Icon inefficiency
Inefficiency

Drivers and vehicles are valuable, productive resources that waste up to 95% of their time idling during normal operations.

Icon efficiency
Productivity

On-demand remote operations eliminate idle times. A teleoperator can seamlessly switch between vehicles to maximize productivity.

Icon scaling negative
High overheads

To handle the process of incoming goods, especially during peak times, you need backups. This can be a large overhead.

Icon scaling positive
Productivity

Remote operations can cover peak times by upscaling to multiple operators within minutes on demand. The result: guaranteed uptime at all times.

Icon ecological negative
Emissions

Yard processes are characterized by hectic scheduling and high-pollution diesel trucks.

Icon ecological positive
Sustainability

The deployment of next-generation electric yard trucks minimizes your carbon footprint and noise emissions dramatically while cutting down on fuel costs.
