SITECH (WA) PTY LTD Trimble Construction Services Equipment and Mobile Asset Management
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
SITECH (WA) PTY LTD Trimble Construction Manager
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 hours Working utilization = Work time / Expected hours Efficiency = Work time / Run time 1 2 3
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.
Daily Activity Report
Work versus Idle Time
Utilization
Maintenance Report
Cycle Monitoring Could be fixed location “Load” or “Dump” site: Could be sensor or switch to indicate “Dump Up/Down” or “Ejector Out”:
Cycle Count / Load Reports
Real-time Alerts Management by exception. –Notification of specific asset activity –Variety of alert types: Idle Sensor switches (e.g. low fuel light). Ignition on/off. Started/Stopped moving. Site activity. Asset nearing maintenance. –Configurable time periods Asset 'Dump Truck #2' triggered TCM alert 'Dump Truck leaves Depot' on Tuesday, May 02, :44:49 AM. At address: Sandhill Close, Millbrook, BEDS Triggered by ‘Leave Site' event in 'Depot' site.
2-Way Messaging and Operator ID Real-time “2-way messaging” service –Use the terminal in machines and trucks to communicate directly with operators within TCM Operator ID –Monitors who is using what equipment and when

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
What is Two-Way Data? GPS Base Station IP Machine Radio Access Point/ IP Base Radio IP Repeater Radio Wired Backbone Office Network SiteVision Office Computer CMR Data
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?
