The need
The plant's receiving dock opened in set time windows, and a late vehicle had to wait for the next one. The number of pallets also changed with every order.
What we did
We fixed shipping days and dock slots from the start. Pallet counts were confirmed the day before so the right vehicle could be chosen, and loading time was planned backwards from the dock slot and the driving time.

Outcome
Trips arrive in their dock slots and the plant keeps working to the same rhythm.
