Increase asset utilisation

Follow asset usage trends directly from MyGeotab to identify opportunities to increase utilisation. Report on true asset utilisation, dwell time, yard movements and site entry and exit times, and use this data to provide accurate, timely billing information to customers.

Stay informed of asset conditions

Maximise equipment uptime and reduce maintenance costs by monitoring the status and condition of your assets remotely. Set up immediate alerts for entering or exiting a geofenced zone, temperature and light change, impact, and engine hour thresholds, and use this data to inform preventative maintenance schedules.

Commonly asked questions

GPS asset tracking solutions enable fleet managers to keep track of the locations and conditions of all your high value equipment, including:
• Trailers and containers
• Generators
• Heavy-duty site equipment such as loaders, bulldozers and excavators
• Lifting equipment and cranes

A GPS device is fitted to each piece of equipment, which sends data in real-time to the asset tracking software. For Geotab, this information is all accessed through one central, web-based platform, MyGeotab.

The best devices for asset tracking have long battery lives, and are built to endure harsh weather and rough handling. These devices are known as being "ruggedised".

Asset tracking solutions show you the current location of each device, and allow you to set up geofences around your sites so that you can get an instant notification if an asset leaves the site boundaries. This gives you the power to respond immediately if an asset is stolen.

Data is also captured on engine hours and equipment condition and usage, which can be used to inform maintenance schedules, maximise equipment utilisation, and enable you to provide more comprehensive billing data to your customers.
Asset tracking software enables fleet managers to understand the locations and conditions of all of your high-value equipment and portable assets. Thousands of assets can be managed and controlled on one single web-based platform that helps you to get the most out of all of your equipment. Asset tracking solutions help you to ensure that you’re getting a good return on your investments, and mitigates the instances of additional equipment being purchased or hired when assets are sitting idle on other sites. They also minimise time wasted hunting for equipment across multiple job sites.

For Geotab, fleet tracking includes other focus areas such as fleet compliance, vehicle emissions, driver safety and vehicle health.
GPS asset tracking protects your assets from loss, theft, and under-utilisation. With asset tracking software, you can track engine hours, historic usage, and site entry and exit times, all of which can be used to provide comprehensive billing to your customers. Reminders can be scheduled for maintenance and replacement, and instant alerts can be sent when assets leave a site boundary, are subject to impacts, or exceed usage thresholds.
There are many advantages to using Geotab’s asset tracking software, together with the GO Device. This includes:

• Easy to install
