Configurable Dock and Yard Management for Canadian Manufacturers (CA)
From automotive to consumer goods, Canadian manufactures trust C3 to keep raw material flowing in, finished products moving out, and costly downtime off the schedule.
What’s Slowing You Down?
If you manage a manufacturing plant or distribution center, you know the daily challenges:
Inbound deliveries arriving late and disrupting production planning
Finished goods trailers waiting excessively in the yard
Inconsistent dock scheduling between plants and suppliers
Manual communication methods consuming valuable time and resources
A Platform Built for the Canadian Manufacturing Supply Chain
C3 Solutions doesn’t offer a one-size-fits-all system. Our software is fully configurable to manufacturing operations, helping you stay lean, agile, and compliant with Canadian standards while maximizing plant efficiency.
C3 Reservations®
Dock Scheduling That Keeps Your Production Flowing
Take control of inbound and outbound dock scheduling with automation that prevents costly production interruptions. Manufacturers face complex supplier networks, unpredictable arrival times, and strict loading windows.
C3 Reservations helps you manage it all with smart, rules-based scheduling.
Dock Scheduling
Key Features & Benefits
Supplier Self-Booking Portal
Suppliers and carriers can self-book delivery slots based on your plant’s schedule and priorities, no calls or emails needed.
Material-Type Prioritization
Ensure critical raw materials always have priority slots while low-impact shipments are automatically scheduled later.
Centralized Multi-Site View
Manage dock operations across multiple plants or warehouses from one dashboard.
C3 Yard®
Complete Visibility Across Your Production Sites
From the moment a trailer arrives to when it leaves, you’ll know where it is, what it’s carrying, and how it affects your production schedule.
Without real-time visibility, idle trailers can block critical space, delay outbound goods, and increase demurrage costs.
Yard Management
Key Features & Benefits
Real-Time Yard Map
Instantly see every trailer, its location, contents, and dwell time, whether it’s inbound materials or finished goods.
Automated Task Assignment for Shunters
Assign moves automatically based on trailer type, urgency, and destination to keep production flowing without manual dispatching.
Production-Linked Alerts
Set alerts when critical raw materials are delayed or ready-to-ship trailers have been sitting too long.
