The Alandale Delivery Booking Manager (ADBM) was one of the first truly web-based delivery management systems designed for construction. Initially developed nearly 20 years ago for a major European project, ADBM is now trusted on some of the UK’s largest and most complex construction sites, streamlining deliveries and coordinating essential resources with precision.
ADBM provides tailored access for all project stakeholders:
Contractor Access – for booking and managing deliveries
Client Access – for oversight and live tracking
Administration Access – for system configuration and full control
This tiered access ensures visibility, accountability, and smooth communication across the project team.
ADBM doesn’t just manage delivery times, it also tracks and allocates all major project resources, including:
By assigning capacities to both resources and vehicles, ADBM prevents congestion, eliminates double-booking, and ensures deliveries reach their final destination efficiently and safely.
Unlike traditional delivery systems, ADBM distributes bookings across the entire day, a process known as demand smoothing. This approach reduces peak-time congestion, maximises site efficiency, and ensures every delivery integrates seamlessly with ongoing operations.
ADBM also supports sustainable construction practices. The system captures:
Vehicle sizes and fuel types
Travel distances
CO₂ emissions
This data is used to generate monthly CO₂ reports, helping projects meet BREEAM standards and other environmental objectives.
ADBM is continually enhanced to meet evolving construction demands. With real-time resource tracking, advanced scheduling, and sustainability reporting, it provides complete visibility, control, and efficiency for every project delivery.
From planning to execution, ADBM ensures safe, efficient, and sustainable delivery management, giving clients confidence that every material arrives on time, on site, and ready for use.
