CloudBatch Saves Costs Using Real-Time Inventory
A Blog by Henry Lee
Henry Lee started working in the ready-mix industry back in 1996. He began as a field service engineer, installing batching systems across the different continents, and then moved into sales. With his engineering background and years spent in the service department helping customers, Henry knows what customers in the ready-mix industry need and expect.
The Evolution of Technology
Over the past 25 years, I had the opportunity to visit ready-mix operations in over 45 different countries. I have seen technology evolve at a rapid speed, with some countries adopting faster than others. The same can be said for ready-mix producers - some have embraced technology faster than others for various reasons."The enhanced ability of CloudBatch to control the concrete batching process in real-time creates tremendous value and savings."

"Users can simply log in using any internet-connected device to monitor and adjust any load of concrete both easily and securely."
– Henry Lee, Sysdyne Technologies
Real-Time Inventory
Most of the batch control use interface technology designed over 20 years ago have had very minor improvements during this period."This technology has prevented real-time access to valuable information in the batching system, including manual material consumption and incoming material receipt. Sysdyne understood the problem and wanted to help the industry to overcome this problem, hence the creation of CloudBatch."
– Henry Lee, Sysdyne Technologies
Future:
The evolution of the traditional batching system has been stunted by limiting access to the valuable data that resides within the system. The future of batching demands opens API access to database tables, easier access via a cloud connection, and a powerful database to track performance."CloudBatch is revolutionizing the way we batch concrete. Soon, I can see complete process automation on incoming material."

ConcreteGO Cloud Dispatch and iStrada Paperless Ticketing.
Invoicing clients has never been easier, simply attach digital tickets to invoices and email customers directly for faster billing and payment cycles. No more entering data twice – it’s that simple!
How it Works:
Start by downloading the PDF ticket from iStrada and saving it to a local folder on the computer. Open ConcreteGO and Quicklink two-way accounting interface to select the tickets and import them into the accounting system. Then click the ‘attach file’ button in the accounting system and navigate the computer folder to find the paperless ticket by number and select the PDF files (tickets) to attach to the invoice. Once completed, simply review the invoice directly on the screen then choose to send one or multiple invoices with the attached tickets by email to your customers directly.
