Equipment Tracking

Equipment tracking uses GPS tracking technology to provide accurate location visibility and movement insight for high-value machinery, tools and portable assets. For industries such as construction, mining, logistics and hire, maintaining oversight of equipment is essential to reduce theft risk, minimise downtime and improve operational efficiency.

Without asset tracking, misplaced or underutilised equipment can lead to project delays, costly replacements and reduced productivity. Netstar’s GPS tracking for construction equipment helps businesses protect their investments while improving asset deployment across worksites and remote locations.

Netstar solutions are designed to monitor a wide range of mobile and high-value equipment, including:

• Earth-moving equipment – Maintain visibility across excavators, loaders and heavy machinery operating across multiple or remote sites.
• Construction equipment – Track high-value machinery to reduce theft exposure and support project scheduling.
• Trailers and containers – Monitor portable assets in transit or on-site to reduce loss and improve recovery.
• Tools – Improve accountability and reduce misplacement of essential worksite equipment.
• Rental equipment – Protect and manage hired machinery with rental equipment tracking and improve insight over returns and availability.
