C60 Drives Profitability Improvement
for Ready Mix Concrete Producers
Saving opportunities can be identified in 60 seconds or less!
MARCH 9, 2023
LAS VEGAS, NEVADA, UNITED STATES
At CONEXPO 2023, C60 is unveiling its flagship C60 Opportunity Platform which enables ready-mix concrete (RMC) producers to identify and drive profitability improvement. Considered the first of its kind in delivering instant efficiency and productivity information, C60 provides RMC producers with an innovative opportunity to find savings potentials across their entire business with easy-to-read, actionable insights. RMC businesses can instantly gain answers that maximize profitability and operational efficiency. The real-time insights and analytics allow producers to make informed decisions based on data rather than guesswork.
"We created C60 to enable RMC producers to see the most valuable opportunities in their business in 60 seconds or less.” said Ramy Sedra, CEO. “We look across their entire business, from materials, production, delivery to sales to see how they can do more with less. C60 is a groundbreaking software backed by the human touch from hands-on, RMC experts.”
Industry Benefits
C60’s co-inventors spent decades optimizing more than 1,500 ready-mix plants in 30 countries. Together, they developed hundreds of techniques to improve the profitability of ready-mix plants. C60 has packed this expertise into this first-of-a-kind opportunity platform.
The RMC industry will benefit from this pioneering technology as C60’s co-founders have previously identified more than $20 million in possible savings opportunities. This translates into more than 50 million cubes of ready-mix concrete volume that could be impacted and more than $1 - $5 savings opportunities per cube. C60’s reach is far and the opportunities for savings are vast for RMC producers, ultimately transforming the industry.
C60’s customers are ready-mix general managers, operational managers, company presidents and leaders. We believe that to help them drive profitability improvement requires innovative software and a team of amazing ready-mix people. C60’s customer success team is made up of experts with decades of RMC experience to support and coach our customers to get the most out of C60 and provide results to their bottom-line.
Features and Benefits
C60’s advanced analytics identifies inefficiencies across an entire RMC business with dollar-quantified insights with specific improvement actions that can help save money, allowing operations with greater precision, and with an end result of a better experience for customers.
This new software works with both small and large RMC producers as the business intelligence is supplied holistically across all operations. Moreover, C60 is considered platform agnostic. It enables a producer to pull data across the different RMC systems they use to bring a holistic view of their business. As a result, C60 can integrate across industry systems and does not favor one system over another.
A great feature is that the system is plug and play, so no additional IT experience is required. RMC producers can easily connect their existing systems to C60’s safe, secure and reliable cloud using our pre-built connectors. The producer always remains the owner and in control of all their data. C60 also integrates with various RMC software solutions, such as Command Alkon, Jonel, Marcotte, Stonemont, and others, as we are continuously adding new connectors.
Company Background
This new company is built through leveraging the expertise of their parent company, Heidelberg Materials. C60 is culmination of Heidelberg Material’s vision to expand its offering to include digital solutions to the ready-mix concrete industry.
“Customers have relied on Heidelberg Materials for 150 years to provide aggregates and cement, and now they can leverage that relationship with C60 for digital capabilities to optimize their business,” said Sedra.
It’s important to note that C60 is an independently run company with its own management team. As they are separate, C60 can work with any RMC company and does not share information with Heidelberg Materials.
“Data privacy is at the heart of our business,” said Sedra. “Data is stored in C60’s safe, secure and reliable cloud. We do not share data between C60 and Heidelberg Materials. In fact, those protections are defined in our client contracts.”
Helping with Today’s Challenges
For an RMC producer to maximize profitability and operations, it requires a focus on improving production processes, improving logistics and delivery, minimizing waste and monitoring performance. C60’s technology provides a step to achieve these goals.
C60 drives RMC companies to move to the next level of efficiency and profitability. This even includes optimizing the use of cement which helps reduce the levels of CO2 emissions. By looking at all aspects of an RMC plant, improvements and changes can be identified to help with industry environmental goals of reducing CO2 emission levels by 2030.
