Inefficiencies in yard management can lead to delays, increased operational costs, and lower overall productivity. Traditional methods often rely on manual processes, which are prone to errors and lack real-time visibility. This can result in trailers being misplaced, underutilized, or causing congestion, leading to a constraint in the supply chain.

Intelligent Yard Management System (IYMS) with Real-Time Tracking and AI Optimization. The Intelligent Yard Management System (IYMS) leverages AI, IoT, and real-time data analytics to optimize the movement and management of trailers within Walmart warehouses and store premises. The system ensures efficient trailer utilization, reduces operational costs, and enhances overall productivity by providing real-time visibility and intelligent decision-making capabilities.
