Command Alkon Unveils Next-generation Platform For APAC Market 

KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 5 (Bernama) -- Command Alkon, a software and solutions provider for the heavy building materials industry, has introduced its next-generation platform, Command Cloud, to the Asia Pacific (APAC) market.

The platform offers an all-in-one cloud solution for managing business processes, including inventory management and back-office functions, for heavy building materials companies, according to a statement.

Command Cloud harnesses the full spectrum of cloud-native advantages, ensuring scalability, resiliency, global reach, and exceptional resource efficiency. Unlike traditional databases, its no Structured Query Language (SQL) technology effortlessly scales to handle peak demand and deliver a consistent and secure user experience.

With uncompromising uptime and resilience, Command Cloud is designed to withstand and swiftly recover from disruptions, reduce total cost of ownership, and remove operational complexities, allowing businesses to invest in other areas to improve top-line profitability.

Leveraging machine learning and generative artificial intelligence, predictive analytics, and decision-making tools are tailored to meet the specific needs of Ready Mix, Aggregate, and Asphalt suppliers. These tools empower users to make informed decisions and drive growth in their unique business landscapes.

In 2024, the company announced a US$20 million investment to accelerate the rollout of cloud-based solutions, and the first products from that investment will be delivered to the APAC market in the second quarter of 2025.

The investment also supports the completion of the development of Aggregates and Asphalt Cloud software offerings, including Bulk Dispatch and Scale Ticketing in 2025.

Command Cloud solutions also incorporate Internet of Things (IoT) technologies for remote management and self-diagnostics, enhancing the user experience. With a focus on creating a seamless experience across software and hardware, Command Alkon aims to drive the future of the heavy building materials industry.

Command Alkon has also invested in a modern user interface for its Dispatch feature, designed through continuous testing and user feedback. This intuitive interface is available on any device and offers customisable analytics dashboards to help businesses track performance and improve profitability.

Command Cloud’s open application programming interface (API) strategy allows businesses to tailor solutions to their specific needs, and its Connected Partner Program aims to drive industry innovation by collaborating with forward-thinking companies.

However, the technology is currently unavailable in China and India.
