Modernizing Fleet Dispatch and Bill of Lading Operations for High Volume Materials Distribution
Netkinetix partnered with Mathy Construction Company to modernize bill of lading and fleet dispatch operations with a secure, web-based platform.
Client Overview
Mathy’s Bill of Lading operations support material movement across plants, job sites, and customers, requiring accurate weight capture, documentation, and system integration. Netkinetix partnered with Mathy to modernize the Bill of Lading system by designing a web-based application that integrated scale data, automated ticket generation, and improved data flow between dispatch, operations, and reporting. The solution increased accuracy, reduced manual effort, and improved documentation to support material tracking and compliance.

- Solution: Fleet Dispatch and Bill of Lading Management System
Results Snapshot
A modernized dispatch and Bill of Lading platform improved reliability, data accuracy, and long-term maintainability across high-volume materials operations.
Modernized Dispatch Infrastructure
Legacy dispatch and bill of lading systems were refactored into a maintainable web-based platform.
Improved Data Accuracy
Direct integrations with scale systems reduce manual entry and improve load documentation accuracy.
Preserved Operational Workflows
Dispatchers and drivers continue using familiar workflows while benefiting from improved system performance.
The Challenge
Mathy operates high-volume asphalt and materials terminals where dispatching and Bill of Lading documentation must be both operationally efficient and legally compliant. The existing system had been in operation since 2006 and had dispatched hundreds of thousands of loads across multiple facilities. Over time, the platform accumulated technical complexity and legacy architecture that made enhancements difficult and increased maintenance risk. Outdated interfaces, dynamic database calls, and fragmented regional logic created challenges for ongoing development. Meanwhile, regulatory requirements, plant integrations, and operational demands continued to evolve.
Key Challenges
- Legacy architecture that increased technical maintenance risk
- Complex database access patterns and outdated technology components
- Fragmented logic across regions and terminal configurations
- Increasing integration requirements with plant and scale systems
- Need to preserve proven workflows while modernizing infrastructure
Mathy required a modernization effort that could improve reliability and maintainability without disrupting daily dispatch operations.
Our Approach
Project Approach
- Technical assessment of legacy system architecture and dependencies
- Identification of redundant or unused functionality to simplify the system
- Iterative refactoring that preserved existing workflows while improving structure
Netkinetix collaborated closely with Mathy stakeholders to evaluate the legacy architecture and define a modernization strategy that minimized operational disruption.
This approach allowed the system to evolve into a modern platform while maintaining the operational familiarity relied on by dispatchers, drivers, and plant personnel.
The Solution
Netkinetix modernized the Bill of Lading and Fleet Dispatch systems by refactoring them into a secure web-based platform built on current Microsoft technologies. The system retains core data structures and operational concepts while simplifying architecture and improving modularity. Integrations with plant operations systems and scale equipment allow dispatch and load documentation to flow more reliably between operational processes. By modernizing the system while preserving established workflows, Mathy gained improved system stability and a stronger foundation for future enhancements.
Fleet Dispatch Management
The system provides centralized visibility into dispatch operations across terminals.
- Centralized fleet dispatch with real-time load board visibility
- Dispatch coordination across multiple plants and terminals
- Tools for managing carriers, drivers, and load assignments
Bill of Lading Management
The platform supports the full lifecycle of Bill of Lading documentation.
- Bill of Lading creation, editing, printing, and reprinting workflows
- Driver-friendly interfaces for completing load details and manifests
- Support for both manned and unmanned terminal operations
Operational Integrations
Direct integrations improve accuracy and streamline operational data flow.
- Integration with Plant Operations for load forecasting and reconciliation
- Interfaces with scale systems to automatically capture weight data
- Reduced manual entry and improved load documentation accuracy
The Result
The modernized Bill of Lading platform reduced technical risk while preserving a mission critical system used daily across multiple terminals. System reliability improved through cleaner architecture and standardized database access. Dispatch and driver workflows remained familiar while benefiting from improved performance and maintainability. The solution provides a dependable foundation that supports ongoing enhancements, regulatory changes, and operational growth.
