Does your facility is capable for operation with current docks?

No, here is solution – calculate accurate no of docks

(Peak trucks per day) X (Average dock time per truck) X (Safety Factor) / (Number of hours in workday) = No. of doors
*Safety factor can range from 1.5 to 2 depending on the variability of truck arrivals and how well trucks adhere to a schedule

Where average dock time per truck calculate -

1. Date
2. Time truck arrived (note if the truck was delayed due to unavailability of dock door or staging space)
3. Shipment or receipt
4. Load type (LTL, TL, palletized vs. floor load, parcel)
5. Time truck load/unload began
6. Time load/unload was complete
7. Number of pallets/cases that were handled
8. Time truck left
9. Elapsed time
