Colas chose Kiloweb

How Colas digitalised its crushing and loading activities and regained full control

Colas noticed that their paper tickets were increasingly causing problems: hard to read, lost, or incomplete. Over a period of five years, the company lost nearly €125,000 because of this. The need for a reliable digital solution became urgent. After an initial introduction to our team, Colas made the switch to Kiloweb, our software for digital tracking and invoicing of crushing and loading activities. The result: fewer errors, more oversight, and a much more efficient workflow.

The challenge

Colas faced several recurring challenges:

  • Paper tickets were getting lost or were hard to read, leading to incorrect or missing invoicing.
  • A lack of real‑time visibility for on‑site employees.
  • Many unnecessary phone calls between teams and administration to clarify assignments.
  • A risk of misunderstandings regarding tonnages, product types, and planning.
  • A clear need for a digital, reliable, and user‑friendly solution.

 The financial impact was significant: nearly €125,000 lost over five years due to administrative errors and missing tickets.

The solution: Kiloweb

After an introduction with our IT professionals and our representative, Colas gained confidence in Kiloweb. The implementation went smoothly, and the system was fully configured to their needs.

What does Kiloweb mean for Colas — in practice, in daily operations, and in overall efficiency?

Real‑time digital tickets
Tickets are sent automatically, even when a crew is working on the other side of the country. This eliminates countless phone calls and cuts down significantly on administrative hassle.
Always up‑to‑date insight via smartphone or iPad
Employees can see at any moment which tasks are scheduled, which calibres need to be crushed, and which trucks are being loaded. No more calls saying “you need to do this now” — everything is ready and visible in the app.
Easy assignment dispatching
For each job, Colas can quickly specify the number of tonnes and the type of product.
Smooth implementation
Thanks to our IT team, Colas hardly had to prepare anything. They received a turnkey system that was ready to use immediately.
Personalised tickets
Including the company name and even a photo of their crusher — a detail Colas greatly appreciated.
Support with a smile
Our IT team was ready to answer all questions and guided Colas step by step through the start-up phase and the follow-up.

Thanks to Kiloweb Colas now has:

  • Full control over their ticket flow
  • No more losses due to missing or incorrect tickets
  • Fewer phone calls and fewer misunderstandings
  • Faster and more accurate invoicing
