The Complete Container Depot Management Platform
From the moment a container enters your depot to the second it leaves, DepotLite manages every step with AI-powered intelligence, automated workflows, and enterprise-grade reliability.
The 8-Stage Container Journey
Every container follows a structured pipeline through your depot. Each stage captures critical data, triggers workflows, and maintains a complete audit trail.
Everything Your Depot Needs
A comprehensive suite of modules that covers every operational need — from container tracking and damage surveys to invoicing and analytics.
Container Management
Track every container across its entire lifecycle. Record container details, ownership, type, size, grade, and complete movement history from the moment it enters your depot.
Survey & Inspection
Conduct detailed damage surveys with photographic evidence. Grade containers, identify damage components with CEDEX codes, and capture measurements for accurate estimation.
Estimation & Costing
Create line-item repair estimations with component codes, repair methods, material costs, and labor hours. Rates auto-apply from liner agreements for instant, accurate costing.
Approval Workflows
Shipping lines review and approve estimations in-app with full visibility into every line item. Support for full approval, rejection, and partial approval of individual items.
Repair Tracking
Track repair progress from authorization through completion. Monitor materials consumed, labor hours, and compare actual costs against approved estimates.
Pre-Gate-Out Booking
Manage gate-out bookings with validation against repair completion, outstanding invoices, and documentation requirements. Ensure containers only leave when fully processed.
Invoicing & Billing
GST-compliant invoicing with automatic charge calculations for handling, repair, storage, and survey. Sync with Zoho Books. Configurable templates with depot branding.
Reporting & Analytics
Six automated report types with smart scheduling. DMR, Stock, LOLO, Status, Estimation, and All-in-One reports. Excel and PDF output with email delivery.
Beyond Core Operations
DepotLite extends beyond container management with AI intelligence, EDI automation, and workflow orchestration.
