Coal

Coal transportation monitoring for every trip

See every coal truck from dispatch to receipt, with verified weights, approved routes, and a complete audit trail for each trip.

Coal moves fast. Your records should keep up.

Coal for power plants, cement kilns, and steel plants is moved in high volumes by road, often by many transporters at once. Without live monitoring, plants learn about route deviations, unplanned stops, and short deliveries only after the fact, when they are hard to prove.

PortEight combines GPS tracking, geofencing, and weighbridge automation so that each coal trip has a timestamped record of where the truck went, how long it stopped, and what it weighed at both ends.

Common challenges we solve

Route deviations

Trucks leave the approved route or stop at unapproved locations.

Short deliveries

Unloading weight falls below loading weight beyond normal tolerance.

Manual dispatch records

Paper challans and registers are slow to reconcile and easy to alter.

Limited visibility

Plant teams cannot see which trucks are on the way or when they will arrive.

How PortEight works

  1. 01
    Dispatch from source

    Each coal trip is created against an order, with the vehicle identified at the loading point.

  2. 02
    Monitor in transit

    Live GPS tracking shows location, speed, stoppages, and route compliance.

  3. 03
    Receive and weigh

    Geofences record arrival, and automated weighment captures the received quantity.

  4. 04
    Validate the trip

    Weights, route, and timings are checked against the order before freight is approved.
