In today’s fast-paced global supply chain, efficient container yard operations are crucial in ensuring timely shipments and cost-effective logistics. Yet, many businesses struggle with excessive dwell time, leading to higher operational costs, delayed deliveries, and inefficiencies in warehouse space utilization. Smart tracking solutions are revolutionizing the way container yards are managed, offering real-time visibility, IoT cargo monitoring, and predictive analytics to optimize operations.
What is dwell time? Dwell time refers to the period a container spends at a port, terminal, or container yard before being transported to its next destination. High dwell times can lead to increased storage costs, congestion, and operational bottlenecks.
Why does it matter?
Despite efforts to improve efficiency, many logistics operators face persistent challenges in reducing dwell time, including:
To address these challenges, smart tracking solutions leverage real-time AIS data, predictive analytics, and IoT integration. Here’s how:
