Providing greater control over a large fleet and subcontractors for a construction business
From recovering stolen vehicles to having full visibility over a fleet of vehicles and 80 subcontractors – ABAX has driven true value to this construction business.
Situated in March, Cambridgeshire, JMC Construction is a construction utility business, providing multi-utility contract work, civil engineering, grab hire and plant hire services.
With one branch, three full-time members of staff, 40 sub-contractors and a large fleet of mixed assets, the team at JMC wanted to gain greater control over vehicles when it came to both cost, and location.
"Due to us paying the fuel and owning our own vehicles, as well as having a field team of subcontractors – it was critical that we took full control."
Having spoken to the team at ABAX UK, it became clear that our system could offer the visibility JMC needed across their entire fleet.
Since installing various pieces of ABAX hardware, the construction firm has seen several benefits across the business. From an operational perspective, the live map eliminates the need for time spent manually calling multiple members of staff to see where they are, and looking at productivity and timesheets, the system allows the team to check for any inaccuracies.
Unfortunately, JMC has been targeted by thieves, an issue that we know has increased in the construction industry over recent years. However, using the ABAX system, it was possible to recover two vehicles that had been stolen, as our hardware remained undetected and intact.
"We would recommend ABAX to other companies, it’s the 3rd telematics system we have used and it’s by far the best."
