Get the right equipment to the right team

Specialist kit — test sets, locators, splicers, generators — is shared across vans, depots and regions. GeoTrace shows which van every item is on, so engineers start the day with what the job needs.

Sound familiar?

When specialist kit is shared between teams, the question isn’t whether you own it. It’s whose van it’s on today.

“It’s on someone’s van”

A fusion splicer or cable locator is shared between teams. Finding it means a round of calls and, often, a wasted journey.

“We can’t start without it”

An engineer arrives on site without the right test set. The job is rebooked and the customer is left waiting.

“How many do we actually have?”

Without a live count, regions over-order kit to be safe, and older equipment quietly disappears.

Morning allocation, checked automatically

Assign kit to each van. As engineers load up at the depot, GeoTrace checks each van against its list and flags anything missing before the vans head out.

Shared equipment, on the right team’s van

When a shared item turns up on another team’s van, you get an alert — so it can be swapped back before someone needs it on the other side of the region.

Plus everything else in GeoTrace

It all sits in the same GeoTrace dashboard as your vehicle tracking, so there's nothing extra to learn.

Teams and regions

Role- and team-based access, so each regional manager sees their own vans and equipment.

Engineers see their own kit

The companion app shows each engineer the equipment assigned to their van.

Trip history

Replay any journey to see when a van arrived on site and how long it stayed.

Tag battery warnings

Tags warn you well before their batteries run flat, so nothing drops off the allocation.
