MACHINE CONTROL & TELEMATICS SOLUTIONS

SMARTER MACHINES, SMOOTHER JOBS: MACHINE CONTROL & TELEMATICS SOLUTIONS

You wouldn’t build a house without a level, so why run heavy equipment without the right technology? These days, staying ahead in construction isn’t just about big machines — it’s about smart machines. Machine control and telematics take your machines to that next level. Whether you need to nail grade the first time, cut down on rework and fuel costs, or keep tabs on your fleet without playing detective, we’ve got the tools to make it happen. From pinpoint-accurate grading to real-time fleet tracking, our technology solutions help keep your projects on time, on budget, and stress-free. Ditch the guesswork and put technology to work for you.

What is Telematics?

Equipment manufacturers are installing telematics systems as standard equipment on an increasing number of their product offerings each year. And for good reason. Telematics systems combine GPS technology, on-board diagnostics, and monitoring sensors to track, log, and report vital information on the performance and operation of your machines. Telematics data can show you everything from the location of your machines to fuel consumption, idle times, machine alerts, driver behavior, and more.

Solutions available for*:

  • Skid steers and CTLs
  • Mini and full-size excavators
  • Wheel loaders
  • Backhoes
  • Rollers
  • Dozers

Contact us today to find out how to bring telematics to your job site.
*Available on select new and used machines. Ask your local branch representative for details. 

How Telematics helps on the job site

How exactly does telematics help you with your job site? Read below to find out how:

INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY 

  • Telematics provides real-time analytics to make it easy for you to track, measure, and manage engine idle time, fuel levels, and machine performance throughout the workday. It allows you to address inefficiencies and cut down on operating costs. 

ACCURATE JOB COSTING 

  • Accurate tracking of machine usage and performance is key to reliable forecasting and bids. CASE SiteWatch Telematics makes it simple to get a detailed picture of your fleet’s capabilities and minimizes manual data entry so you can allocate your resources more effectively. 

DEPENDABLE SECURITY 

  • Protect your fleet with features such as machine curfew, geofencing, and motion detection, even when the machine is turned off. Rest easy knowing that if unauthorized usage or movement occurs, the system can aid in tracking and recovery. 

SIMPLIFIED MAINTENANCE 

  • Stay a step ahead of machine maintenance with predictive maintenance that tracks the specifics of your unique machine usage. Track maintenance history, set automatic alerts, and have reminders sent via email to you and your dealer. 

FLEXIBLE REPORTING 

  • Have up-to-the-minute spreadsheets at the ready and customize the information received to meet your needs. Plus, the SiteWatch API enables you to aggregate data from several telematics systems into a single database for simple, mixed-fleet reporting. 

PROACTIVE DEALER SUPPORT 

  • With SiteWatch, Southeastern monitors your fleet by receiving equipment alerts. This enables us to help diagnose issues remotely, minimize service response time, pinpoint part needs, and give you some extra backup to oversee your operation. 

EFFICIENT UTILIZATION

  • Get the most from your fleet and offset rental costs by identifying under-or-over-used machines. Improve job assignment effectiveness and make informed adjustments of equipment or crew as needed. 

SATELLITE COMMUNICATION

  • CASE’s SiteWatch provides a connection to the equipment no matter its location on the globe. With the remote operation, alarm notifications are transmitted in real-time, and the machine’s location and all other operating data occur periodically. 

DESKTOP AND MOBILE APP 

  • Check your telematic software on a PC, tablet, or smartphone so you have your important information with you wherever you go. *Internet connection required. 

 

What is Machine Control?

CASE has partnered with Leica Geosystems to create tailor-made hardware and software solutions for all positioning and measuring tasks in road and general construction. Available in 1D, 2D, or 3D packages, their SiteControl software utilizes lasers and satellite technology to enable reliable and repeatable precision work.* And with many jobs requiring machines with machine control, this is a financial investment you won’t want to skip on.

 

HOW MACHINE CONTROL HELPS ON THE JOB SITE

Read on for some great advantages that SiteControl continues to pay back job site after job site.

SAVES MONEY 

  • Machine control prevents rework, over-digging, undercutting, lost time, and wasted fuel. And getting the job done right the first time means that your machines stay newer for longer, so you can save money on maintenance costs. 

 

INCREASES PRODUCTIVITY

  • Laser and GPS-guided cuts provide improved performance even for the most seasoned operators. 

 

MORE ACCURATE JOB COSTING

  • Machine control technology allows contractors to more accurately estimate the specific amount of time, materials, and personnel needed for a job site. 

GREATER UTILIZATION AND FLEXIBILITY 

  • SiteControl allows contractors to plan equipment usage around the job site more intelligently. Expand the current machine’s capabilities and use them in other applications. 

REAL-TIME JOB SITE INFORMATION

  • From a single job site model, contractors can work in sync with each other. With greater data integration, contractors can be sure that they are working on current specs. 

SCALABLE AS YOU GROW 

  • Invest in the solution you need today and expand when you need it. Purchase a simple 1D system and add extra components to evolve to a 2D or 3D system.
