ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems: 4SIGHT yard and dock management system

Using real-time and physical data, the 4SIGHT yard and dock management system by ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems helps facilities efficiently manage operations including loading dock visibility, live and staged trailer coordination, and turn time management.

The system quickly integrates equipment with intelligent software to monitor, communicate and manage dock status. Featuring a simple, easy-to-use interface, the system combines information from RFID, GPS and other sensor technologies to provide real-time yard and loading dock visibility, full automation and optimization from the time a vehicle approaches the inbound gate to the time it exits the outbound gate.

It also provides maintenance scheduling based on actual usage, sending an automated e-mail to service providers and maintenance personnel with notifications about affected dock doors requiring service.

• Business Analysis: Captures the functional requirements and design of the software enhancements.
• Program Development: Generates code for software enhancements.
• Data Interface: Designs and develops required data sets to interact with existing necessary systems (WMS, TMS).
• QA Testing: Ensures the software enhancements work as designed and in conjunction with the rest of the application.
• Documentation: Updates application documentation such as User Guides, Training Guides and Administrative Guides.
