The challenge

Plant lists drift the moment machines start moving

Plant moves between sites, crews and projects every week. Spreadsheets, whiteboards and workshop diaries cannot keep up, and the gaps show up as lost gear, missed services and failed audits.

Nobody knows where the plant actually is

The register says the roller is at the depot; the depot says it went to the northern job. Hours disappear into phone calls and drive-arounds. MapTrack shows live GPS positions for tracked plant and last-scan locations for everything else.

Services run on the calendar, not the hour meter

Calendar-based servicing over-services idle machines and under-services busy ones. Meter readings from OEM telematics and pre-starts should drive the schedule, so servicing lands when the machine needs it.

Pre-starts and certificates live on paper

Daily pre-starts in triplicate books and certificates in a filing cabinet mean compliance evidence is slow to produce and easy to lose. Digital pre-starts attach the evidence to the asset record automatically.

No one can say what a machine really costs

Servicing, repairs, hire charges and downtime are scattered across systems. Without per-asset cost visibility, repair-or-replace decisions and project costings run on gut feel.

Track everything

From 30-tonne excavators to the breaker on the back of the ute

Apply the right tracking method to each asset class: GPS on high-value plant, heavy-duty QR on attachments and tools, BLE where proximity is enough. Scans and transfers record chain of custody between crews and sites.

  • GPS trackers for live plant location and geofence alerts
  • Heavy-duty QR labels rated for harsh site conditions
  • Attachments tracked separately from parent machines
  • Bulk scanning for mobilisation and demobilisation audits
  • Offline-first mobile app for remote sites
Asset tracking

Compliance built in

Pre-starts that close the loop on plant faults

Operators complete plant pre-starts on a phone before the machine starts work. Submissions store against the asset with photos and signatures, and a failed item can raise a work order on the spot, so defects stop disappearing between the cab and the workshop.

  • Daily plant pre-starts with photo evidence and signatures
  • Failed checks raise and assign work orders automatically
  • Certificates and statutory inspections with due-date alerts
  • Compliance evidence attached to every asset record
  • Audit-ready history searchable in seconds
Pre-start inspections

Service on the meter

Work orders raised by engine hours, not guesswork

Meter readings stream in from 150+ OEM, telematics and fuel-card data sources. When a machine hits its service threshold, MapTrack raises the work order with the service history, parts and location attached, keeping the workshop ahead of breakdowns.

  • Hour-based, odometer-based and calendar-based triggers
  • Caterpillar, Komatsu, John Deere, Hitachi, Geotab and more
  • Manual readings captured at pre-start for untracked plant
  • Service history and costs stored per asset
  • Overdue servicing alerts to supervisors
Maintenance

Scale across projects

Plant management that scales from one depot to every state

Whether you run 50 machines from one yard or thousands of assets across multiple states, MapTrack keeps the same simple field experience while giving plant managers fleet-wide visibility.

Unlimited users means every operator, leading hand, mechanic and subcontractor uses the system without per-seat charges. Role-based permissions keep each crew focused on their own sites and assets.

Get started

How plant teams roll out MapTrack

Most plant teams are tracking assets within two weeks. Start with the high-value machines, then expand to attachments, tools and vehicles.

Week 1

Build the register

Import the plant list from your spreadsheet and let AI-assisted import match the columns. Fit GPS trackers to high-value machines and apply heavy-duty QR labels to attachments and tools.

Week 1-2

Connect telematics and meters

Connect OEM telematics feeds so engine hours and locations stream in automatically, then set hour-based service thresholds for each asset class.

Week 2-3

Digitise pre-starts

Load your plant pre-start checklists, or build them with AI form creation, and have operators complete them in the mobile app with failures raising work orders.

Week 3+

Plan and report

Turn on reservations for shared plant, set geofences for time-onsite reporting and give managers utilisation and cost dashboards by site and project.

Key features for plant and equipment management

Everything you need to track, inspect, service and cost a mixed plant fleet.

Stop the plant-list drift

Your plant register should update itself from the field

Every scan, pre-start, meter reading and transfer updates the same asset record. No more reconciling spreadsheets against reality at the end of the month.

Frequently asked questions

Common questions about managing plant, equipment and attachments with MapTrack.

Plant and equipment management software is a system that keeps every machine, attachment and piece of equipment in one register, with its location, operator, pre-start history, service schedule and costs attached. Instead of a plant list in a spreadsheet, a service diary in the workshop and pre-starts on paper, everything lives on the asset record. MapTrack covers the full loop: QR, BLE and GPS tracking, WHS-ready pre-start inspections, meter-based work orders, reservations and per-asset cost reporting.

Yes. Buckets, rippers, tilt hitches, compactor plates and other attachments each carry their own QR record with service history, separate from the parent machine. Small plant and tools are tracked the same way, so the register covers everything from a 30-tonne excavator to a generator and the breaker that travels with it.

Engine-hour and odometer readings flow into MapTrack from 150+ OEM, telematics and fuel-card data sources, including Caterpillar, Komatsu, John Deere, Hitachi and Geotab. When a machine reaches its service threshold, for example every 250 engine hours, MapTrack raises a work order automatically with the asset history attached. Machines without telematics use readings captured at pre-start or scan time.

Yes. Operators complete daily plant pre-starts on a phone with photos and signatures, and every submission is stored against the asset as compliance evidence. A failed check can raise a work order automatically. Certificates, inspection records and statutory due dates sit on the asset record with overdue alerts, so audit preparation is a search, not a paper chase.

Per asset, not per user. Plans start from $1 per asset per month with unlimited users on every plan, so every operator, supervisor, mechanic and subcontractor can use the system without per-seat charges. There is a 30-day free trial with no credit card, and the hardware store supplies heavy-duty QR labels and GPS trackers if you need them.
