KNOXVILLE, Tenn.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#aggregate–TAC Insight, developer of the Fast-Weigh cloud platform for bulk material sales and logistics, announces a new strategic investment from industry veterans John Chaney and Norbert Orth. With over 50 years of experience in construction technology and software, the investors will bring executive leadership to help accelerate Fast-Weigh’s growth and scale its operations to address industry demand.
“We have had a long relationship with John and Norbert over the years and have great respect for their industry knowledge and proven track record in scaling software companies within the construction tech sector,” says Mike Mendiola, TAC Insight President.
Based in Seattle, Mr. Chaney was previously co-founder and President of Dexter+Chaney, a construction-based ERP accounting platform.

TAC Insight reports significant growth in recent years, highlighted by the release of several new Fast-Weigh products, including a revamped browser-based Scale Ticketing Application, an Asphalt Silo Loadout module, and a new In-Yard Loader App, among others. As the company continues to attract new customers, its leadership looks forward to collaborating with the new investors to build more innovative cloud software tools for the bulk material sales and transportation sector.
