For companies that own or rent heavy equipment for construction, protecting and extending the useful life of these assets through heavy equipment maintenance are among your top priorities. Between the high cost of heavy equipment rentals or purchases, the difficulty of replacing damaged or stolen heavy equipment, and the lost income your organization faces when it is unavailable, protecting these assets is essential. This is where heavy equipment tracking can help.
Earthmovers, flatbeds, generators, cranes, and other heavy construction equipment are expensive to replace when it is stolen or falls into disrepair. GPS tracking for construction equipment helps you to protect your heavy equipment rentals and purchased property in several ways, including:
Every piece of construction equipment requires regular maintenance to avoid mechanical failures. GPS equipment tracking software can be helpful for
One critical protection strategy for preventing heavy equipment theft is knowing where your equipment is at all times. Heavy equipment GPS tracking devices simplify the process of tracking and monitoring your heavy equipment rentals and owned equipment. Equipment tracking devices with motion sensor or geofencing capabilities will notify you instantaneously whenever the devices have moved or have entered (or left) specific geographic locations.
Heavy equipment GPS tracking devices can help keep renters honest so that they don’t move rented equipment out of the agreed-upon use area. Geofencing can be used here as well by allowing you to set up alerts to notify you whenever a GPS-tagged asset leaves the service area. This ability is invaluable for preventing heavy equipment rental contract breaches and enforcing rental contracts — helping you ensure your assets are where they should be when they should be there.
If your organization or business owns heavy equipment rather than relying on heavy equipment rentals, construction GPS tracking can also benefit you. By performing heavy equipment maintenance regularly, you can reduce your total cost of ownership (TCO) by prolonging the useful life of your heavy equipment and minimizing wasted labor and maintenance parts.
