M2M and asset management

Managing your assets can be a costly process. O2’s M2M solutions can help you save time and money and improve your monitoring capabilities.

Fixed asset management

Almost any fixed asset can be monitored using M2M, giving you the ability to:

• Save time and money by conducting routine manual checks, upgrades and changes remotely
• Monitor remote or hard to reach machines more efficiently with an ‘always on’ SIM
• Integrate with alarms to allow one SIM to give you both monitoring and security control
• Take advantage of more business opportunities by making one-off, remote or hazardous environments unsuited to fixed line systems feasible

Moving asset management

Using M2M to monitor your company vehicles via the GSM/GPRS network gives you complete visibility and control of your assets, even when they’re on the road.

By sending reports at pre-defined regular intervals or alarms when a defined threshold has been breached, you get both real time and historic information to help you maximise the efficiency of your vehicles.

M2M can help you with:

• Driver monitoring – poor driving habits lead to expensive repairs. Track pedal activity, speed and fuel consumption to improve this and address areas of waste
• Vehicle monitoring – see where your fleet is, how long it takes to reach its destination and where the next pick up / delivery should be sent
• Load monitoring – ensure that loads stay at the right temperature, aren’t tampered with and reach the right destinations
