General Super Mike wants to "use [Voyage Control] on projects in the portfolio across the board" because he can do things like limit deliveries before 7:30AM, so trash collection can happen without interruptions.
He's able to go onto the platform and deny any deliveries before 7:30, so they can run garbage out and keep the curtain wall overhead progress moving smoothly.
Another reason he loves Voyage Control is the weekly calendar display, which he displays on site in between the North and South Gates. The Dock Master has the only remote and is able to maintain the traffic flow as scheduled, while also providing a real-time view for his team.
They use a 15-minute grace period, but after that, the dock master will send you packing, so other deliveries can get in and unload during their pre-approved time slot. Most importantly, Mike and his team like Voyage Control for the fact that "it's easy, because I don't have to drop everything to schedule a delivery."
