What are the advantages of driver self-registration?
Driver self-registrationA driver self-registration system offers the main advantage that drivers can register themselves upon arrival without an employee having to register each driver personally.
The most important advantages
- Reduced staffing requirements: Registration is automated, thus relieving the burden on the gatehouse or dispatch department.
- Multilingual messages: Every driver receives all important information in their native language, including safety instructions.
- Shorter waiting times: Drivers can register directly upon arrival instead of waiting for a contact person.
- Available 24/7: The system can also be used outside of normal office hours.
- Structured process: Data such as driver, transport company, vehicle, license plate number and order can be systematically recorded. The Easy-Call software also helps with this.
- Fewer errors: Direct input by the driver reduces transmission errors during manual data entry.
- Improved traceability: It is documented when a driver arrived and what their assignment was. The return of the pager is also recorded.
- Automatic routing: After registration, the system can, for example, send the driver to a waiting area, ramp, or scales.
- Automatic notification: The responsible department can be informed of the arrival, e.g. via pager or our Easy-Call software.
- Integration into existing systems: Our self-registration system can be connected to existing ERP systems or yard management systems, for example.
Example of a typical process
Truck arrives → Driver checks in at the terminal → Order is checked → Driver remains in waiting position → Driver is called with ramp number → Driver receives ramp number → Everyone is informed via Easy-Call software → The end of the recording process is also noted.
This creates a largely automated process from arrival to check-in.
An optional barrier control system is also available.
