MicroLogic
iSite is an integrated fleet management system that transmits the exact location, run-hours and key operating metrics of equipment to an office PC in real time, using satellite communications, GPS positioning and Internet technologies. With on-demand access to timely, accurate and pertinent information on equipment, a rental company will get more out of its existing resources and waste less time. A low-power, ruggedized remote transponder is installed on each piece of equipment and collects location data from a GPS unit and operating information on the condition of the equipment. This information is then sent via satellite and wireless networks to MicroLogic's Information Management Facility, which analyzes and formats the data, customizing maps and reports to meet a client's specific needs.

DeWalt
DeWalt's MobileLock GPS locator and anti-theft alarm aims to help professional contractors better protect mobile assets on jobsites.

Qualcomm
Qualcomm's GlobalTRACS equipment management system automatically tracks and locates equipment for improved equipment utilization and workforce productivity, as well as increased revenue. The system updates location data for equipment to ensure that the equipment is where it is supposed to be and logs machine usage hours, which helps companies with scheduling and equipment maintenance.
The GlobalTRACS system helped Thoutt Brothers, a Denver-based construction contractor, recover a stolen skid-steer loader. The GPS-based positioning tools pinpointed the missing equipment's location. “Sometimes we were nervous for days because we could not find a piece of equipment,” says C.J. Thoutt, equipment manager. “Now, with GlobalTRACS, we can track and locate each piece of equipment quickly for precise job scheduling and superior customer service.”
