SAN DIEGO-Qualcomm Inc. said its GlobalTracs equipment management system will be used on Case New Holland Inc.’s construction equipment.
The system collects, manages and transmits equipment operating status and location data and makes it accessible via a Web-based application or integrates it into back-end business software systems. “In addition to being a theft deterrent/vehicle recovery tool, GlobalTracs permits remote tracking of operating hours and maintenance schedules, offers maintenance reminders and monitors other critical factors to give the owner/manager a continuous and accurate picture of individual machines and overall fleet productivity,” explained Bob Bernardi of NHC. “The idea isn’t new, but the technology certainly is.”
