A method for autonomous vehicles management comprises: sending a route plan comprising navigation segments responsive to a request received by one of a plurality of autonomous vehicles in an operating environment including one or more devices; categorizing the route plan into a first path segment including one or more nodes inside a device zone and a second path segment including one or more nodes outside the device zone; and determining a path segment type from categorized path segments for each node in the navigation segment, wherein a first node from the first path segment is assigned a first precondition; and annotating the first node with a second precondition that is based on determination of a destination node from the one or more nodes and that includes performing a hard lock action of the first device for the autonomous vehicle traversing the first path segment to the destination node.
