In a bold step toward digital transformation, the Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is mandating e-Ticketing for all DOT projects beginning in 2026. For contractors, haulers, and material producers across the state, this shift isn’t just about compliance—it’s an opportunity to boost efficiency, improve accountability, and streamline operations with the help of approved providers like TruckIT.
What Is the GDOT E-Ticketing Requirement?
Under Section 110 of GDOT specifications, all vehicles delivering weighted materials such as aggregate and concrete must transition to electronic ticketing (e-Ticketing). This includes dump trucks, belly dumps, pavers, and material transfer vehicles. These vehicles must also feature GPS-enabled tracking systems to monitor load status, verify locations, and provide full transparency throughout the delivery lifecycle.
Starting in March 2025, GDOT will launch a dual-ticketing pilot requiring both paper and digital tickets for selected lettings—a critical window for contractors to prepare for the upcoming mandate.
Why TruckIT?
TruckIT is an approved GDOT e-Ticketing technology provider, enabling real-time compliance and powerful operational advantages. From asphalt to aggregate, TruckIT helps contractors move beyond paper tickets and legacy systems by offering a fully digital platform that increases accuracy, transparency, and speed.
“Manual ticketing creates bottlenecks, errors, and delays that cost real time and money,” said Andrew Lindsay, CEO of TruckIT. “GDOT’s pilot program is a strategic runway to help contractors fully acclimate ahead of the 2026 mandate.”
Key Benefits of TruckIT’s E-Ticketing Solutions
1. AirTicket™: 100% Paperless and Instant
TruckIT’s patented AirTicket technology connects directly to scalehouse systems, instantly generating a digital bill of lading. All stakeholders—from drivers to DOT inspectors—can access ticket data in real time, resulting in:
- Same-day billing
- Faster accounting closes
- Fewer disputes
- Real-time chain of custody visibility
2. Automatic-PIC: Make Any Paper Ticket Digital
Still receiving printed or handwritten tickets? No problem. Automatic-PIC uses AI, OCR, and computer vision to instantly capture and digitize ticket data like weight, timestamps, and signatures—even from poor-quality images.
“We were spending enormous time tracking paper,” said Rafael Hurtado, Equipment Director at Pulice Construction. “TruckIT eliminated the burden, streamlined operations, and helped keep our DOT project in the Rio Grande Valley on schedule.”
Real-World Results: Case Study with N.W. White
Before adopting TruckIT, N.W. White & Co., one of the Southeast’s largest hauling companies, relied on paper dispatch and manual ticket reconciliation. After switching to TruckIT, they transformed their back office and field operations.
“TruckIT hasn’t just made our operations better—it’s redefined how we do business,” said Graham Reinhart, Project Manager. “Drivers are more efficient, billing is faster, and we’ve virtually eliminated ticketing errors.”
