We core-sampled 29 of ~150 plants, The 29 audited sites span paper, packaging, pulp, and building-products plants, representative of Georgia-Pacific's 150-facility US manufacturing network.
Network size: Georgia-Pacific corporate locations page states 150+ facilities across ~30 US states (paper, packaging, pulp/tissue, building products). https://www.gp.com/about-us/locations/ (accessed 2026-06-19) (2026-06-19)
Public audit. Not affiliated with Georgia-Pacific. Data from satellite imagery + public records.
Click any site for its gate, docks, and drop yards. No badge, no NDA, just what a driver sees.
Your TMS runs the road. Your WMS runs the building. The yards are the tier between them, and they were never on the network.
Every truck gets re-keyed, re-queued, and re-found at each step. The lost time lives between the steps, which is why no single tool ever fixed it. The audit below is that gap, measured on your real yards.
A real audited site, played gate→dock→exit on the true yard geometry. Switch sites with the picker.
Truck queues at the gate. Guard checks paper BOL, runs the plate, types data into a screen, prints a gate pass.
Movement durations are honest floors set by yard geometry; the uplift lands on the wait fields (queue + dispatch + secondary checkpoints). “Today” timings reflect the radios-and-clipboards world; “With YardFlow” reflects the protocol acting end-to-end. We may be wrong about parts of this, your actual numbers will tell us where.
Read from satellite + Street View across all 29 facilities. At a comparable network, Primo Brands cut drop-and-hook turns from ~48 to ~24 min. Set your real volumes and margins in the calculator to put a number on it.
Three patterns held across the sites we sampled. None of them show up on a facility list. All of them change how the yard runs.
Brunswick Cellulose Mill is 704 acres of pulp and paper. Bigger than most cities' downtown.
24 of 29 audited sites are rail-served. Pulp and paper move on rail by default.
6,666 acres of total audited footprint across 29 sites. Building materials runs the largest land footprint in the dataset.
This audit is the evidence. The model is the math. Open the calculator seeded with Georgia-Pacific’s audited yards, set your real volumes and margins, and it sizes the opportunity to the dollar.
This deep-dive is the evidence behind the /for/georgia-pacific memo.
