With hundreds of thousands of dollars invested in trucks, excavators, backhoes, graders, and other equipment, tracking is crucial to keep close tabs on expensive assets.

Through global positioning system (GPS) and geostationary satellites, GlobalWave mobile terminals and the function-rich graphical interface enable operators to reduce operating costs and protect rental assets against equipment failure and theft by wirelessly monitoring critical machine operating parameters.

GlobalWave's Web accessible product provides at-a-glance visibility into the status of equipment, easily determining location and service hour meter data. The easy-to-navigate interface features street-level maps and color-coded status indicators to provide usage information almost instantly.

User-determined parameters and filters make searches for needed data rapid and efficient and help locate and dispatch equipment, maintenance, deter theft, or recover equipment.

"Automating labor intensive and error prone manual tasks, the GlobalWave Equipment Management System delivers immediate operational and equipment efficiency," explains Brad Poulin, GlobalWave Business Development director.

"By bundling hardware, software, and airtime, along with the ease and immediacy of Web-based access to information, we have made the system simple to adopt."
