As a global leader in yard management solutions since 2004, Kaleris YMS offers a broad range of solutions that are trusted by leading brands and offer unique capabilities for real-time location systems, automated gate check-in, task automation, and more.
Whether you’re looking to solve challenges for a large enterprise or a single-site yard, we have a solution for yards of all shapes and sizes.
Yard Truck & Shuttle Management
Through an in-cab touch monitor, Kaleris facilitates two-way communication between the traffic managers and the drivers to assign, prioritize, and confirm tractor-trailer move tasks. Additionally, yard managers can solve yard management challenges by monitoring the location of the yard and shuttle trucks in real time.
Carrier Collaboration from Manufacturer to Final Destination
Carriers gain real-time visibility over assets in the customers’ yards and can make gate appointments online 24/7, eliminating the need for frequent phone calls and faxes. Carriers can also perform live inventory checks, view current load status, and obtain historical records of asset activities.
Real-time Visibility
Real-time location systems (RTLS) enable users to track and locate yard assets in real-time using passive RFID, GPS, and other sensors. All the information collected is presented in an easy-to-use, cloud-based system. Automate railcar movement tracking with AEI fixed and mobile device integration.
Reports & Analytics
Kaleris YMS provides more than 100 standard reports and dashboards including recent arrivals, departures, and yard capacity. See empties by the carrier, which can be augmented by custom reports. Reports can be exported by yard managers to Excel or scheduled to be run at predetermined times.
Seamless Integration
Kaleris yard management software enhances the value of existing warehouse management systems (WMS), transportation management systems (TMS), and enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems through easy integration and the provision of real-time visibility and data via web API.
Dock Management
Provides a graphical view of dock doors, showing yard asset details and the ability to initiate moves to and from the door. Additionally, it includes Dock Scheduling capabilities, which are used as an inbound load planning tool by yard managers or trading partners.
Gate Management
The gate system can be manned or unmanned in managing inbound and outbound rail and truck shipments. This automatic process streamlines gate procedures and increases the velocity of gate check-in and check-out of yard tractor trailers, yard trucks, shuttle trucks, tractors, and drivers up to 100%.
Reefer Management
