ACG’s most attainable asset management solution is their VITAL Wireless Asset Tracker – offering automated hour meter readings and preventative maintenance (PM) at an affordable price. This compact, feature-rich, and economic solution is compatible with ANY powered equipment (mixed, scattered, and rental fleets included), making implementing asset tracking a breeze for both small and large businesses.

Vital - Wireless Asset Tracker for ANY Powered Fleet

 

VITAL Tracks Productivity While Prolonging Equipment Life Span

For many, implementing a new asset management tool into their operations sounds like a daunting task. This is why ACG has spent over 20 years fine-tuning their solutions to make leveraging automated asset management technology easy and straightforward. VITAL got its name due to it addressing the need to track the following crucial data points:

  • Battery Health Monitoring - Batteries and powered vehicles like forklifts represent significant investments. According to Waverley Forklifts, forklift battery costs range from $2,000 to $6,000 each, totaling up to $24,000 for a set of 12. Typically replaced every five years, VITAL's monitoring of battery water levels enhances performance and extends lifespan, reducing replacements and improving uptime.
  • Preventative Maintenance - VITAL offers real-time equipment health insights, enabling timely maintenance notifications and scheduling. Through ACG's AssetPro 360, automated reporting and reminders further prevent breakdowns, minimize downtime, and enhance asset lifespan.
  • Automated Hour Meter Readings - Save time and cut out the inevitable human error with automated hour meter readings. By tracking key productivity metrics, businesses can monitor equipment usage, identify inefficiencies, and optimize workflows to enhance overall fleet productivity.
  • GPS Equipment Tracking - Ensure real-time visibility of equipment location, preventing theft and streamlining asset recovery efforts.

 

VITAL Wireless Asset Tracker Features

In addition to tracking key operational data points, Access’s VITAL wireless asset tracker offers the following impressive features:

  • Automatic Idle Engine Shut-Off - VITAL promotes fuel efficiency and allows you to save on fuel costs by automatically shutting off your vehicle engine when idling.
  • Wi-Fi or Cellular Connectivity - VITAL is versatile and equipped to track key business insights for rugged indoor and outdoor operations by offering short range Wi-Fi or long range Cellular connectivity. 
  • AssetPro 360 Business Intelligence Platform - VITAL integrates with Access’s AssetPro 360 industrial internet of things (IIoT) business intelligence platform. Fleet managers can benefit from automated email reporting delivering key insights on productivity and maintenance (frequency is customizable) and receive timely SMS notifications for maintenance. AssetPro 360 also has an open API to easily embed into other third party platforms, including your ERP, EAM, CMMS, WMS, or MMS, to allow you to view all of your important business information in one place.
