Command Alkon announces new app to support bulk material suppliers

Command Alkon has introduced Ruckit Field, a new mobile experience to support bulk material suppliers, haulers, and buyers in lowering costs and optimising truck usage. This new mobile experience for the Ruckit trucking management solution is now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
The new Ruckit Field app brings increased visibility to the jobsite. Superintendents and foremen can view all orders, trucks, and tickets in one place. This new visibility enables the user to see how much material is loaded, when a truck in on the road, and when a load has reached the jobsite. Crews will no longer have to wonder or keep tally marks on the deliveries as they arrive.
“Ruckit Field allows you to manage your bulk material transportation from the jobsite,” said Tarun Nimmagadda, Vice President at Command Alkon. “Ruckit Field will work seamlessly with the CONNEX Platform to deliver optimised workflows back to your plants and scale houses.”
The Ruckit Field app enables the user to approve hauler time against the job, view critical cycle information, and order trucks for current or future orders. This information is centralised in Ruckit, where transportation managers can ensure proper and timely payment to internal fleet and hired haulers.
Should the location of the jobsite change, the solution enables the user to quickly update the job delivery information and geofence so that key performance stats stay relevant and impactful.
“The Ruckit Field app enables field personnel to be better connected to transportation managers, increasing efficiency from the moment the material is ticketed to the moment materials haulers are paid,” said Diego Larrea-Puemape, General Manager – CONNEX. “Now that Ruckit is powered by the CONNEX platform, the operational, transactional, and cost data insights delivered to the user unlock ample amounts of hidden opportunity to analyse and improve business operations and enhance decision-making.”
Ruckit offerings for Bulk Transportation management are currently available. Bundled options with CONNEX Trucking can also ensure DOT compliance on HMA projects.
