FOUNDATION FRAMEWORK
That includes a single rate for cellular connectivity and data consumption , with 95 % global coverage .
“ We support thousands of connectivity and data patterns around the world ,” Conradsen added . “ Having a single rate plan and one invoice for all of them is super useful .”
With regulatory requirements becoming more stringent , Trackunit has expanded its solutions capabilities to enable the collection of additional data sets that are helping its customers with compliance and reporting , including Off Highway Vehicle ( OHV ) CO 2 emissions .
In a Trackunit 2024 Survey on Construction ’ s Sustainability , 49 % of respondents stated sustainability as Important or Very Important . The report gathered 13,000 questionnaires from across construction , demonstrating a clear move toward the industry becoming more efficient . Of companies with operating income over Euro 50 million annually , 60 % were in that category .
“ Through our devices and systems Trackunit is able to track information related to emissions and safety , which is becoming increasingly critical for customers ” said Conradesen . “ The system utilises the Cisco IoT Control Center which is an excellent data and connectivity management platform . It just works .”
With one-third of the Trackunit ’ s spending going on research and development , this provides users with the tools that immediately enable them to take better decisions underpinned by data-led insights on being more sustainable , reducing risk and leveraging efficiencies that can unlock value .
Trackunit ’ s rapid growth and future trajectory are very different from a decade ago , when the company was first investigating reliable technology partners and platforms .
“ We have never been more satisfied with our connectivity or the underlying IoT platform ,” Conradsen added . “ The collaboration with KPN IoT and Cisco has been fantastic , transparent and open . We work together to support our customers , and there are no weak links in the chain .”
Connected equipment and systems are reducing vehicle and operator downtime on sites and in rental and vehicle yards . Faults and technologyled preventive maintenance checks on machines are making a real difference . Faults are flagged and the level of the problem analysed , and preemptive action taken to reduce downtime to a minimum . This connectivity allows owners and rental yards to schedule the machine into the workshop , ordering replacement components and ensuring minimal disruption to the rental contract and onsite work processes . �
