Problems Scheduling Asphalt Plants

Over the last 30 years most innovations in the construction materials industry have focused on equipment and processing based issues.  Most companies in the industry focus their efforts on building better crushers, more effective screens, more efficient dryer drums, and longer lasting bearings.  These products have come a long ways over the past 30 years, and the majority of advancement has happened here.

Despite the advances of computers, ipads, iphones, and other electronic equipment used everyday by the people who run these plants and facilities, little has been done to innovate on the human experience and the software that supports material planning and scheduling.

What has been missing was a solution for the industry which could connect all these people who are independently struggling, to be working using one tool and solve asphalt plant scheduling problems together– A dedicated tool to help plant operators, sales people, managers and everyone who works at asphalt, concrete, aggregate and construction materials producers, to schedule and forecast their business. Out of this need PlantDemand was born.
