Consistency is the Contract
One protocol across every client's yards.
A 3PL is judged on what it moves and what it can prove. YardFlow gives you one operating layer across all the yards you run, so performance is consistent and the data is yours to show.

Real networks, already mapped
We have audited 3pl & logistics yards from orbit.
Every template on this page runs against a real audited footprint. Public satellite imagery, modeled geofences, a 22-field classification per site. Open any network to walk the map.
The problem
Every client yard is capacity
Every client yard you run a different way is capacity left on the table and an SLA at risk.
- The 3PLs that win standardize the yards across every site, hit turn-time commitments site after site, and turn yard data into proof at renewal.
Root causes
Where the capacity leaks
The friction points between a truck at your gate and product out the door.
Leak 01
Site-by-Site Variance
Each yard runs its own way, so performance is unpredictable across the book.
Leak 02
SLA Exposure
Detention and dwell misses cost penalties and renewals.
Leak 03
Thin Proof
Without standardized data, performance is a story, not a number.
Leak 04
Onboarding Drag
Every new site starts from scratch instead of from a playbook.
The protocol
What to Standardize First
One protocol across every site you run, so performance and proof are consistent.
Execution Standards
- Driver check-in and spot assignment at every client yard.
- Dwell and detention clocks on every load, per client.
- Digital BOL capture, no paper across any site.
Data Standards
- Per-client performance reporting from one system.
- A repeatable onboarding playbook for new sites.
- One network view across the whole book of business.
Standards compound across the network / the second site is faster than the first
The system
The YardFlow Solution
Under all five: machine vision reads the truck at the gate (flowGATE), a live twin maps the yard (flowTWIN), and an agent dispatches the next move (flowAI).
Role 01flowDRIVER
The driver checks in from the cab.
No app to download, no guard shack, no clipboard. The driver pulls up, checks in from their phone, and gets routed straight to the door.
Trucks get in without waiting in line.
- Phone or kiosk check-in, nothing to download
- The gate reads the truck and chassis on arrival
- Routed to the assigned door in one message
- SCANPlate ABC-1182
- VERIFIEDChassis 53291
- ROUTEDDoor D7
no app · no guard · 0:42 at gate
Role 02flowTWIN
The spotter moves the trailer. The yard maps itself.
A cab camera builds a live map of the whole yard from the moves the spotter already makes. No beacons, no new hardware, no manual counts.
The yard always knows where every trailer is.
- A live yard map built passively from real moves
- Every trailer located without a walk of the lot
- No beacons and no new hardware to install
Role 03flowYMS
Every dock's live state on one screen.
The coordinator assigns the right door and watches every dock at once. The door is staged before the truck parks.
The dock is ready before the truck parks.
- Every door's live state on one screen
- The right door assigned the moment a truck checks in
- Exceptions surface first, before they breach

Role 04flowBOL
The paperwork signs itself.
The BOL is captured and signed in the same flow, timestamped, with a chain of custody that holds up. Paperless from the gate to the dock.
Signed, timestamped, and it holds up.
- BOL captured and signed inside the driver flow
- A timestamped chain of custody, fully paperless
- Every move tied to who, what, and when

Proof
Proof, Not Promises
A 3PL already operates a live Primo YardFlow yard in Breinigsville, PA.
We are not asking for a pilot. We are asking for a conversation.
A 30-minute call, direct with Casey. We map your 3pl & logistics yards to the archetypes behind these numbers, then the path is audit, one pilot site, network rollout. If it fits, we talk pilot. If not, you keep the model.
None of these times work? Email me at casey@freightroll.com or call or text me at 410-236-7434, and we’ll find one.
