Construction Tool Tracking Solution
Managing tools on busy construction sites is a persistent challenge that impacts productivity, budgets, and project timelines. Our specialized construction tool tracking system provides comprehensive visibility of all your valuable tools and equipment.
The Cost of Lost Tools in Construction
The construction industry loses billions annually to tool theft, misplacement, and inefficient tool management:
- The average construction company spends 90 hours per month searching for tools

- Tool theft from job sites exceeds $1 billion yearly in the US alone
- Project delays due to missing tools can cost thousands per day
Our tracking solution addresses these challenges with a robust, construction-specific approach to tool management.
