As the need for visibility and dynamic operational transparency continues to be a top priority, C3 Solutions – the industry leader in customizable Dock and Yard Management solutions – has reached a company milestone of surpassing 1200 active sites and over 160,000 active software users.

The continued strain on the global supply chain has put many organizations in panic mode. New and long time customers have relied on C3 ability to automate their dock scheduling process, allowing distribution center operators to optimize inbound and outbound traffic, improving dock productivity and door turnaround, expanding visibility, eliminating site congestion and automating the appointment booking process with suppliers and carriers via an online portal.

For those where a fully automated yard management system was necessary, C3’s platform provides visibility on both yard assets and shipments, increasing gate throughput, improving the productivity of yard drivers and dock workers, reducing dock congestion and optimizing door utilization, and reduces detention costs.

Also, through C3’s extended mobile capabilities, integrating paperless and ‘touch-free’ business processes has never been easier. The issue of health and safety of employees has noticeably become a top priority to many of C3’s clients.
