Single pane of glass
Everything about an asset. In one place.
See Tracked and Untracked Equipment in One Asset View
Mixed fleets need one asset record for both GPS-connected and manually managed equipment. Clue keeps each asset tied to the work, history, and records teams need to manage it.
Equipment profile: Review location, hours, status, maintenance history, documents, and inspection records from the asset page.
Mixed fleet support: Manage tracked and untracked equipment side by side.
Map and location context: Review GPS-connected assets with status, location history, and supported telematics data.
Utilization context: Keep usage and hour records connected to utilization reporting across the fleet.
Asset documents: Attach photos, manuals, inspection certificates, purchase orders, and vendor invoices to the asset profile.
Bring GPS and Telematics Data Into the Asset Record
Clue pulls construction equipment telematics data into each asset record. It syncs engine hours and odometer readings. That record supports maintenance, dispatch, inspections, and Fleet Financials.
Connected telematics sources: Connect supported GPS, OEM, and telematics systems, including Samsara, John Deere, Caterpillar, Komatsu, Ford Telematics, TitanGPS, NextTraq, and AEMP-supported sources.
Rental data connection: Bring supported United Rentals data into the equipment view used for owned and rented assets.
GPS and telematics feeds: Bring supported location, engine-hour, odometer, utilization, and fault-code data into the asset record.
AEMP support: Use AEMP 2.0 (ISO 15143-3) connections where available to bring mixed-fleet telematics data into a standard equipment view.
Give Each Role the Equipment View They Need
Each role sees the details it needs. Equipment managers see location, utilization, and status. Dispatchers see available equipment, requests, and moves. Shop teams see work orders and PM status. Leaders see Fleet Financials, cost, and utilization.
Equipment manager view: Review fleet location, utilization, asset status, and maintenance visibility.
Dispatcher view: Manage resource planning, equipment requests, assignments, and delivery activity.
Shop manager view: Review work orders, PM schedules, inspection issues, and parts visibility.
Mechanic view: Access assigned work orders, asset details, inspection issues, and service history.
Leadership view: Review Fleet Financials, utilization, cost, and asset performance reporting.
Role-based access: Control what users can view or manage based on role, project, crew, division, or assigned scope.
Keep Field Work Connected From Mobile
Crews use their phones to update work orders, add parts, log time, run inspections with photos, and submit timecards. Shop, dispatch, and office teams see each update in the same record.
Mobile work orders: Create, update, add parts, log time, and mark work complete from mobile.
Mobile inspections: Complete inspection forms, capture pass/fail items, add notes, and attach photos from the field.
