SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONNECTING MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS THROUGH SCALE TICKET DATA

Abstract:

A method includes receiving, from a material plant management system, check-in data for a haul truck that has checked into a material plant, the check-in data including a haul truck identifier and a check-in time. The method further includes receiving, from the material plant management system, scale ticket data including a destination of the haul truck and a check-out time at which the haul truck exits the material plant with a load of material, sending, via a network, the scale ticket data to a haul truck management system associated with the haul truck and a worksite management system associated with the destination, determining, based on the check-out time and the destination, an estimated time of arrival representing a time at which the haul truck will reach the destination, and providing, via the network, the estimated time of arrival to the haul truck management system and the worksite management system.
