Industry Solution

Your Customers Control the Carriers. You Can Still Control the Data.

For food manufacturers managing customer-routed freight across 5, 15, or 25 facilities — ProDocks gives you pickup compliance visibility without changing who books the truck.

The Food Manufacturing Dock Problem

You produce to order. The customer routes the carrier. And when that carrier doesn't show up — or shows up five days late — your warehouse fills up, production backs up, and revenue delays. With no data to show who missed, and no system to prove it, you're left holding the bag.

The Problem

80% of volume is customer-routed freight — you have no carrier data

How ProDocks Fixes It

Enter outbound appointments yourself. Track ship date vs. actual pickup. Build the accountability record.

The Problem

Inventory sits when pickups slip, blocking production and delaying revenue

How ProDocks Fixes It

Timestamp every arrival. Know the gap between scheduled pickup and actual pickup — by carrier, by customer, by lane.

The Problem

20+ facilities post-acquisition, each running a different process

How ProDocks Fixes It

30-minute setup per site. No IT. Multi-facility dashboard from day one. Network-level visibility within weeks.

The Problem

OpenDock charges enterprise rates — 23 sites at enterprise pricing doesn't pencil

How ProDocks Fixes It

ProDocks is $25/month per facility. Unlimited users. The same carrier compliance data at a fraction of the cost.

How Food Manufacturers Use ProDocks

You're not waiting for carriers to book. You're entering the appointments — and using the data to prove who's performing and who isn't.

1
Product Ready
Production run completes. Your team enters an outbound appointment in ProDocks with the SAP ship date and assigned carrier.
2
Carrier Notified
ProDocks sends the carrier a booking confirmation with QR code. They know what's expected and when.
3
Driver Checks In
Driver scans the QR code on arrival. ProDocks timestamps check-in automatically. No clerk interaction required.
4
Data Captured
You now have: original ship date, actual pickup date, carrier, customer, lane, and dwell time — all reportable.

For the first time, you can show every site, every customer, and every carrier: what the requested ship date was, when the truck actually arrived, and how long the gap was. Not anecdotal. Timestamped.
