Projet Scope

This petrolian factory located in France needed a new logistics application in order to manage goods deliveries.
This application manages all truck transportations (expedition/reception) as well as the whole transaction cycle from ERP (SAP) to industrial onsite equipment (access control and weighing bridges).

Main functionalities:

Truck Access Control (barrier with badge reader)
Management of reception desk
Management of guard desk
Management of loading controller
Automatic and Manual truck calling system based on availability in loading areas
Weighing Bridge Interface
‘On-Line’ bidirectional communication with SAP
Alarm Administration
Reporting & Statistics

This application manages the following devices:

3 entries (2 with weighing bridges)
2 internal weighing bridges
2 displays for truck calling
about 20 concurrent users (controllers, guards, counters, back office, administrator, ...)

This is the main screen of the application allowing a multi criteria search of all truck transactions.

This picture shows the room where drivers register and wait for autorization to access the site. Their badge number is automatically displayed when a loading area becomes free.
An entrance controller is in charge of physical check of the truck based on a check list.
