摘要：	It has taken a global pandemic to convince some road owners that a system which involves passing pieces of paper from asphalt plant to truck to site supervisor is not the best way to do things. "Some people were already looking at e-tickets, and specifications had been created in many states for e-tickets before the pandemic," says Nick McRae, CEO of construction fleet management company Broadloop. "Coronavirus accelerated it." Though many companies have been set up to deliver the e-ticketing function only, others provide more sophisticated digital tracking tools that stretch from planning to mixing, delivery, paving analysis and accounts, among them Joseph Vogele, Amman, Volz Consulting, Topcon and Broadloop. These tools are by no means mainstream yet, but the combination of the 'pandemic effect' and more friendly interfaces could be the push needed to increase uptake. "From Trimble's perspective, any technology adoption is good for the industry," says Kevin Garcia, general manager at Trimble Civil Specialty Solutions. "Some successes lead to more adoption. We just want to see the industry as a whole become more digitally advanced."
