Pushing the Boundaries of Automation Beyond Robotics

Automation transcends mere robotics by integrating into every layer of the supply chain, from inventory control to customer engagement. This widespread application allows Logistics Service Providers to harness data-driven insights and predictive analytics, empowering them to make swift, informed decisions that adapt to market trends and customer demands. The result is a supply chain that is not only efficient but also responsive and intelligent, poised to meet future challenges with innovative solutions.

Penske Automates Supply Chain Operations With Blue Yonder Solutions for Unmatched Efficiency

Penske Logistics, a leading provider of supply chain and logistics solutions, successfully implemented Blue Yonder’s Yard Management Solution to significantly enhance yard visibility and operational efficiency. By leveraging Blue Yonder’s Yard Management Solution, which uses advanced camera/computer vision technology and machine learning, Penske could automatically check-in and identify trailers, track their locations, and monitor trailers within the yard. This allowed Penske to streamline their gate check processes, providing precise time-stamp details that assist with mitigating detention fees and improving overall yard throughout.




The integration of Blue Yonder’s Yard Management solution with Penske’s existing Warehouse Management System automated and centralized numerous tasks, enabling labor resources to be redirected to more productive activities. This collaboration has not only reduced operational costs but also enhanced service quality for Penske’s customers. With the success of the initial implementation at one site, Penske plans to expand this solution to additional locations in 2024, further solidifying their commitment to operational excellence and customer satisfaction through innovative technology.

At Blue Yonder, we continue to lead in logistics automation with our comprehensive suite of solutions that not only simplifies operations but also drives substantial business improvements, such as cost reduction and better resource efficiency. These advancements are supported by AI-enhanced management, ensuring LSPs like Penske are well- equipped for current needs and future challenges.
