  • Patent number: 11816615
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable storage media for managing project tasks using content items. A user can create tasks within a content item. The tasks can be assigned to users and/or be assigned due dates. The content item can be shared with other users such that updates to the content item (e.g., updates to the tasks) can cause sending notifications to users associated with the content item. When a task in the content item is updated, all members of the project can be notified of the updated status of the task. A task list for a project can be created that aggregates tasks from multiple content items associated with the project. Tasks can be organized in the task list according to the content item the task was created in. Updates to tasks in the task list can cause corresponding updates to the tasks in the content items.

  • Patent number: 11605041
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to a decision model to open and close enterprise facilities. A computing platform may receive one or more attributes associated with an operation of an enterprise facility. Subsequently, the computing platform may identify, based on the one or more attributes, a business operation rule for the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may determine, based on the one or more attributes and the business operation rule, an operational parameter for the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may compare the operational parameter to a threshold parameter, where the threshold parameter may be indicative of whether to keep the enterprise facility open for business. Then, the computing platform may, upon a determination that the operational parameter fails to exceed the threshold parameter, determine to temporarily close the enterprise facility. Then, the computing platform may redistribute user traffic to one or more open customer resource facilities.

  • Patent number: 11544643
    Abstract: An intermodal facility management system for facilitating delivery, pickup, facility access, and cargo management is presented. The system can receive data from clients within proximity of one or more wireless beacons. The system can capture data from clients that ingress or egress into or out of a facility, respectively, and validate received data with the captured data. The system can enable cargo transfer optimization by forecasting client arrival times to particular destination locations, and the forecasting can account for access point delays, such as can be due to an authentication process. The system can provide a measure of redundancy in ensuring that particular cargo is being sent to proper locations, and the system can further prompt facility personnel to ensure that cargo is accessible and ready for dispatch upon arrival of any given client.
