The Key Functionality Of The Dock Door Management System; 1) The Careful Traffic Management Of All Vehicles Into The Fm Logistics Campus Dock. Without This Booking Solution The Campus Runs The Risk Of A Complete Logistics Traffic Jam Due To The Following Reasons; A. Single Campus Point Of Entry/Exit For Deliveries (Including Sjh - St. James Hospital) B. This Fm Logistics Dock Is To Facilitate All Inbound And Outbound Movements (Catering, Labs, Pharmacy, Medical/Surgical, Household, Camhs, Linen, Waste, Etc.) C. The Design Of The Fm Logistics Dock Requires The Careful Management Of The Vehicle Types Into The Specific Space (Limit On Trailer Size, Due To Design Constraints). D. The Inbound Logistics Function Is A Transition Point Onto The Agv Application And Is Not Designed As A Decant / Storage / Quarantine Location. E. Chi As Part Of The National Strategy ‘One Voice For Health’, Are Working In Partnership With The Ndc/Nds To Have Consolidated Deliveries To The Nch. F.
