More recently, Midwest Concrete Materials added automated
scales at all of its sand plants. "So when one of our guys or a
customer comes in, they swipe a card, the order is in there, it
kicks out a ticket and it is good to go. Now, not just with our
concrete, but with our aggregate materials, we are downloading
the majority of our tickets there," Sanson said.
Sanson said what his company is doing today with Spectrum
and a two-person accounts receivable team would have
required as many as eight data entry people before, adding that
the time and labor saved with Spectrum has been instrumental
to helping the company realize tremendous growth.
"There are days where we are, in ready mix alone, having to
process 200 to 250 tickets. Again, you can only batch so much
per ticket. The same way with a dump truck. If you can only
haul 14 tons and you have 30 trucks running, they're going
to make several deliveries in a day, that's a lot of tickets. So
there is high volume on out ticketing and billing," Sanson said.
"Without Spectrum, and the powerful functionality it brings to
the table, effectively managing these operations would be next
to impossible."
