Drive Revenue with Precise, Prompt Delivery Data Every Time

The revolutionary iStrada Sensor automates ready-mix truck status updates to reduce delays, improve accuracy, and streamline concrete operations. The new equipment integrates seamlessly with our iStrada software to give you total moment-to-moment visibility into the delivery status of every truck in your fleet. It eliminates the need for manual updates by busy drivers and minimizes human error. 

Why iStrada Sensor? 

 

The iStrada Sensor has been developed by Sysdyne Technologies to seamlessly integrate with our industry-leading iStrada paperless ticketing platform, the only end-to-end solution built just for ready-mix concrete operations. The hardware and software work together to: 

  • Accurately capture delivery cycle times and performance insights.
  • Improve driver turnaround times and monitor customer and driver behavior.
  • Eliminate the need for drivers to manually update the pouring and
    washing statuses.
  • Detect mixer drum speed, rotation direction, and rotations per minute.
  • Track KPIs and profitability per truck, driver, and customer.
  • Support driver incentive programs that promote best practices and higher overall efficiency.
  • Monitor mix quality by accurately and automatically incorporating updates entered into iStrada from any location.
  • Provide quick return on investment (ROI).

“When we went live [with Sysdyne] up in our northern region with our drivers and batchmen, word spread from those folks and people got excited. I would get phone calls and emails of 'Hey when are we getting this, when's it coming?'”

FAQs

How does the iStrada Sensor automate ready-mix truck status updates?

The iStrada Sensor eliminates the need for drivers to interrupt their work by detecting various ready-mix truck status changes and activities such as loading, pouring, washing, and returning. It uses what it learns to update the system automatically and in real time. No manual input or driver interaction required! 

What additional data does the iStrada Sensor capture?

The smart device also monitors mixer drum speed, rotation direction, and RPM, offering valuable insights to maintain optimal mix consistency and quality. 

How is the iStrada Sensor installed and powered?

The sensor hardware is easy to install. It is powered by the truck's battery and connects to the driver's tablet via Bluetooth for real-time ready-mix truck status data transmission. 

Does the iStrada Sensor integrate with Sysdyne products beyond iStrada concrete delivery management software?

Of course! While Sysdyne’s products integrate with your existing software, they work best when given the opportunity to work together. 

When incorporated into ConcreteGO, sensor data optimizes truck spacing using the platform’s Customer Behavior Optimization (CBO) capability. The insights you gain will help you improve scheduling and truck spacing, so you get more loads delivered on average every week, month, and quarter. 

The iStrada Sensor can also help contribute data to the Sysdyne•BI Revenue and Cost, Order Accuracy, and Delivery time reports, allowing you to cross reference customers, track performance more accurately and generate revenue by quickly identifying opportunities. 

What kind of ROI can I expect when I implement iStrada Sensor?

Operating a ready-mix truck fleet is expensive, averaging $2 per truck, per minute. The investment in iStrada Sensor, on the other hand, can be as low as 42¢ per load. If you’re able to recover an average of three minutes per truck per day – and we are confident you will be! – your new sensors will pay for themselves. Anything more than those first few minutes will lift your bottom line with pure profit.
