NCDOT Lesson 4: NCDOT Product Data Flow

NCDOT Product Data Flow

Overview

NCDOT uses Idencia to capture and collate product data provided by Precast and Prestressed producers.  Data flows from the Producer's Idencia database, to NCDOT's Highway Construction and Materials System (HiCAMS).  Below is a brief overview of how and when this data is transferred.

  1. Product data are entered by the Producer into the Producer's Idencia database
  2. Once data is saved in your Gateway management portal or synced from the Connect mobile app, data captured in the Producer's Idencia database is transferred to NCDOT's HiCAMS system.

    NOTE:  Unless additional configuration is completed in your Idencia Management Portal, ALL data you capture in your Idencia database will be transferred to NCDOT's HiCAMS system.  If you capture information for jobs not associated with NCDOT, and you would like to transfer ONLY data related to NCDOT products, contact your Customer Liaison for assistance in configuring your system to send only NCDOT data to the NCDOT database.

  3. Product Inspection data are entered by NCDOT inspectors into HiCAMS
  4. Field Inspection Reports are approved by NCDOT Supervisors
  5. Producers are free to ship product.

IMPORTANT NOTE:  Products can not be accepted on an NCDOT job site without an approved Field Inspection Report in HiCAMS.  A passing inspection recorded by the NCDOT Inspector while on site at your plant IS NOT enough for the product to be accepted on the job site. The project's Resident Engineer MUST find an approved Field Inspection Report in the HiCAMS system in order to recieve your product onto the job site.  Please verify an approved Field Inspection report exists prior to shipment.
