How it works

Four ways MapTrack keeps your asset register accurate and actionable.

1
One register for every asset type
Tools, equipment, plant, fleet and inventory in a single system. Custom fields and types so the register matches how you work. AI-assisted asset creation and imports speed setup.
2
Assign and track custody
Assign assets to people, crews, sites or projects. Field teams check in and out from mobile; you see who has what and where it should be. Role-based access keeps data appropriate to each user.
3
Bulk scanning and audits
Run fast verification and stocktakes with QR or barcode scanning. Bulk scan to confirm location and custody; gaps and exceptions are clear so you can fix drift before it becomes loss.
4
Lifecycle history in one place
Every change, event, inspection and maintenance record sits on the asset. No more scattered spreadsheets or folders. One audit trail for compliance and accountability.

Custody & accountability

Know who has what. Always

Assign assets to people, crews, sites or projects. Field teams check in and out from mobile. You see custody history and current holder at a glance. Role-based access keeps data appropriate to each user.

Bulk scanning

Verify fast with bulk scan

Run fast verification and stocktakes with QR or barcode scanning. Bulk scan to confirm location and custody. Gaps and exceptions are clear so you can fix drift before it becomes loss. According to the National Equipment Register (2024), construction equipment theft costs the US industry over $1 billion annually, with the average contractor losing 5–10% of tool inventory each year.

Why teams choose MapTrack for asset tracking

Built for mobile assets and field teams - reduce loss, prove compliance, scale with control.

Reduce loss and shrinkage

Clear accountability and audit trails. Know who had it last and where it should be; bulk verification catches missing or misplaced assets early.

Faster, provable audits

Scan-first and bulk workflows get audits done in the field. Evidence is tied to the asset so you can prove compliance when it matters.

Works where your team works

Full capability on mobile, tablet and desktop. If the field can't use it easily, the register drifts. MapTrack is built for field adoption.

Scales with your operations

From small teams to enterprise. RBAC, SSO and regional hosting so you can roll out across sites and crews with the right controls.

Why teams switch

Spreadsheets can't keep up with real-world asset tracking

Most teams start with spreadsheets. They work for a while. Then assets grow, people forget to update rows, and the spreadsheet becomes a fiction. Here is where it breaks down.

Data goes stale within days

Spreadsheets rely on people remembering to update them. In practice, entries are skipped, rows are duplicated, and the register drifts from reality. By the time you check, half the data is wrong.

MapTrack updates automatically when staff scan, check out or inspect an asset on mobile.

No accountability or audit trail

A spreadsheet tells you what should be where. It does not tell you who moved it, when, or why. There is no chain of custody, no timestamp, and no evidence for audits.

Every action in MapTrack is logged (who, what, when, where) with a full history per asset.

Audits take days instead of hours

Reconciling a spreadsheet against physical assets means walking every site with a clipboard, manually ticking off rows, and chasing discrepancies across departments.

Bulk QR scanning verifies assets in minutes. MapTrack flags what is missing, unscanned or in the wrong location.

No alerts for compliance or maintenance

Spreadsheets do not send reminders. Calibration dates, service intervals and warranty expiry slip past without anyone noticing until something fails or an audit finds the gap.

MapTrack sends automated alerts before due dates so nothing expires without action.

Use cases

See how asset tracking works in real operations.

Contractor tool and equipment tracking

Assign tools and plant to crews and projects; run regular scans so nothing goes missing between sites. Audits and pre-starts stay attached to each asset for compliance and handover.

Multi-site plant and fleet visibility

See where plant and vehicles are allocated. Combine QR or barcode at the asset with GPS or OEM data where you have devices. One view for mixed asset types.

Who uses MapTrack for asset tracking

Construction and civil contractors use MapTrack to track tools, plant and equipment across sites and crews. Facilities and field service teams keep assets assigned and audited. Mining and industrial operations use it for shutdowns, compliance and maintenance. If you have mobile assets that move between people and locations, and you care about accountability, audits and compliance, MapTrack is built for that. Per-asset pricing means you pay for what you track, with unlimited users so the whole team can use the platform.

Generate QR code labels from your register. Print on any label printer or order pre-printed labels. Apply to assets at the depot, warehouse or office. Each label links to the asset record.

Day 3–4

Set up workflows

Configure check-in/out, inspection forms, maintenance schedules and alerts. Use built-in templates or build custom forms with the AI form builder. The onboarding team helps at no extra cost.

Day 5+

Frequently asked questions

Asset tracking software is a digital platform that records, monitors and manages physical assets such as tools, equipment, vehicles and inventory. It replaces spreadsheets and paper registers with a real-time database where every asset has a record containing its location, custody, maintenance history, compliance status and lifecycle data. Modern platforms like MapTrack combine QR codes, GPS and barcode scanning in one system.

MapTrack is built for mobile assets: tools, equipment, plant, fleet and inventory that move across sites and crews. You define asset types and custom fields so the register matches your operations. Mixed fleets are supported, from hand tools to heavy plant and vehicles.

MapTrack uses per-asset pricing with unlimited users, so you pay based on how many assets you track. Not how many people use the platform. This makes it cost-effective for teams of any size. Pricing starts with a 30-day free trial with full access, no credit card required. Contact us for a custom quote based on your asset mix.

Most teams are operational within 1–2 days. MapTrack includes AI-assisted asset creation where you can snap a photo to auto-populate fields, bulk import from CSV or spreadsheets, and generate QR labels on demand. A dedicated onboarding specialist helps configure asset types, custom fields and user roles.

Yes. MapTrack supports CSV import to migrate your existing register. The AI import assistant maps columns, detects duplicates and validates data before import. Most teams migrate their full register in under an hour.

You assign assets to people, crews, sites or projects. Field teams use the mobile app to check in/out and update status. Bulk scanning (QR or barcode) lets you run verification and stocktakes quickly; gaps and exceptions are visible so you can follow up. Full history is kept on each asset for compliance and audits.

Spreadsheets lack real-time updates, accountability, scanning, automated alerts and audit trails. They break down when multiple people need access, when assets move frequently or when you need to prove compliance. Asset tracking software gives every asset a live record that field teams can update from their phone, with full history and reporting.

Yes. MapTrack supports multi-site, multi-company and multi-region operations. You can organise assets by site, project or department and control access with role-based permissions. GPS tracking adds live location for vehicles and high-value equipment. QR scanning tracks assets at check-in/out between sites.

It depends on the asset and what you need. QR code and barcode scanning work with labels and your phone or tablet. No extra hardware required for identification and audits. For live location and geofences, GPS trackers can be purchased from our hardware store starting at $100 per device. For meter-based maintenance (hours, ODO), OEM or telematics integrations can feed data where configured.

Yes. MapTrack is mobile-first with full capability on phone and tablet as well as desktop. Field teams can scan, assign, update and complete forms in the field. Offline support helps in low-connectivity areas. Role-based access ensures each user sees what they need.
