Asset Tracking and Fleet Management for the Infrastructure Sector
Full control over your infrastructure projects from planning to execution
In the infrastructure sector, work often shifts location – whether it’s within a project that moves forward or a job that needs to be completed elsewhere. Your equipment, tools, and people move with it.
At GPS-Buddy, we bring together the data from all your moving assets into one simple, clear platform. This gives you instant operational insights to optimise resource deployment, enabling you to adjust immediately, avoid downtime, and keep projects on track.
2,000+ market leaders trust our technology
Within Flowter, you can view the current location of all your equipment, tools, machines, and vehicles in one central dashboard.

Real-time location overview
We help you maximise the use of your assets by combining fleet management with the location data of all your materials. You can instantly see which people, vehicles, and equipment are on which construction site – or have been there.

Tracking without a power supply
Heavy tools, road plates, and containers have no power source – but knowing their location still pays off. Our state-of-the-art, compact asset tags provide up to 8 years of location visibility.

Geofencing
Draw digital boundaries on the map and link them to actions. This lets you see exactly which assets are inside or outside the zone – and even generate retrospective CO₂ reports.

Frequently asked questions and answers. Is your question not listed? Contact us – we’ll be happy to help.
How does GPS-Buddy help manage machinery on infrastructure projects?
GPS-Buddy gives you real-time insight into the location and utilisation of all your equipment on-site. With smart features like geofencing and automatic operating hours registration, you can see exactly where machines are, how intensively they are used, and when maintenance is needed. This prevents unnecessary downtime and ensures maximum availability of your assets.
Can I automatically record operating hours for maintenance planning?
Yes. GPS-Buddy automatically records all operating hours of vehicles and machines. This allows you to schedule maintenance based on actual usage rather than fixed intervals, reducing the risk of unexpected breakdowns, extending the lifespan of your equipment, and saving costs.
How does GPS-Buddy support CO₂ reporting for tenders?
With our CANbus integration and trip and operating hours tracking, you can measure the exact fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions per project site. This makes it easy to meet sustainability targets and have the reports increasingly required for public tenders in the construction and infrastructure sector readily available.
Is geofencing applicable to temporary construction and project sites?
Absolutely. With geofencing, you can set up virtual zones around a construction site or project area in just a few clicks. You’ll immediately see when vehicles or machines enter or leave, and you can generate accurate location reports per project – ideal for oversight, planning, and security.
How does GPS-Buddy protect my assets from theft or unauthorised use?
Our GPS trackers and energy-efficient RFID tags give you real-time insight into the location of your assets at all times. Location data continues to be transmitted even if your vehicle or machine is moved without authorisation, and the location history remains fully traceable.
What benefits does GPS-Buddy bring to the daily operation of an infrastructure project?
GPS-Buddy gives you control over the deployment of equipment and personnel. You save time through automatic recording of locations, hours, and fuel usage, while avoiding errors in administration or planning. The data is instantly converted into clear reports, helping you manage projects more effectively and make smarter cost and efficiency decisions.
Is GPS-Buddy easy to integrate with existing planning or ERP systems?
Yes. The platform is modular and easily integrates with popular ERP, maintenance, and planning systems via our API. This consolidates all information into one digital environment, enabling more efficient work and getting the most out of your existing software and asset management.
