The new Birdseye Facility Supervisor Portal (BFS) redefines how logistics teams manage yard visibility, security, and operations. Integrated with Birdseye’s Intelligent Gate Management System™ (iGMS™), the BFS Portal gives transportation and warehousing leaders full control of gate transactions, appointments, and real-time inventory tracking; all from a secure, centralized dashboard.
For years, yard managers and logistics coordinators have faced the same challenges: delayed data, manual gate logs, endless back-and-forth with dispatchers, and blind spots that slow operations.
With the new Birdseye Facility Supervisor Portal (BFS), those days are over.
Birdseye, the North American leader in AI-driven Remote Facility Supervision, has introduced a secure, real-time platform that gives logistics teams instant visibility into every gate transaction, appointment, and yard movement from one intuitive dashboard.
The BFS Portal integrates directly with Birdseye’s Intelligent Gate Management System™ (iGMS™), empowering facility managers to make faster decisions, improve compliance, and cut gate processing times by over 50%.
Solving the Yard Visibility Problem
Every minute a truck waits at the gate costs money and visibility gaps at key access points can disrupt entire supply chains. According to Transport Topics, inefficiencies at yard gates and staging areas contribute to significant time loss and higher detention costs across the industry.
The BFS Portal eliminates these inefficiencies by centralizing all gate and yard operations in one secure interface, accessible from any device, anywhere.
Key capabilities include:
- Real-time access to gate transaction and driver credential data
- Self-serve appointment and authorization management
- Automated yard inventory tracking based on live vehicle movement
- Scheduled reports and dashboards for ongoing operational visibility
- Role-based access and SSO for enterprise-grade data protection
Clean, structured data automatically integrates with your TMS, YMS, or WMS, so there’s no re-entry, no guesswork, and no costly manual errors.
Pairing the BFS Portal with Birdseye’s Yard Supervision solution gives teams 360° oversight, from dock-to-gate movement to real-time incident response, helping logistics leaders operate safer and smarter.
Security Built In, Not Bolted On
Unlike traditional access systems where security is layered on after the fact, the BFS Portal was built with protection at its core.
Each user’s access is secured through multi-factor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO), and role-based permissions, ensuring that only authorized personnel can view or modify sensitive yard data.
“Security comes from operational discipline,” says Milan Luketic, CTO of Birdseye. “We built the portal to align with our customers’ protocols in real time while protecting their data every step of the way.”
The BFS Portal also works in tandem with Birdseye’s Perimeter Monitoring technology, creating a connected security ecosystem that ensures every access point, boundary, and high-value area is monitored 24/7.
Combining AI Accuracy with Human Oversight
Behind every Birdseye innovation is the Maximum Telepresence Approach™ a balance of AI-driven precision and trained human judgment.
The BFS Portal delivers accurate, real-time data directly from Birdseye’s network of cameras and smart sensors.
- AI automatically reads and records truck, trailer, and BOL data with 99.99% accuracy.
- Birdseye’s trained remote supervisors intervene when irregular or suspicious access attempts occur.
This hybrid model ensures operational speed and critical judgment, something purely automated systems can’t achieve.
According to FreightWaves, the integration of AI with human oversight is now the gold standard for yard management efficiency and safety. Birdseye’s BFS Portal puts that standard into practice.
Why It Matters for Logistics Leaders
For supply chain and yard managers, the BFS Portal offers:
- Lower security costs: Replace high-cost guard-based systems with automated, data-driven control.
- Faster throughput: Eliminate gate bottlenecks and reduce detention time.
- Enhanced compliance: Enforce SOPs and safety standards with automated accuracy.
- Revenue opportunities: Track live trailer counts and confidently rent out excess space.
- Reduced cargo theft risk: Seamless visibility combined with proactive deterrence, a growing necessity as CargoNet reports a 68% surge in theft across North America.
See the Portal in Action
Whether you manage one facility or a multi-site network, the Birdseye Facility Supervisor Portal gives you total operational visibility and control, from gate to perimeter.
