69%
Recovery rate
Tracked plant recovers at 69% versus under 25% for assets without a tracker. For mixed fleets, that gap justifies the investment.
32%
Utilisation gain
Track which assets sit idle. GPS solutions improve equipment utilisation by 32%, cutting unnecessary hire and extending asset life.
40%
Downtime reduction
Predictive maintenance cuts unplanned downtime by up to 40%, helping to reduce downtime and keep assets productive.
$300M+
Annual theft cost
Plant and asset theft costs the construction industry over $300 million annually. Most stolen assets never return without a tracker.
Construction equipment tracking
GPS Tracking for Heavy Construction Equipment and Earthmoving Assets
Construction fleets face a challenge vehicle fleets don't. Excavators, backhoe loaders, graders, and earthmoving plant move between a construction site and the next. They sit idle at night without a driver to check on them. With Ctrack, you can track every asset in real time. Crystal logs live location, movement history, and operating data for plant and vehicles together. See where assets are and how they are being used.
- GPS tracker for all equipment typesTrack excavators, graders, compactors, generators, and trailers on one platform alongside your fleet.
- Live map and asset locationSee every asset on a live map. Track movement history and last-known position for plant and vehicles.
- Movement alerts and geofencingSet geofence zones around your job site. Get instant alerts when plant crosses a boundary after hours.
Equipment theft protection
Construction Equipment Theft Costs NZ Construction Companies More Than the Hardware
Plant without a GPS tracker recovers less than 25 percent of the time. Tracked assets with GPS recover at 69 percent. For operators managing half a million dollars of mobile plant, that is the difference between recovery and a full replacement claim. Ctrack's geofencing notifies your team the moment assets move outside approved zones.
Real-time tracking and alerts
Real-Time Asset Tracking and Alert Features for Your Equipment Fleet
Heavy plant on remote sites needs more than basic telematics. You need to know when an asset has been stationary for two days, when machine hours reach a service threshold, and when plant moves after hours. Set geofences around each worksite and track movement alerts as they happen. Monitor idle time and fuel consumption to cut waste. Ctrack's tracking platform gives project managers full visibility across the fleet.
- Utilisation monitoringTrack utilisation data to cut unnecessary hire costs.
- Engine hours for maintenanceSet service reminders when machine hours reach your maintenance threshold. Predictive alerts keep plant working and cut service costs.
- Geofence alertsMovement alerts flag potential theft activity when plant crosses a boundary.
