How to build a strong foundation for autonomous yard operations

The Oil Shock: Is it time to move to 100% electric yard trucks?

For years, many organizations treated diesel as a manageable operating cost. Important, yes. Strategic, not really. That assumption looks weaker today than it did even earlier this year.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


Ask our Customer Support

What businesses can benefit from YMX yard jockey services?
 Any businesses with high-volume freight benefit from YMX’s yard jockey solutions, including food and beverage distributors, e-commerce retailers, and industrial manufacturers. Coordinated, tech-enabled yards, managed by our proprietary yard operating system, help ensure the organization of yards, seamless loading and unloading, and the efficiency needed to maintain a smooth supply chain. 
How does YMX’s yard operations management differ from other providers?
Traditional providers provide labor, equipment, or technology, addressing issues as they arise. YMX Logistics takes a fundamentally different approach to outsourced yard management. We focus on solving root problems, building efficiency into the foundation of your operations. 

This is achieved by providing integrated yard logistics that unify people, processes, equipment, and technology into a single Yard Operating System. We own the entire execution process to drive consistent performance outcomes and higher efficiency across enterprise yard operations and supply chains.

How does YMX optimize distribution yard operations?

Yard optimization is achieved through integrated yard logistics that merge on-the-ground operational expertise with advanced technology. This strategy centers on these core pillars:

  • Autonomous Yard Operating System: More than software or a digital layer, YMX’s Yard OS is an integrated operating framework that connects data, labor, assets, processes, safety, sustainability, and performance governance into one execution model. Powered by AI, predictive analytics, and an autonomous operational twin, it enables enterprise shippers to analyze layouts, right-size fleets, test traffic flows, and improve yard execution before changes are implemented.
  • Data Capture: Self-service kiosks, computer vision cameras, and IoT sensors provide real-time visibility.
  • Specialized Shuttling and Spotting Services: Using integrated systems and real-time data, we streamline the precise movement of vehicles across yards to prevent bottlenecks.
  • EV Integration: We factor sustainability into operations by aligning yard workflows, charging infrastructure, and energy management specifically for electric vehicles.
  • Standardized Workflows: We’ve replaced the disconnected yard management with integrated yard logistics, using standard operating procedures and actual performance metrics to drive yard optimization and consistency.
What are the benefits of YMX inbound and outbound yard logistics?

At YMX, we transform traditional enterprise yard operations into a connected, measurable operating system. By combining physical services with digital tools (autonomous technology; EV fleets), we’re able to deliver benefits such as:

  • Inbound and outbound efficiency
  • Real-time visibility into each trailer’s location and status
  • Minimize dwell times, limiting wasted time and the amount of equipment and labor needed
  • Scale operations to match seasonal demand spikes without requiring long-term capital investments
  • Reduced emissions and carbon footprints
  • Enhanced asset protection
