Docking Management System – DMS – with docking assignment

Take digital control from entry gate to loading bay and back

Digitalization is accelerating – and the only certainty is that it will continue to do so. A paradigm shift is taking place, where the borders between physical and digital solutions are becoming increasingly blurred. One example is ASSA ABLOY’s DMS – Docking Management System – with docking assignment, a part of ASSA ABLOY Insight. It combines innovation, digitalization and proven experience to optimize and create more efficient logistical facilities – of every scale and type and in every corner of the world.

Take control of your facility with digitalized arrival instructions

A central part of ASSA ABLOY DMS is the automated docking assignment. Through a simple, easy to understand interface, you can create a plan for the day’s arriving and departing transport movements while the system’s registration plate scanning ensures deliveries are directed to the right loading bay at the right time. The Docking Management System can be integrated with other systems in order to extract transport order data. 

Create a digital foundation for more proactive service

Through the DMS interface, we convert information from the loading bays into valuable data – not least in terms of maintenance and service. Through the interface, you enjoy fast control and overview over how many days have elapsed since the previous service or the level of use at each loading bay. You can also monitor alarms, alarm history and trends as well as fault management. All this so that together with our service team or your own maintenance team, you can minimize standstill and create maximum productivity. 

Security and control for increased efficiency and security

Using the DMS interface, you can monitor activity at every loading bay and quickly get an overview of the activity at your facility. Which loading bays are empty? Which ones are occupied? Is loading taking place? Has the truck left the yard? You can control closing and opening remotely and ensure that doors are locked or unlocked at any given time. It’s also simple to grant access to service vehicles or tradesmen over pre-determined time periods. Whatever it takes to create control and security at your facility. 

Put yourself in position for increased efficiency and comprehensive energy savings

A powerful part of the DMS platform is its ability to collate data, analyse and optimize. This creates major opportunities in terms of reducing energy consumption at your facility. With functions such as eco-operation and automatic closing, you can take optimization to the next level – and that’s just the beginning. Perhaps the biggest advantage of ASSA ABLOY’s Docking Management System, DMS, comes when you start to plan and improve workflows with the help of real-time data, historical data and identified trends. It’s at that point that digitalization and ASSA ABLOY’s DMS really starts working for you and your operations.
