Innovation reduces truck driver’s stay time at distribution center by 40%

ID Logistics, a European multinational contractual logistics company, has developed a system that speeds up an important part of the logistics process, giving more autonomy to truck drivers in cargo delivery and collection at distribution centers. The initiative is already in operation, and plans are in place to expand to other regions of the country where the operator is present.

The tool, named Easy Check-in, created by ID Logistics Brazil, has improved communication in interactions with carriers, avoiding manual and repetitive processes, as well as queues to facilitate warehouse entry and exit documentation. The system has expedited this step by 40%.

At ID Logistics, innovation goes hand in hand with operational efficiency and the well-being of our employees. In this case, we are looking at drivers, essential in the logistics chain. With Easy Check-in, the process is digital and autonomous, with self-service kiosks, automated safety instructions, and real-time monitoring via informative screens and SMS,” says Bruno Giácomo, Continuous Improvement Manager.

In the traditional process, the driver needed to go to two service counters, one at the condominium’s entrance and one in the shipping department. For this, they lined up, waiting for the attendants’ availability.

Easy Check-in is a digitalization solution that connects to the cargo database, where the driver performs the entry process into the warehouse to carry out their unloading or collection. They enter the information at self-service kiosks, receive their entry confirmation, and safety instructions.

Then, you receive information about the status of the cargo through informative monitors, including SMS to your cell phones. All of this reduces the driver’s contact with the warehouse attendant, bringing more agility and productivity to the process.
