What are the benefits of asset tracking?

AT&T additional features included with Asset Tracker boosts operational efficiency through immediate, centralized asset tracking. A business can monitor the status of assets (including environment readings, impact status, or maintenance) whenever necessary, and receive alerts of asset movement or unauthorized activity. Asset Tracker provides visibility into the location and status of high-value equipment, trailers, tools, packages, inventory, and storage containers.

Asset Tracker uses specialized tracking devices powered by advanced GPS technology to protect onsite heavy equipment, trailers, and storage containers from theft or unauthorized use. Instead of relying on manual tracking by site managers, critical asset information such as location, utilization, environment, current project, maintenance history, and job history is automatically sent from an asset tracking device in the field to a central management dashboard over the nationwide, reliable, secure AT&T wireless communication network.

Available anywhere with an internet connection, asset managers can check humidity, temperature, light exposure and impact status while alerts can be set for assets that move or leave a designated area—ensuring that equipment doesn’t get lost, stolen or used inappropriately.

AT&T Fleet Complete with Asset Tracker ensures tools, supplies, infrastructure, and equipment is in the right place at the right time. This means better resource allocation and visibility across worksites and customer sites, and avoids delivery mixups that could set back projects under tight deadlines. Asset tracking via GPS also prevents loss or theft, ensures correct operation and maintenance, and optimizes asset performance—giving workers what they need to complete projects on time and under budget.
