Effective management of freight traffic arrivals
When trucks wait, production and logistics lose money
TLS (transport logistics system) actively manages the entire process from the arrival of the vehicle to its departure from the plant or warehouse.
TLS automates the planning, recording, and navigation of trucks on the premises. The result is shorter loading and unloading times, less downtime, and a controlled transport process that reduces costs in the long term.
In practice, this means that operations can handle higher traffic volumes without chaos and unnecessary delays – similar to our completed projects.
See how we set up traffic management for specific clients
TLS makes sense if:
-
trucks wait on ramps longer than they should,
-
carriers refuse to drive to you or increase prices due to downtime,
-
transport is planned manually and every change causes chaos,
-
drivers get lost on the premises, causing traffic jams and safety risks,
-
truck delays lead to production stoppages or shipping delays,
-
you don't have a realistic overview of where vehicles are and what is happening.
Carriers reserve time slots in advance. The system spreads out arrivals to avoid peaks and downtime.
Transport planning
01.
The driver registers via a mobile app, self-service terminal, or at the gatehouse, where the gatekeeper has an overview of scheduled vehicles. The system verifies the schedule, identifies the vehicle, and assigns the next step.
REGISTRATION UPON ARRIVAL
02.
Integration with barriers and cameras (license plate reading) enables automated entry without manual intervention.
ENTRANCE TO THE PREMISES
03.
The driver is guided to a specific dock. Information panels display the transport plan, completed loads, and the current status of the site, while traffic lights and sensors control movement and occupancy.
NAVIGATION ON THE DOCK
04.
The warehouse has an overview of planned and current shipments. Individual stages of the process are recorded in real time.
Loading and unloading
05.
After completing the operation, the system records the departure time and frees up capacity for the next vehicle.
Leaving the plant
06.

Overview of transport and vehicles
Real-time dashboards and reports provide an overview of performance and capacity utilization.
Planning trips and capacities in time slots
Transport is spread across time slots to avoid peaks and downtime.
Automated vehicle registration and navigation on site
Trucks are navigated directly to a specific ramp – no wandering around or traffic jams.
Integration with WMS and ERP systems
Transport is linked to the warehouse, shipping, and production planning without duplicate data entry.
Digital checklist with photo documentation
When checking a delivery, it is possible to record deficiencies, add a photo, and save the record as a basis for a complaint. The system can automatically notify the responsible person.
Mobile app and self-service terminals for drivers
Quick registration, support for 10+ languages, notifications about the next step, and contactless communication.
Also available as a greentls service:
-
monthly payments without initial investment,
-
quick deployment,
-
scalability according to transport volume.
Hardware for input and dock management
TLS can operate as standalone software or in combination with hardware for managing vehicle entry, docking, and movement. Hardware elements provide automated driver registration, navigation, and access control within the premises.
