Top Yard Challenges | Meeting Sustainability Targets in Logistics

Excessive Fuel Consumption

Without optimized routes and real-time tracking, yard jockeys and trucks spend more time idling and driving unnecessary miles, directly increasing fuel consumption and emissions.

Wasteful Paper-Based Processes

Relying on paper manifests, logs, and checklists creates unnecessary waste and a larger carbon footprint from printing and disposal.

No Emissions Data

Without a digital system to track and analyze all yard activity, it's impossible to accurately measure your carbon footprint or track your progress toward sustainability targets.

Inefficient Resource Use

A lack of optimization leads to inefficient use of everything from energy for lighting to the wear and tear on your equipment, increasing your overall environmental impact.

Difficulty Reporting

Without a centralized, automated system, gathering the data needed for accurate sustainability reporting is a time-consuming and often inaccurate manual process.
