3PL boosts yard management
Logistik Schmitt has deployed the cloud-native Infios Yard solution at its Rastatt site.

THE LOGISTICS company supports industrial customers, particularly within the automotive sector, through services such as production supply, sequencing, warehousing and distribution. Across a network of sites, Logistik Schmitt enables synchronised material flows to assembly lines, ensuring reliability and efficiency in time-critical production settings.
At the Rastatt site, Infios is helping Logistik Schmitt optimise yard operations on the premises of a car manufacturer. The YMS provides real-time visibility and control over incoming and outgoing trailer and swap body movements, improves slot allocation, reduces wait times, ensures process stability and coordinates traffic between staging areas, loading docks and local suppliers. A key highlight is the tailored self-service functionality for dock management, which enables Schmitt to manage gate processes efficiently and independently, including by external service providers. Supporting approximately 450 daily trailer and swap body movements across 150 gates, the solution enables more efficient and transparent yard execution.
The Rastatt deployment builds on Logistik Schmitt’s broader experience with Infios solutions across other locations. At multiple sites, Logistik Schmitt relies on Infios Warehouse Management (WM) to support production-synchronous automotive logistics, managing complex processes for the supply of engines, transmissions and axles. Infios WM provides the visibility and control needed to coordinate just-in-time (JIT) and just-in-sequence (JIS) deliveries, optimise replenishment and sequencing processes and synchronise operations across multiple locations, suppliers and manufacturing partners.
