// Overview
Heidelberg Materials Butra has been manufacturing cement in Brunei since 1996. As heavy vehicle movement on site grew, manual weighing, paper-based verification and ad-hoc gate control were creating bottlenecks at the loading zones and inconsistencies in cement dispatch records. TekyDoct built a Weighbridge Workflow Process Automation System to bring the entire truck journey — from pre-registration to exit — onto one connected, verifiable flow.
// The work
Challenge, approach, result.
Business Challenges
As dispatch volumes grew, manual processes around vehicle movement and cement dispatch became harder to sustain. Key areas of focus included:
- Difficulty managing heavy vehicle movement across the site.
- Inaccuracy in cement dispatch verification.
- Bottlenecks forming at loading zones during peak periods.
- Manual weighing procedures causing delays at the weighbridge.
- Vehicle and driver verification done entirely by hand.
- Frequent paper document-handling errors and unauthorized site entries.
Our Approach
TekyDoct delivered a Weighbridge Workflow Process Automation System structured as a five-stage flow, from pre-registration through to exit.
- Truck & Driver Pre-Registration with a QR code tied to a scheduled time slot.
- Driver Arrival & Entry Verification via ANPR cameras checking plates against bookings.
- Automated Weighbridge & Loading Process capturing weight before and after loading.
- Load & Identity Verification cross-checking quantity against the Charge Docket with digital signature.
- Exit & Record Completion with an auto-generated dispatch slip and a final ANPR check.
- Barrier gate control tied into every verification step to block unauthorized movement.
Results Achieved
The automated workflow revolutionized how trucks move through the site — integrating digital verification into every step of the dispatch process.
- Improved efficiency across loading zones with fewer manual bottlenecks.
- Reinforced security through ANPR-verified entry and exit.
- Enhanced accuracy in cement dispatch records via digital charge-docket validation.
- Reduced reliance on paper documentation prone to handling errors.
- Clearer accountability with digital signatures at each verification point.
- A scalable, repeatable process ready to extend across future site expansions.

Every event operation — onboarding, networking, sessions, exhibitors and analytics — unified in one Zoho Backstage build. Hover any module to see what it covers.
Scheduling
QR Pre-Registration
Trucks and drivers are pre-registered with a scheduled time slot and issued a QR code before arrival, so the site knows who to expect and when.
Access control
ANPR Entry Verification
Cameras automatically read number plates on arrival and match them against pre-registration data before granting entry to the site.
Weighbridge
Automated Weight Capture
The weighbridge records vehicle weight automatically before and after loading, removing manual weighing and the delays it caused.
Verification
Charge Docket Validation
The system checks loaded cement quantity against the Charge Docket and requires digital signature sign-off before a truck can proceed.
Site security
Barrier Gate Control
Entry and exit barriers are tied into the verification steps, blocking unauthorized vehicle movement at every checkpoint.
Completion
Digital Dispatch Slip & Exit Check
An auto-generated dispatch slip with an embedded QR code is produced, followed by a final ANPR check as the truck exits the site.
