For years, supply chain innovation has been defined by a race toward automation. Companies invested heavily in robotics, sensors, AI tools, autonomous equipment, and warehouse modernization initiatives, all with the promise of faster operations and greater efficiency.

Joby Aviation launched a week-long flight campaign, running real, point-to-point electric air taxi routes between JFK and Manhattan. What used to take over an hour on the ground now takes under 10 minutes in the air.

What is AI yard management? AI yard management uses real-time data, computer vision, and agentic workflows to automate and optimize yard operations, reducing gate delays, improving trailer visibility, and coordinating movements from gate to dock without manual intervention.

Every operator knows the pattern: a truck arrives, maybe Steve figures out why it’s there and radios a colleague across the yard, the driver checks-in (maybe after waiting for more than an hour), then they’re assigned a dock, load or unload, and then leave.

Terminal Industries is bringing Missions™ to Modex 2026 — a new execution layer within its Yard Operating System™ that turns every yard workflow into a structured, real-time operational process.

Terminal Industries is launching Missions™ — a new capability within its Yard Operating System™ that transforms how yard operations are planned, executed, and measured. Missions™ introduces a fundamentally different way to run the yard: not as a collection of disconnected events, but as a system of structured, real-time workflows that govern how work actually gets done. Because despite years of investment in visibility tools, integrations, and tracking systems, the yard remains one of the least controlled environments in the supply chain.

A truck carrying over 410,000 limited-edition Formula 1 KitKat bars didn’t just get stolen, it was intercepted. On a highway outside Turin, thieves posing as law enforcement stopped the truck, removed the driver, and disappeared with 12 tons of highly specific, time-sensitive cargo. This wasn’t random or opportunistic. It was informed, coordinated, and executed with precision.

The Cost Everyone Accepts Fuel is getting more expensive. But here’s the part no one questions: How much of that fuel is actually being used productively? Because inside the supply chain, there’s a massive blind spot: Truck drivers lose 30–40% of their usable driving time sitting idle in yards.

Yards are often managed through a patchwork of radio calls, spreadsheets, manual scans, and tribal knowledge. A location may be “updated,” but only after the move. A status may be “confirmed,” but only by someone who had time to type. Within a few hours, the system of record quietly stops matching reality. Teams notice. Trust breaks. And the yard reverts to what it has always been: people chasing certainty by driving around.

Yards are where small delays turn into big, expensive problems. Not because people are bad at their jobs. But because the yard is messy by nature. It sits between transportation and the warehouse and security and sometimes customers. If you do not have tight control there, everything gets fuzzy fast.
