“The construction industry needs visibility within their supply chains to ensure materials arrive on-time, at the right location, and with the best utilization of logistics resources,” said Phil Ramsey, CEO at Command Alkon. “This is particularly important for inbound materials like concrete and aggregates which are always on a contractor’s critical path.”
