The challenge
Warehouse floor supervisors lacked mobile terminal access while inspecting loading bays, requiring them to walk back to office workstations to check inventory databases.
Staged pallet location discrepancies delayed outbound truck departures, driving detention penalties of $250,000 annually.
Dispatchers could not verify real time trailer loading status without radioing dock operators repeatedly during busy night shifts.
