Track your high-value machinery and vehicle fleet together in one unified platform. Real-time visibility and advanced asset reporting help you optimize field operations, protect site equipment, and prevent project downtime.
Risk & security
Set virtual perimeters and geofence alerts for effective heavy equipment theft prevention across remote, unlit project sites.
Equipment uptime
Use diagnostic alerts and engine hours to automate machinery maintenance before broken equipment halts work.
Operational efficiency
Track engine hours to stop paying for unnecessary equipment rentals while owned machinery sits idle.
Accurate job costing
Pipe heavy equipment data into your back-office software to build accurate budgets, control costs, and win bids.
Fuel management
Monitor engine runtimes and idle trends to cut wasted fuel and simplify off-road fuel tax refund claims.
Case study
On a Saturday morning, I got an alert that the backhoe was being utilized.... I got in my truck and drove up there. While I was driving, I was talking with the Anderson County Sheriff Department. So I got there. I went right to the backhoe. It was eight tenths of a mile from the job site.

Our platform handles the heavy lifting of equipment monitoring, helping your department:
Heavy equipment refers to large machinery built for tasks like earthmoving, construction, mining and agriculture. Some common examples of heavy equipment include bulldozers, cranes, excavators, road graders, dump trucks, and backhoes.
You need a GPS tracker for heavy equipment to help stop theft, lower operating costs, and automate maintenance. Bulldozers, excavators, and generators left at remote job sites are targets, so tracking systems protect these physical assets and improve daily work efficiency.
Tracking heavy equipment on job sites requires a mix of hardware and software. Use GPS trackers for large machinery like excavators and cranes, and a central management platform like Reveal to view real-time maps, engine hours and security alerts in one dashboard.
Heavy equipment service intervals depend on operating hours and manufacturer guidelines. Using a tracking solution like Reveal makes inspections and tracking equipment usage simple so you can keep heavy equipment operational.
With Reveal you can get instant alerts if a loader's ignition is triggered outside of approved working hours or weekend shifts to identify unauthorized use. Geofences help you to identify if the equipment has left the job site. GPS tracking allows you to view the equipment’s location so you can lead law enforcement directly to it for recovery.
