-out status and capture metrics on how long drivers spend at facilities. 
  • Provide authority to turn drivers away if needed.
  • Simplify communication between drivers and facilities via text messaging and voice calls.
  • Ensure real-time carrier notifications. 
  • Provide reports and documentation needed to refute any detention charges.

With 4SIGHT Connect Digital Gate’s software, facilities will be able to schedule appointments, provide self check-in for drivers, track performance across all departments via an interactive dashboard, manage arrived shipments with or without an appointment, view shipment status and configure custom real-time alerts and KPIs.

In addition, the product’s 4SIGHT Connect Hub includes Mobile Xpress features allowing drivers to pre-check into facilities. This no-touch access process for drivers also allows drivers to self check in or out via their mobile device. Using 4SIGHT Connect Digital Gate’s Driver Control software, facilities can manage check-in and check-out in either English or Spanish, gather driver information for on-site communication, manage driver interaction with facilities via intercom, route drivers to the dock or other designated location and facilitate gate access. 

 

About 4SIGHT Logistics Solution and 4SIGHT Connect

4SIGHT Logistics Solution evolved from more than 60 years of experience innovating loading dock equipment and specialty industrial doors to improve the safety and operational efficiency of warehousing, manufacturing, retail, and distribution center customers. 4SIGHT Connect was developed by leveraging that experience into an operationally-based approach to assist facilities in optimizing their yard, loading dock and warehouse logistics through real-time, automatic visibility and productivity tools.
