Next-gen cloud enabled technology transforms the supply chains of trading partners in the Heavy Building Materials ecosystem; from bulk materials suppliers, producers and logistics providers through to heavy-civil contractors, DOTs and project owners. By automating manual processes, companies streamline their inter-enterprise operations, which lowers costs and creates greater efficiencies. Enhanced supply chain visibility equips more informed decisions, and as the data from disparate systems is harmonized across the industry, insights gathered will be put to work to transform how companies in construction collaborate with one another to achieve superior outcomes.
