Born Digital: The New Workforce in Load Carrier Management
Old and familiar practices have been turned on their head by the shift to data-driven management of load carriers. With the rise of new technologies, the digital workforce uses tools and processes based on real-time information and automated decision-making.
On-Demand-Webinar
Dynamic Pricing: An Option For Cement Logistics?
Dynamic pricing is common practice in many industries. Cement producers, however, still rely on static pricing models with long-term contracts between vendors and buyers. Should producers revisit their static pricing models and switch to dynamic models?

Workforce Management: Are We Using The Right Tools?
Algorithms are a major efficiency driver for the logistics assets of building materials producers. But many lose traction when it comes to manage their human assets. AI can synchronize the competing interest of employee needs and operational objectives.
On-Demand-Webinar
Better Grip: Optimized Aggregates Sourcing
Algorithms have become a major efficiency driver for outbound transport optimization in ready-mix logistics. But many RMC producers still lose traction when it comes to manage and optimize their inbound aggregates supplies.

LTL Optimization in Building Materials Logistics
From cement bags to drainage coils, from a concrete manhole to a pack of screws, LTL planning is a tough challenge. Being able to take fast turns in transport planning can mean the difference between winning or losing the daily race against the clock.
On-Demand-Webinar
Machine Learning in Building Materials Logistics
Cement, ready-mix, and aggregates logistics are facing a major overhaul. Traditional tools and processes are being enhanced or replaced by Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI). Algorithms are challenging long-established practices.
On-Demand-Webinar
The Simple Maths of Load Carrier Management
Subtracting and adding load carriers or balancing their demand and supply seems to be a simple exercise. But in the daily grind of asset pooling this often turns out to be a complex calculation with various unknowns.

Under The Hood: CO2 Reduction in Cement Logistics
CO2 reduction in the cement industry focuses mainly on production processes. Logistics and transport, however, are also a relevant source of greenhouse gases and air pollutants. Compared to cement production, logistics are a low hanging fruit.
On-Demand-Webinar
Building AI into your LTL Deliveries
From palletized to stackable and from bagged to bulk – LTL planning in the building materials industry is a tough challenge. Being able to take fast turns can mean the difference between winning or losing the daily race against the clock.
On-Demand-Webinar
Rivals or Allies? Yard and Road in Cement Logistics
Some cement producers have optimized their yard processes, while others have optimized their transport processes. And the lucky few who have optimized both, in-plant and outbound logistics, hesitate to connect the two worlds.
On-Demand-Webinar
Top Scorers in Container and Reusable Packaging
The stats don’t lie: Algorithms have proven to be the best passers in pooling operations. But they are also great team players when it comes to progress the game to other software systems along the supply chain, e.g. TMS, YMS, or APS.
On-Demand-Webinar
The Yard and Road Workshop
From in-plant to outbound, from robots to routing, and from trucking to tracking: Automation in logistics has reached new levels. But despite all the tools and excitement, the question remains: What does it bring to the table?
On-Demand-Webinar
Pushing the Boundaries of Sustainability
Many building materials producers are on a “moonshot” mission to reduce the carbon footprint of their products. A mission-critical source of greenhouse gases, however, is often neglected: logistics and transport.
