Real-Time Visibility To All Yard Operations

Yard Management

Light on infrastructure, heavy on capabilities

Cognosos’ Yard Visibility Suite closes the gap between transportation and warehouse management systems, bringing critically needed visibility to yard operations. From trailers to switchers and containers our easily-installed technology brings assets on-line enabling them to self report location, while our powerful software provides tools and insights to help manage a variety of important functions that ensure operations throughout yards, lots and remote storage areas flow smoothly and efficiently. Unlike conventional yard management systems, the Cognnosos visibility suite is built on patented location and communications technology that give assets an automatic, real time reporting ability without requiring costly RFID readers or yard checks.
