Loadsmart Launches Yard Management System

[ March 14, 2025   //   ]

Logistics provider Loadsmart launched its new Yard Management System, which digitizes docks, yards and gates by enabling customers to oversee truck movements, track assets and improve coordination from one interface.
The YMS is built directly into Opendock, the dock scheduling tool for more than 3,500 facilities nationwide. Customers can also integrate Opendock with NavTrac, Loadsmart’s asset intelligence solution powered by computer vision, optical carrier recognition and artificial intelligence.
Opendock and NavTrac now bring gate and yard management and dock scheduling into a single digital workflow, eliminating manual driver check-in and routine yard audits while automating visibility, Loadsmart said.
“Yard management systems bring control tower functions to operators, deriving their value from integration with order, inventory, people, automation, and transportation management solutions,” said Paul Brisson, Loadsmart’s Director of Product Management for Dock and Warehousing.
“The Opendock YMS extends our existing gate and dock management mechanisms, adding value beyond just the yard,” said Paul Brisson, director of product management for dock and warehousing. “Customers can easily integrate with their existing WMS, ERP, and TMS. Unlike other solutions on the market, we designed our YMS alongside our customers to be easy to set up and use on a day-to-day basis.”
Among the YMS features are fully customizable yard view, driver self-check in, drag and drop assignments, two-way SMS, asset tracking and custom yard setup.
