If you are going on holiday, make it a real break

After the December bank holiday, we are on the doorstep of one of the most important holiday periods of the year. Sometimes, because of our sector or the department we work in, things come up that have to be dealt with fairly urgently and that, in any case, cannot wait until we get back. That is why choosing tools designed to be learned quickly, and that can also be reached from any device with an internet connection, is key to guaranteeing the best possible operation.

Slot’s Eyes is the yard management system designed to keep operations in our warehouses under control at all times. Beyond its many features and our commitment to the most reliable technology on the market, we have also designed the platform with holiday periods in mind, and even with checking in from outside the office.

Assigning new logistics operators

Like any organised professional, we try to leave our tasks in order before the holidays start. The transport sector, however, tends never to rest, and so part of what we do before going away is handing over day-to-day tasks to the colleague acting as our back-up.

To make handing over warehouse operations simple, at Slot’s Eyes we developed a very intuitive panel for assigning roles and creating users. In the same general menu we have the space to make all the staffing changes needed, as many times as you see fit. Quick to learn

The platform has been developed with the different levels of technical skill of its users in mind. We have also been very aware that it may be consulted from many kinds of device. After analysing every possible scenario, we designed a platform that works very intuitively and that also has very accessible instructions. As a result, there is no need for extensive training for the colleagues covering for us during the holidays.

Accessible from any device with an internet connection

More and more people work remotely or are away from the site for work reasons. Access to the usual working tools therefore has to be guaranteed. To get into Slot’s Eyes you only need your username and password, from any device with an internet connection.

And without being there, you know everything is working

Because our tool holds information about dock operations updated in real time, whenever something worries us or an urgent call comes in, we can check the platform confident that we are seeing the real situation. At a glance, the intuitive colour code shows us whether operations are going as planned or whether, on the contrary, we need to put alternative plans into action.

Operations planned in advance

Our software was created precisely to manage the operations taking place in the warehouse more effectively. As a result, carriers usually organise their operations well in advance. That is why much of what will happen in the warehouse while we are enjoying our holidays will already be planned. We will have been able to change bookings according to the expected activity and we will have the contingency plan considered appropriate ready in case, despite everything, some corrective action is needed.

And so switching off on holiday is fully guaranteed. Happy holidays,
