Yield Management:

Yield Management is a strategic approach used in logistics, transportation, and supply chain management to maximize revenue and resource utilization by dynamically adjusting pricing, capacity, or allocation based on demand patterns, market conditions, and operational constraints. Originally applied in the airline and hotel industries, yield management is now widely used in freight transport, shipping, and warehousing to optimize vehicle space, container loads, storage capacity, and delivery schedules.
