4922 Command Alkon is now offering BuildIt, a new solution that allows contractors, haulers and suppliers to work together by streamlining their orders through goods acceptance. Companies can order, receive and account for materials being delivered to the job site on a centralised platform that integrates with ticketing software. Information can be digitally shared across the entire HBM system.  


BuildIt is an electronic ticket management system that automates manual processes. This solution eliminates the dependence on paper tickets and was developed for the HBM system for tracking materials and truck assets. Each electronic transaction ensures that both parties are viewing the same data. Buyers can reconcile accepted goods and services against invoices, permitting quicker payment to suppliers and quicker month-end closings. BuildIt integrates with Command Alkon’s TrackIt GPS and Telematics solution. Using TrackIt in conjunction with BuildIt permits real-time tracking of on-site third-party trucks and supplier deliveries.
