Why is Slot Booking important?
• Carriers and truck drivers can book slots for loading and offloading their vehicles full of goods;
• Warehouse managers to design the timeslots and manage their warehouse docks.
Given that we had access to real time visibility over transports, we were able to automatically book slots upon an arrival of a given vehicle to a warehouse location.
