Digital Signage from IAdea Germany Saves Time for Logistics Professionals

The ‘DS Logistics Call System’ from the German digital signage pioneer IAdea Germany has been specifically developed for the logistics sector. The goal is to optimize the inbound and yard management for all parties involved in terms of time.

(Hamburg) – In a just-in-time world, the warehouse is the road. Millions of trucks are on the move every day. For freight forwarders, not only is the ‘road’ an immense challenge – traffic jams, accidents, breakdowns, customs, tolls, etc. – but the pickup and delivery of goods is often logistically extremely demanding due to the ‘unpredictability of the road’.

Together with Partners for Success

IAdea Germany has taken on the problem of goods delivery and has developed the ‘DS Logistics Call System’ in collaboration with partners based on its own digital signage technology.

Saving Time, Money, and Nerves

The DS Logistics Call System relieves drivers, employees, and access roads. The management of their processes begins long before the truck is nearby. Time slots are optimized, truck waiting areas and buffer zones are included and allocated, and information for drivers and employees is presented transparently. Automation and self-service at terminals also save time, money, and nerves. Language barriers are easily overcome. The significant advantage is that all parties are always up to date.

The benefits of the DS Logistics Call System are manifold for all parties involved:

• Coordinated inbound management
• Buffering outside (Optional)
• Demand-oriented calling
• Multilingual terminals
• Dynamic process optimization in real-time
• Yard management (spaces and gates)
• Faster truck throughput
• Reduced waiting times
• Timestamp of all actions
• GPS real-time data collection (Optional)

Even in advance, transport companies or truck drivers themselves can inform themselves about the events during pickup and delivery via website integration or smartphone app, thanks to the digital signage technology of the DS Logistics Call System, and adjust their own logistics accordingly. As Dipl.-Kfm. Björn Christiansen, managing partner of IAdea Germany, states: “In logistics, more than in any other industry, ‘time is money’. With our DS Logistics Call System, we can optimize the timing processes, especially in inbound and yard management. Digital signage provides optimal visibility on-site, on the web, or on the smartphone app, and the integrated web technology offers the appropriate integration into the logistics systems of all parties involved. In this regard, the Hamburg-based digital signage provider IAdea Germany supports customers with its many years of experience as a German digital signage pioneer through hardware and software as well as service and support even after commissioning.”www.digitalsignage.deImage: © IAdea Deutschland GmbH
