Dalos’ Effective Asset Tracking for a Large Construction Project
![asset tracking for a large construction project](https://dalos.co/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/large-construction-project-asset-tracking.jpg)
Project Overview:
A major construction firm faced delays and increased costs due to frequent equipment misplacement and theft. This asset tracking case study highlights how, without effective asset tracking, the company struggled to track assets across multiple job sites, leading to inefficiencies in resource allocation and project overruns.
The Dalos Solution:
The construction firm implemented Dalos’ Unified Asset Intelligence Platform to track major equipment, including excavators, bulldozers, and cranes, in real time. IoT-enabled sensors and GPS tracking devices were attached to each piece of equipment, allowing the firm to monitor location, usage, and condition.
Results:
- 30% Reduction in Equipment Misplacement: Real-time tracking reduced the time spent searching for misplaced machinery and tools.
- 40% Decrease in Theft: Geofencing alerts helped prevent theft by notifying management when equipment moved outside authorized areas.
- 25% Improvement in Equipment Utilization: Dalos’ usage reports enabled the firm to optimize resource allocation, ensuring all equipment was used where needed most.
Business Efficiency and ROI for Construction Firms
For construction companies, the benefits of IoT-powered asset tracking go beyond improving day-to-day operations; they directly impact profitability. By using Dalos to track and manage assets, companies can reduce equipment loss, improve resource utilization, and minimize downtime, leading to greater profitability.
Key ROI Drivers:
- Cost Savings: With fewer assets lost to theft and better utilization of equipment, companies can significantly reduce operational costs.
- Improved Project Timelines: Real-time tracking eliminates delays caused by missing or misplaced equipment, keeping projects on schedule.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: Predictive maintenance minimizes breakdowns and repair costs, extending the lifespan of assets.
