Take control of your entire operation with advanced asset tracking and management. Here are four reasons to consider making the investment.

Easily Find Expensive Assets

Easily locate high-value assets so you don’t waste a moment tracking down something that could help you at a job site.

Comprehensive tracking technology lets you use a browser-based command center to track your asset inventory, track where equipment has been, and make sure equipment is being properly utilized. You can also use your mobile phone to monitor and locate assets that are tracked by GPS technology.

Improve Asset Utilization

See exactly how your assets are being used in the field. Make sure you’re getting a good return on your investment by ensuring your equipment is where it needs to be. 

By tracking usage, you can improve your operation’s cost analysis and create competitive bids for future work. You can use asset trackers to properly record usage and bill customers who rent equipment from you with hard data to back up any disputes.

Track Maintenance Needs

Let technology help you keep track of your assets’ maintenance needs and take preventative steps to keep your equipment working properly for a long time.

You can use asset management to keep track of engine hours, create reminders to schedule out maintenance needs, and leave notes to order part replacements so you can get your equipment back in the field as quickly as possible. Use historical logs to help anticipate any large repairs so you can make more accurate budgets and schedules ahead of time.

Prevent Unauthorized Use

Protect your assets, your reputation, and your bottom line by making sure your equipment is being properly used. Set up geofences around job sites that create virtual perimeters around your assets. The system alerts you if anyone tries to move it from the site. That way you can instantly alert law enforcement and keep your assets where they’re needed: at the job site.
