Description

It is essential to recognize that the SmartYard system was developed by experienced professionals who have a proven track record in the industry. These experts have previously built systems for major corporations such as Wal-Mart, Yellow Freight, Emory, and Foot Locker, among others. As with any software crafted by professionals, SmartYard undergoes continuous improvements to enhance its functionality. While it is designed to fulfill 90-95% of the operational needs of a specific location, there will likely be opportunities for customization to meet any unique requirements you may have. This application is built on a Java foundation, which ensures its independence from both database and hardware platforms while also being compatible with the Internet. Furthermore, it has received certification through IBM’s NetFinity program on PC servers and I-series hardware (AS400). The system currently operates using an SQL Server database, providing a robust framework for its extensive reporting capabilities. Additionally, it excels in tracking various elements such as events, equipment, dock statuses, and personnel, making it a versatile tool for managing operations effectively.
