Entreprise Monégasque de Travaux (EMT) has the only concrete plant in Monaco. The facility is designed around two mixer units and they constantly have to manage a busy order schedule. Not always an easy situation, especially when the software of the plant needed changing. “We were equipped with Command Alkon’s CE2 software, which was coming to the end of its possibilities. We’ve just changed to the new CP software, with a few adaptations due to the particular configuration of our production unit”, indicates Franck Carles, EMT’s Director of Operations. “The operation needed to be fully primed ahead of time, because we started implementation on a Friday afternoon and on the following Monday morning we already had to deal with an order for 1000 m3 of concrete. Everything worked out perfectly!”
The preparation from the Command Alkon team for the operation to roll out CP and replace CE2 was impeccable. “The CE2 software will be terminated in 2024. We are starting to migrate our clients to its successor, CP” adds Gaël L’Hopital, Command Alkon’s Director of Operations. We’d already done a pilot setup with Eqiom. This project was the second one of that type. Having only three days to act was a challenge, along with having two mixing units in the plant. But we did a simulation ahead of time. And, on D day, everything was done as planned. We were even able to do tests all day on Sunday.” EMT is now ready for the future!
