FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can construction companies track plant and equipment across multiple sites?
Argus tracks every asset — vehicles and high-value powered plant — in real time across concurrent sites. Geofencing confirms which site each machine is on, and the Asset Reporting Suite shows utilisation. This gives project managers live visibility of where equipment is working, helps allocate fleet costs to individual projects, and flags underused plant that could be redeployed.
Does GPS tracking help recover stolen construction equipment in NZ?
Yes. Argus live tracking and Theft Recovery give you the real-time location of vehicles and plant, so stolen or unauthorised-use assets can be located and recovered faster. Geofencing can alert you when equipment moves outside an approved site or after hours, helping reduce theft of high-value machinery from construction sites.
How do I prove site attendance and hours for billing and payroll?
Argus geofencing logs arrival and departure times at each site automatically, creating a verifiable record of attendance and hours worked. That data feeds billing and payroll without manual timesheets, and gives you defensible evidence for client invoices. The Check Sheet App also captures pre-start checks tied to each vehicle and operator.
How does fleet tracking support Health and Safety at Work Act duty of care on construction sites?
Argus helps construction firms meet Health and Safety at Work Act duty-of-care obligations through driver-behaviour monitoring, asset compliance management and the Check Sheet App for pre-start inspections. Real-time tracking and overspeed alerts — averaging around 40% fewer overspeed events — give you documented evidence that you're actively managing fleet and operator safety.
