Do you know where your equipment and vehicles are and whether they are being used? Have you ever lost critical time due to a machine not being allocated to the right job? Are you able to proactively plan maintenance and monitor safety?
Capturing accurate — and timely — construction equipment information is a challenge that many contractors face. Data collection and analysis has traditionally been a manual process, and many times information would slip through the cracks leading to equipment being poorly maintained, overused or even retired before necessary. Additionally, poorly managed equipment can lead to lower productivity levels and higher job costs and profit fade on the jobsite. Seeing as how equipment is one of the largest capital assets that contractors have, doesn’t it make sense for your organization to prioritize optimizing your equipment management?
Join Brandon Kim, a product expert on Trimble Pulse, for our special Feb. 12 Take 15 webinar, Connecting Equipment to Optimize Utilization and Performance to learn how a GPS-connected construction fleet can help you increase your uptime and productivity. Hear Kim discuss what you’ll learn:
