Construction & Manufacturing

Safer sites, smarter utilisation

Improve site safety and equipment utilisation across the floor — from active construction sites to high-throughput production lines.

Overview

How does RTLS help construction and manufacturing?

In construction and manufacturing, a real-time location system (RTLS) tracks workers, equipment, tools and materials to improve site safety and maximise the use of every machine. It turns the movement of people and assets across a site or floor into live, actionable intelligence.

LocateNow.ai unifies RFID, GPS and UWB into one platform, integrates with ERP systems such as Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle and SAP, and works with the hardware you already have. There is no rip-and-replace — most operations deploy in days, not months.

Capabilities

Everything you need to run a safer, leaner site

Protect your people and get more from every machine, tool and material on the floor.

Worker safety & proximity alerts

Live proximity detection warns workers and operators the moment a person and a moving machine get too close. Configurable thresholds keep teams safe around forklifts, cranes and heavy plant.

Equipment utilisation

See which machines are in use, idle or sitting unused across every zone in real time. Right-size fleets, cut unnecessary rentals and squeeze more value from capital equipment.

Tool & material tracking

Tag high-value tools and materials so crews find what they need in seconds, not hours. Reduce shrinkage and loss while keeping work flowing across large sites.

Preventive maintenance

Usage and runtime data feed maintenance schedules so service happens before a breakdown stops the line. Avoid costly downtime and extend the life of every asset.

Restricted-zone enforcement

Define geofenced danger and exclusion zones and get instant alerts when unauthorised people enter them. Keep crews clear of hazardous areas and high-risk operations.

Productivity analytics

Turn live movement data into dashboards that reveal bottlenecks, dwell times and throughput. Make evidence-based decisions to keep sites and lines running at pace.

How it works

From signal to insight in three steps

STEP 1

Tag your assets and people

Attach tags to workers, machinery, tools and materials across the site or floor. Existing RFID, GPS and UWB hardware can be used, so there is no need to start from scratch.

STEP 2

Anchors track location and proximity

Fixed anchors continuously track the location and proximity of every tagged item across the site or floor. The platform fuses signals into one accurate, real-time picture.

STEP 3

Act from one dashboard

Trigger safety alerts, surface equipment utilisation and schedule maintenance from a single dashboard. Data flows into your ERP so insight reaches planning and operations.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How does RTLS improve site safety?

Proximity alerts warn when workers and heavy machinery get too close, restricted-zone rules keep people out of danger areas, and instant headcounts support emergency response.

How does it raise equipment utilisation?

By showing what is in use, idle or missing in real time, teams can right-size fleets, reduce rentals and get more value from every machine.

Can it track tools and materials?

Yes. Tagging tools and materials cuts time spent searching, reduces shrinkage and loss, and keeps work moving across large sites and floors.

Does it integrate with our ERP or maintenance systems?

Yes. LocateNow.ai connects with Microsoft Dynamics, Oracle and SAP and offers open APIs, so utilisation data can drive maintenance and planning.

Does it work outdoors and indoors?

Yes. RFID, GPS and UWB are supported on one platform — UWB/RFID for precise indoor and on-site tracking, GPS for vehicles and wide outdoor areas.
