LASTRADA™ for Aggregate

Unique solutions to improve the performance of your aggregate quality control & testing process.

LASTRADA covers all relevant perspectives when managing aggregate quality control.

LASTRADA contains modules specific to aggregate suppliers, hot mix asphalt (HMA) producers, aggregate testing labs, and asphalt binder producers. These modules are used along with LASTRADA’s standard modules to create workflows tailored to each user’s unique process. Companies can also customize reports to maintain consistency with their existing processes and company brand, as well as automate existing analysis processes.

Custom Aggregate Software Solutions

LASTRADA’s core aggregate capabilities are deployed into multiple aggregate modules for aggregate producers, hot mix asphalt producers, aggregate testing labs, and asphalt binder producers. Our proprietary structure keeps data separate and combined, preventing errors and simplifying its use. Other LASTRADA features are combined with the core aggregate capabilities to create customer-specific workflows and processes.

Aggregate Producers

LASTRADA’s comprehensive aggregate capabilities allow aggregate producers to simplify their processes and high grade products. Using LASTRADA’s production control modules, companies can organize and manage their processes all in one platform. The data gathered here is utilized in building custom statistical and custom sample reporting that can later be sent to clients, and analyzed using KPI.
