IVO Systems is construction operations software for heavy civil teams. Companies use it to coordinate equipment across jobs, manage dispatch on a digital board, and keep tickets and field updates in one place. It can also surface telematics data and support basic maintenance tools like PM schedules and work orders.
Both IVO Systems and Clue help contractors track equipment and stay organized. The difference is what each platform is designed to drive.
IVO Systems is a strong fit when dispatch and daily production coordination are the priority. It helps planners see what is assigned, what is available, and what is changing, so moves happen faster with less back and forth.
IVO helps keep crews and assets aligned, while Clue helps prevent downtime and improve maintenance accountability.
Clue is built for equipment management and uptime. It ties telematics, engine hours, fault codes, and inspections directly to maintenance workflows, utilization, and cost tracking across a mixed fleet, with integrations that reduce manual updates
