SP Depot controls container stock, yard movements, repairs and bookings. Invoicing closes with operations, not at month-end.
Everyday challenges
Knowing how many containers are in the yard, from which shipping line and in what condition, changes every hour.
From gate-in to the shipping line’s approval, emails, photos and calls pile up. Many get lost along the way.
Two hauliers at the gate for the same container — because the booking was sitting in a colleague’s inbox.
Reconstructing a month’s movements, storage and M&R costs takes days. And the discrepancies are expensive.
Capabilities
Type, size, shipping line, owner, condition and position — in real time.
Yard maps with blocks, rows, tiers and crane movements.
Entries and exits with driver, plate, inspection and seal on each side.
Storage days calculated to the second, per-line tariffs and invoices at close-out.
Automated stock, movement and repair reports.
Damage reports, incidents and non-conformities with photo evidence and traceability.
Repairs (M&R)
Every repair lives in a single flow: inspection with photos, estimate to the shipping line, approval, workshop repair and release. The shipping line sees exactly what you see, at the same time.

Depot
Automated gate
OCR cameras read the plate, container number and seal as soon as the truck enters the arch. SP Depot cross-checks the data against the booking, matches it with stock and decides: barrier up, barrier down, or alert the operator.
OCR reading
Plate, container number, seal code and visible damage — captured with no manual input.
Automatic validation
The captured data is cross-checked against the booking and expected stock. Discrepancies are flagged on the fly.
Automatic barrier
If everything checks out, the barrier rises on its own. If something doesn’t match, the operator gets an alert with the reason.
EIR generated automatically
The entry or exit report is assembled from the photos, the readings and the signature — no manual typing.
On-the-ground companion
For terminal operations
The yard app: operators log inspections, movements and repairs straight from the yard floor. SP Depot updates in real time.
