ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) brings dynamism to your SLOT system. SLOT helps you to plan capacities and time windows. ETA displays the estimated time of arrival of the truck in the SLOT time slot booking. The ETA calculation is based on the current position of the truck and the distance to the destination and takes into account the current traffic situation and the truck type. This gives you a very accurate ETA. ETA can be used either on the driver’s smartphone with the Cargoclix ETA App, or through the direct connection to the telematics of the trucks.
If the employees at the warehouse know the estimated time of arrival of the truck in advance, you can also adjust your work accordingly. This means that trucks that have already arrived can be brought forward if a truck is delayed. Idle times are avoided and even delayed trucks can ideally be loaded or unloaded without long waiting times.
ETA (Estimated Time of Arrival) shows you the currently probable arrival time of the truck, depending on the current traffic situation and the type of truck. Deviations from the previously planned time window are displayed directly in SLOT.
ETA allows truck drivers to use the ETA App, to which the time windows booked in SLOT are transferred via push. Alternatively, ETA can also be used directly via a connection to the truck’s telematics system.
ETA is permanently integrated into the time window management SLOT and can be displayed directly in every booked time window. In this way, the site operator can adjust the planning at short notice if the truck is delayed, so that downtimes are minimized.
Normally you have to invest in advance to reduce costs. Not so with ETA. The ETA app can be downloaded free of charge from Playstore or App Store. Only 0.5 euros per time window will be charged for ETA. With telematics connection 1 Euro.
ETA supports site operators in further smoothing their processes at the ramp and helps truck drivers and transport companies to reduce waiting times by automatically reporting the arrival time.
Like SLOT, you can also use ETA at your locations – worldwide. Standardize your processes and integrate the estimated time of arrival of the trucks into your process flows.
We have developed ETA in cooperation with the PTV GROUP and companies from industry and logistics and will continue to adapt the solution to your specific requirements so that you can map your processes in the best possible way. Our experience of more than 25 years will help us and you.
Like SLOT, ETA is supported by your permanent contact at Cargoclix, who is always available to answer your questions.
