Fleet Rabbit Construction Fleet Features That Matter
GPS tracking designed for yellow iron and heavy machinery, providing accurate location data even in off-road environments.
Create virtual boundaries around active job sites to monitor equipment presence, track hours worked, and trigger alerts for unauthorized movement.
Maintenance intervals based on engine hours and harsh conditions ensure excavators, dozers, and loaders are serviced before they break.
Monitor fuel levels on heavy equipment and receive alerts for sudden drops, preventing costly theft and unauthorized use.
Ensure only certified operators are using specific equipment, reducing liability and improving safety compliance on site.
Track how often and how hard equipment is being used to identify underutilized assets and optimize fleet allocation across projects.
Site supervisors can view equipment locations, request maintenance, and communicate with the office from a rugged mobile app.
Monitor safety certifications, inspection due dates, and operator licenses to ensure all assets and personnel are compliant.
Coordinate equipment moves between job sites efficiently, reducing transport costs and ensuring the right machine is at the right place.
Common Construction Fleet Problems and Solutions
Problem: Unplanned Equipment Downtime
Breakdowns of critical machinery like excavators or cranes can halt entire projects, causing massive delays and penalty costs.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionPredictive maintenance alerts based on engine hours and usage patterns help you service equipment before it fails, reducing downtime by up to 30%.
Book Demo for Maintenance AlertsProblem: Equipment Theft and Loss
Construction sites are prime targets for theft, and losing a piece of heavy equipment can cost tens of thousands of dollars.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionReal-time GPS tracking and geofence alerts notify you immediately if equipment moves outside approved zones or during off-hours.
Book Demo for Asset SecurityProblem: Fuel Theft and Waste
Fuel is a major expense, and siphoning or inefficient idling on heavy equipment can drain your budget quickly.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionFuel level monitoring and idle tracking detect anomalies and waste, helping you cut fuel costs by 25% or more.
Book Demo for Fuel ControlProblem: Low Asset Utilization
Without visibility, it's hard to know if equipment is sitting idle or working hard, leading to over-purchasing or rental costs.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionUtilization reports show exactly how much each asset is used, allowing you to right-size your fleet and move equipment where it's needed.
Book Demo for Utilization DataProblem: Unauthorized Equipment Use
Unqualified operators using heavy machinery increases accident risk and liability, especially on busy job sites.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionOperator ID systems ensure only authorized personnel can start and operate equipment, improving safety and accountability.
Book Demo for Operator IDProblem: Inefficient Logistics
Moving equipment between sites without coordination leads to wasted transport costs and delays in project timelines.
Fleet Rabbit SolutionDispatch tools and location visibility help you plan equipment moves efficiently, ensuring the right machine is at the right job site on time.
