Construction Asset Management

How well are my assets utilized? What is their productivity? Where are they? How can I manage my assets better?

How it works

GPS Hardware installed in machine or truck.

Position and event data is sent to central server using cell network (GPRS).

Data held on server is accessed via Trimble Construction Manager from any internet connected PC.

Benefit Summary

Centralize management

Improve asset productivity

Improve site safety

Reduce maintenance and fuel costs

Manage asset usage Assist with theft recovery

Product Focus

Productivity Utilization and under utilization Understanding equipment costs and project

costs Understanding equipment operations from

your office Drilling down into project specific details eg –

cycle and load counts Monitoring planned maintenance Exception reporting (alerts) in real time

Utilization

Trimble Construction Manager provides three utilization calculations (all percentages):

All three values are presented in a “Utilization” report.

“Working Utilization” is used in a number of charts.

Running utilization = Run time / Expected hoursWorking utilization = Work time / Expected hours

Efficiency = Work time / Run time

Accurate “Work” and “Idle” Time

Trimble Construction Manager can calculate accurate “work time” and “idle time”:

1. GPS movement – mobile assets where movement is a good indicator of productivity, such as trucks and graders.

2. Sensor switch – assets where movement is not indicative of productivity, such as excavators, cranes.

3. Combination of both.

Two-Way Data Topics

What is two-way data? Why two-way data? Project management Data management As-built information Support Training Questions & Answers

What is Two-Way Data?

A technology that enables the bi-directional transfer of data between an office and machines over a series of data links– Data files– Machine specific files– Machine diagnostic– Screen snaps/text message

Why Two-Way Data?

1. Does your site have frequent design changes?2. Do you need to get design changes to the machine immediately?3. Does it take you too long to update files on a machine (including drive

time)?4. Have you ever wondered if a machine has a specific design on their

card?5. Have you ever struggled with troubleshooting machine control

problems over the phone?6. Do you need to know if your machines are up and running?7. Have you ever wanted to ask a question to a machine operator who

does not have a cell phone?8. Have you ever needed a DTM to verify project progress?9. Do you want to be more productive with your time?

SITECH (WA) PTY LTD

Project Management

Verify Machine Locations On Site Putting grade in the office Two-way data allows the

supervisor to view the same information as the operator, including – machine location – Real-time status on site

This facilitates real-time decisions and allows them to know at all times that their machine is being productive

Send a Text Message to Machines

Two-way data allows safe and fast text-based communication between the office and the machine– Ideal for YES / NO questions

Eliminates time delays from phone calls

Allows direction of machines from within the office

Data Management

Verify Data on a Machine

Confirm design files on a machine’s data card at any time

Upload new or revised design to all machines in one export

Eliminate cost– Machine downtime

– Drive time to the field

– Manpower

Verify Design in the Machine Troubleshoot designs in the

office Take a screen snap to see

problem area and locate on design

Locate problems faster

As-built Data Maintain daily progress

Support and Training

Confirm What Is on the Operator’s Screen Request a screen snap of the

Trimble display

Remote Diagnostics

View a screen snap of the operator’s display and the diagnostics– Version numbers– Serial numbers– Enabled options– Machine details– GPS status– Current offsets– Loaded design

Remote Diagnostics Retrieve radio diagnostic information

– IP statistics– CMR reception– Error logs– Temperature logs

Update Machine

Firmware updates can be uploaded to machine– Upload firmware to machine– Send a text message to operator to restart display– Display is flashed, machine comes back on-line
