Across both events, Command Alkon will showcase Command Cloud, its unified cloud platform, and demonstrate how AI-powered tools, including its newly previewed agentic AI offering, Command Intelligence, are helping producers run smarter, more connected operations. Building the Future Today: 2026 IQA National Conference Command Alkon will join Australia's quarrying sector on the Gold Coast from 6–8 October 2026 at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre for the 2026 IQA National Conference. Attendees can expect more than 50 presentations from sector leaders and international experts, exclusive site visits to Gold Coast operations, and the IQA National Awards celebrating excellence across the sector, alongside more than 100 exhibitors showcasing the latest quarrying innovations. Delegates will also be able to connect with the Command Alkon team at the conference's signature networking events, including the Welcome Reception, Conference Dinner and Finale Dinner, set against the Gold Coast's coastal backdrop. At IQA, Command Alkon will spotlight the aggregates side of Command Cloud: Dispatch &amp; Scale Ticketing, for scheduling and ticketing with real-time visibility; TrackIt, for managing and tracking vehicles across the network; and Command Intelligence which lets producers ask operational questions in natural language and have it act — executing defined tasks on demand or on a schedule — all within a single connected platform Concrete NZ Conference 2026 Command Alkon will then cross the Tasman for the Concrete NZ Conference 2026, taking place 21–23 October 2026 at Tākina, Wellington. Now in its established two-day technical format, the conference is expected to draw more than 400 attendees from across the building and construction industries, including ready mix concrete producers, contractors, engineers and product manufacturers. The programme features presentations from New Zealand and international speakers, popular lightning talks, and an extensive exhibition area with trade displays and live demonstrations. The social programme includes the President's Reception and a formal dinner recognising industry excellence through Concrete NZ's awards, alongside the popular Concrete Cricket Bat competition. At Concrete NZ, Command Alkon will broaden that showcase to the full concrete side of Command Cloud, with a particular focus on three areas: <ul type="disc"><li>Batch — extends existing COMMANDbatch systems with secure, browser-based access and centralised control across multiple plants, giving producers real-time visibility into batching efficiency, material usage and plant performance so managers can standardise operations and redeploy labour where it's needed most.</li><li>Dispatch — the full quote-to-cash workflow from sales and quoting through scheduling, delivery and billing, with pump scheduling running in tandem to keep pump trucks and mixer trucks coordinated on the same job.</li><li>Command Intelligence — the same agentic AI offering on show at IQA, demonstrated here for concrete producers, ask a question in natural language and get an answer, or configure it to act — executing defined tasks on request or on a set schedule.</li><li>TrackIt — managing and tracking vehicles across the network, connected to the same Command Cloud platform as Batch and Dispatch. </li></ul> "IQA and Concrete NZ are two of the most important gatherings for our customers in this region, and we're looking forward to bringing our team to both," said Lori Allen, Vice President of Marketing at Command Alkon. "These events are a chance to show producers what's possible when production, dispatch and fleet operations run on one connected platform, and to preview how Command Intelligence is starting to change the way our customers make decisions on the ground."
