Introduction

Managing mobile assets such as industrial containers, skips, and portable units is a growing challenge across construction, waste management, and logistics sectors. These assets are often distributed across multiple locations and left unattended, increasing the risk of loss, theft, or inefficient use.

CONVIVO Connect provides advanced asset tracking solutions that enable businesses to monitor container location and movement in real time, improving security, utilisation, and operational control.

Challenge

Industrial containers and similar assets frequently change locations, making manual tracking unreliable and inefficient. Without accurate visibility, companies face several risks:

• Asset theft and loss

• Misplaced equipment across sites

• Project delays due to missing resources

• Increased operational costs

Traditional methods such as manual inspections or basic logging systems fail to provide real-time insights. On large construction or industrial sites, containers can be moved without notice, leaving managers without the data needed to react quickly.

The lack of continuous tracking leads to reduced accountability and limits the ability to optimise asset usage.

Solution

CONVIVO Connect offers a flexible IoT-based asset tracking system designed for non-powered and mobile equipment such as containers, dumpsters, and storage units.

Using compact, battery-powered tracking devices, businesses gain independent, real-time visibility of each asset across all locations.

How it works

Our solution provides configurable tracking modes tailored to operational needs:

• Movement-based tracking
  Increased reporting frequency when assets are in motion, ensuring visibility during transport or unexpected movement.

• Scheduled updates
  Location data can be transmitted at predefined times, enabling regular reporting without unnecessary battery usage.

• Event-based alerts
  Instant notifications when movement starts or stops, allowing immediate action in case of unauthorized activity.

In addition, tamper detection mechanisms alert users if a tracking device is removed or interfered with, further enhancing security.

Installation is quick and simple, with mounting options designed for fast deployment and repositioning across different assets.

KEY BENEFITS

Continuous asset visibility

Track containers and equipment across multiple locations in real time.

Receive alerts for unauthorized movement or tampering.

Ensure assets are available where and when they are needed.

Improved security and theft prevention

Operational efficiency

Faster recovery of lost assets

Accurate location data supports quick retrieval.

Adapt reporting intervals based on asset usage patterns.

Quick installation without complex setup or wiring.

Customisable tracking strategies

Easy deployment

REAL-WORLD APPLICATION

Companies managing distributed assets—such as construction containers, recycling skips, or mobile storage units—benefit significantly from automated tracking.

For example, organizations can schedule regular location updates to maintain oversight while also receiving instant alerts in case of unexpected movement. This combination of predictive visibility and real-time response reduces risk, improves planning, and enhances overall asset management.
