Eliminate dock congestion with capacity-driven scheduling & yard management.
TVM aligns bookings with real operational capacity, orchestrates every handover, and gives you full visibility on performance — from gate to dock.
Used by the world's leading warehouse operators and forwarders
Orchestrate every truck visit.
Not just schedule it.
Most dock schedulers cut down on phone calls and emails. TVM goes further: steering demand to your real operational capacity, coordinating every actor in the freight handover process, and generating performance data you can actually use. Proven in both air cargo hubs and off-airport.
How it works
Built around your reality
Model warehouses, dock doors, zones, staff availability, and service windows so bookings are steered to true capacity, not just a simple calendar slot. And when reality changes - a dock door out of service, staff down, equipment unavailable - you adjust capacity in real time. Bookings automatically follow. Your operation keeps moving.
Pre-arrival readiness
Carrier/driver self-service booking with advanced document & status validation, ASN/PO checks, customs paperwork flags, reducing failed visits and detention.
Gate-to-dock execution
Gate check-in, call-forwarding, driver communications, and callbacks to sequence yard to door movements optimize truck movements. Supports ANPR /QR code checks and photo/timestamp evidence capture. Smoother dock flows. Less idling in the yard. A safer operation for everyone on site.
Performance truth
Every action timestamped. Dashboards for door utilization, detention minutes, handover SLAs and dispute evidence give a single source of truth for operational and commercial teams.
"We now provide more evidence than we’re officially required because it’s so easy. As a result, we have fewer disputes with customers or other stakeholders involved in the process."
Not a scheduler. An orchestration layer.
Most dock scheduling tools optimise calendars. Most YMS tools optimise yard asset visibility. TVM does something different: it orchestrates the full handover workflow, from readiness check to dock release, across every actor in a multi-party environment.

Frequently Asked Questions
We're here to provide clarity and assist with any queries you may have.
Standard dock schedulers focus on eliminating phone calls and emails. YMS tools focus on yard asset visibility. TVM orchestrates the full handover workflow, steering demand to real capacity, validating readiness before arrival, coordinating gate-to-dock movements, and generating objective performance data. It's designed for multi-party environments where coordination is the actual bottleneck.
TVM's core capability, capacity-driven scheduling, pre-arrival readiness, gate-to-dock execution, and performance reporting, translates directly to both on and off-airport logistics. The platform is the same. The configuration adapts to your facility.
Both. TVM deploys as a dedicated solution configured to your dock layout, operational constraints, and service model, whether you're running one facility or many.
TVM provides comprehensive reporting including turnaround times, peak patterns, utilisation rates, no-shows, dock occupancy, and SLA compliance. This gives you access to KPIs, including truck wait time on site, wait time at the dock door, loading time, etc. Reports and dashboards support SLA monitoring and commercial discussions, while behavioural analytics give visibility into user patterns and indicate potential process improvements.
In a cargo community setting, TVM adds a community-wide visibility layer — giving airports and hub operators a consolidated view of activity across all handlers, enabling optimal use of shared infrastructure and real estate without requiring additional capacity.
No. TVM integrates with your existing IT landscape. It connects via standard APIs with cargo and warehouse management systems, terminal management systems, payment platforms, and community systems. Hardware integrations for gate access, including ANPR and QR code readers, are also supported. Our approach is open by design: you keep your current systems and TVM adds the landside coordination layer on top.
It will depend on the complexity of your operations. Implementations using standard integrations are live within 8-12 weeks. The process follows a structured framework: operational setup discussion, system configuration and integrations, user training, onboarding, and ongoing usage monitoring. You'll need 1–2 superusers with operational authority and an IT manager involved during the integration phase. After go-live, the time commitment drops to roughly half a day per week. Timing can vary depending on the scope of integration with your existing cargo management systems.
