Equipment GPS tracking, running hours and utilisation

Increase utilisation. Reduce downtime. Protect your equipment.

Postrack gives you real-time visibility into where your machines are, how much they are used and when they need service. You manage your equipment fleet with facts – not assumptions.

Control equipment usage

Many equipment owners lack continuous insight into location, usage and contract compliance. That leads to lost hours, incorrect billing, unnecessary maintenance, and a higher risk of theft.

Postrack provides a clear, live overview that immediately increases capacity and cuts costs.

  • See where machines are in real time
  • Track actual running hours, not estimates
  • Detect use outside contract time or location
  • Act immediately on deviations

GPS tracking built for tough environments

Postrack uses battery-powered and wired GPS trackers designed for heavy equipment and harsh conditions. Devices are ultra rugged, stay in place and deliver stable data year-round. Even without external power. 
 
Location data is combined with usage and history, so you always know:
  • Current position
  • Operating hours
  • Historical movement and usage
 
This lets you run the fleet based on reality, not guesswork.

Maintenance based on real running hours

Service too early and you waste money. Service too late and you risk breakdowns. With Postrack, maintenance planning is driven by actual operating hours.

  • Schedule service when it is truly needed
  • Avoid unnecessary maintenance
  • Reduce unexpected downtime
  • Extend equipment lifespan

 

Billing is accurate as well, since over-hours and rental time are logged automatically.

Save time and avoid operational delays

Lost or “borrowed” machines are found in seconds. Site managers stop calling around and start planning with confidence. Higher transparency ensures resources are used correctly from day one. 

Built-in theft protection

Equipment theft is costly and disruptive. Postrack reduces risk with automated alerts and live visibility.
  • Alerts for movement at the wrong time
  • Alerts when equipment leaves approved areas
  • Real-time position for fast recovery
 
You get a complete overview of the fleet and can act immediately on suspicious activity. 

Easy to deploy and scale

Postrack integrates easily with existing systems and requires minimal installation on the machine. This makes the solution scalable, secure and easy to roll out – whether you manage a few machines or a large fleet.

Key benefits

  • Higher utilisation of existing equipment
    You can see which machines are in use, idle, or underused, revealing hidden capacity and reducing the need to buy or rent additional equipment.
  • Accurate billing and revenue protection
    Running hours and usage are recorded automatically to ensure correct invoicing, over-hours, and contract compliance, reducing disputes.
  • Lower maintenance costs and less downtime
    Maintenance is scheduled based on actual running hours, not estimates, preventing premature or late servicing and unplanned breakdowns.
  • Reduced theft and loss
    Live GPS tracking and alerts reduce the risk of theft by enabling immediate action to recover assets if equipment moves unexpectedly or leaves a designated area.
  • Faster planning and operational efficiency
    Machines are found instantly, enabling site managers to stop calling around and start planning confidently. This saves time, reduces delays, and boosts productivity.
