Well known for its work with the likes of Tarmac, Ashvale Haulage (part of the M O’Brien plant hire group), Scot JCB, Aggrecom and Leedale, PODFather is well versed in the art of helping companies plan and manage a paperless operation that improves both process and cash flow. The team will be on hand to show you the software solutions that has made PODFather the ePOD system of choice across so many of the nation’s construction businesses.  Visit https://www.hillhead.com/digital to find out more about this event.

Hillhead, the well-known quarry-based industry trade show has opted to take the event online with its first digital event taking place on the 30 and 31 March.  The conference will give delegates valuable insight into the key developments that will shape and transform the extractives and construction industries over the next decade, namely digitalization, decarbonization and infrastructure.  The online exhibition will give visitors the opportunity browse 500 suppliers and service providers and discover the latest products and solutions available to drive your business forward.

PODFather is the system of choice for both high-profile construction projects and independent operators. We have an intuitive yet ease to use construction logistics management system that will help you to handle a range of processes through one easy-to-use cloud-based platform and banish paper tickets forever.  With PODFather you can automate a range of processes – from bulk logistics planning, vehicle checks, and earthworks ticketing to POD and invoicing – that are currently so reliant on the right pieces of paper getting to the right place at the right time. We can help you make better use of your resources, invoice faster, and get full visibility, and accountability, of your operation.

“The PODFather electronic proof of delivery system is excellent; it’s intuitive and easy to use and has been successfully rolled out across 1,900 vehicles, 4,000 Tarmac staff and 5,400 drivers,” comments Tim Copping, Tarmac Connect Project Manager at Tarmac.  “The PODFather solution is helping us to lead the way in our industry; in this case by being the first construction materials company to successfully adopt a carbon-friendly, paperless ePOD business processes on a national scale.”

“To remain competitive in today’s infrastructure construction industry you need PODFather in place so that you can meet the project stipulation that all transport services be paperless,” adds Jack Dowd, Transport Manager at Ashvale Haulage (part of the M O’Brien plant hire group).  “It’s a massive step forward for us, and our industry, and I see nothing but huge benefits by using PODFather to plan and manage our operation.”

“The Hillhead event has, for many years, been a highlight in our event calendar,” comments Colin McCreadie, Managing Director at PODFather.  “We hope to be back at the Hillhead quarry soon but for now we are delighted to be participating in the digital event and we hope to have a chance to talk to all those visitors who are looking to improve planning processes, eradicate paper tickets and improve cashflow across their businesses.”
