If you’re already using UnDesked for visitor check-in, you’ve automated the lobby.
But check-in is just a trigger.
Every time someone selects a visitor type, that event can automatically launch tasks across your facility.
Delivery drivers are one example.
Example: Delivery Driver Check-In
When a driver selects “Driver / Delivery”, UnDesked doesn’t just print a badge.
It can automatically:
- Assign dock priority based on delivery type
- Start a dwell-time timer for KPI tracking
- Present yard and dock safety rules
- Log truck, trailer, carrier, and driver details
- Restrict access to yard/dock zones only
- Attach the visit to compliance and traceability records
One selection.
Multiple automated workflows.
Watch the Delivery Workflow in Action
See how a single driver check-in can trigger dock assignments, safety acknowledgments, dwell tracking, and digital logging automatically.
Why This Matters
Most facilities still treat delivery check-in as paperwork.
- Radio calls.
- Whiteboards.
- Verbal safety instructions.
- Manual dwell tracking.
- Incomplete logs.
It works — until it doesn’t.
Without automation, you can’t reliably measure:
- Dock congestion
- Carrier performance
- Yard safety compliance
- Time-on-site exposure
- Traceability readiness
Visitor Management already captures the arrival event.
The question is: are you using that event to automate anything?
Who Benefits
Shipping & Receiving
- Real dwell-time data.
- Better dock utilization.
Plant Leadership
- Reduced congestion.
- Clear operational visibility.
Safety / EHS
- Documented yard rules.
- Timestamped acknowledgments.
Procurement
- Carrier performance tracking.
Compliance
- Delivery events tied to traceability logs.
All triggered by the same check-in you’re already using.
This Is Expansion, Not Replacement
You don’t need new hardware.
You don’t need another system.
You don’t need additional logins.
If you’re already running Visitor Management, these workflows can be layered on immediately.
Delivery drivers are just one use case.
Contractors, vendors, applicants, inspectors, and customers can all trigger their own automated workflows the moment they check in.
