Growing legal, environmental, social, and economic demands are making connected processes in asphalt construction indispensable. Together with leading machinery and equipment manufacturers, Q Point offers a fully integrated digital solution for the entire asphalt process - from planning and production to paving. In doing so, we create transparency, efficiency, and sustainability across the entire value chain.
Q Point’s smart technologies enable proactive planning and real-time monitoring of construction processes. All relevant information is accessible anytime, from anywhere.
A consistent and traceable flow of information ensures clarity throughout the project. All stakeholders work with the same set of information, avoiding errors and misunderstandings.
Modern, eco-friendly mixing plants offer high efficiency with low emissions and optimized production costs. They integrate seamlessly into digital workflows.
Q Point’s digital production planning, combined with smart plant technology, enables resource-efficient manufacturing and opens a wide range of possibilities for analysis and optimization
Digital delivery notes, real-time truck locations, and precise delivery planning ensure smooth operations on the construction site. The entire logistics process is monitored and managed in real time.
Modern paving machines and digital systems for tracking temperature, compaction, and passes ensure consistently high asphalt quality. Effort is reduced, and performance is increased.
Construction Scheduling and Order Management
With Q Site, construction scheduling and the ordering process are fully digitalized and monitored in real time. Orders can be submitted as binding or non-binding, while the mixing plant integrated via Q Plant, can instantly confirm, reject, or provide feedback to the construction team in real time. Changes can be made flexibly and conveniently, both from the office and on the go, and are always logged. This ensures that all adjustments remain transparent and traceable for everyone always involved.
Optimal construction process support at anytime.
Production Planning and Manufacturing
Based on digitally recorded orders, Q Plant generates an optimized production schedule that can be automatically transferred to the control systems of the respective plant. This ensures resource-efficient asphalt production that is precisely aligned with delivery timelines. Operational and production data, as well as batch records, can be analyzed not only within the control systems but also centrally in Q Plant, even when multiple plants from different manufacturers are in use. This enables well-founded analyses and continuous process optimization.
The digital hub in the construction process.
Delivery
As soon as the asphalt mix is ready for dispatch, Q Plant retrieves the delivery data directly from the plant’s weighing system and, via integration with Q Transport, transmits it digitally to both the truck driver and the construction site. This allows the construction process to be perfectly aligned with the truck delivery sequence. At the same time, the mixing plant receives real-time updates on truck locations, enabling efficient planning of further production and loading operations.
A vital link between suppliers and clients.
Paving and Compaction
The paving process is optimally supported by precise temperature monitoring of the asphalt mix directly at the paver. At the same time, compaction by the rollers is controlled reliably and accurately. Both steps are efficiently managed and monitored by Q Machines, a system that can be used independently of equipment manufacturers. An additional cloud-based solution enables seamless data exchange between all machines on site and provides all relevant information online in real time for analysis and monitoring. This ensures maximum precision, efficiency, and quality throughout the entire paving process.
Intelligent machines for an optimal quality.
Documentation
Comprehensive recording of all relevant data throughout the entire asphalt process provides valuable insights into construction workflows and production. This continuous documentation helps identify optimization potential at an early stage and offers solid evidence for project owners and stakeholders.
