Driving Uptime Across Construction and Infrastructure Projects
The construction and infrastructure industry depends on continuous uptime of high-value assets—cranes, excavators, concrete batching plants, compressors, and power generators. Unplanned breakdowns, poor spare part visibility, and compliance lapses can halt operations, increase costs, and delay project timelines.
PlantOps360 helps construction and infrastructure companies transform asset and maintenance management into a data-driven discipline. From preventive maintenance scheduling to IoT-based equipment monitoring, the platform enables project managers and field engineers to stay in complete control—anytime, anywhere.
PlantOps360 unifies work orders, assets, inventory, and documents under one digital platform, reducing downtime, improving cost predictability, and enhancing project execution efficiency across sites.
Challenges in Construction & Infrastructure Maintenance
Managing construction assets across multiple project sites presents complex technical, logistical, and compliance challenges. Common pain points include:
Unplanned Equipment Downtime
Without a structured preventive maintenance program, heavy equipment like cranes or concrete pumps often fail unexpectedly, delaying entire project timelines.
Poor Asset Visibility Across Sites
Tracking where each excavator, generator, or scaffold is deployed—or its maintenance history—is difficult without a centralized system.
Inefficient Work Order Communication
Maintenance requests often flow through WhatsApp groups, spreadsheets, or calls, leading to missed service updates and no historical traceability.
Manual Inventory Tracking
Spare parts, lubricants, filters, and consumables are often managed manually, causing overstocking at one site and shortages at another.
Compliance & Safety Risks
Construction sites are governed by stringent safety standards (ISO 45001, OSHA). Tracking inspections, safety audits, and equipment certifications is time-consuming without automation.
How PlantOps360 Solves These Challenges
PlantOps360 centralizes all maintenance operations into a single, cloud-based platform—accessible to field technicians, project managers, and equipment supervisors through desktop and mobile.
- Maintain a digital registry of every machine, vehicle, and tool with details like usage hours, maintenance intervals, and warranty information.
- Track asset movements across project sites with RFID tags or barcode labels integrated with Zebra mobile scanners.
- Use IoT sensors integrated with PlantOps360 to collect real-time data (engine temperature, vibration, or oil pressure).
- Automatically trigger maintenance when thresholds are breached—reducing mean time between failures (MTBF).
- Field engineers can raise work orders via mobile app, attach photos, and log issues instantly—even in offline mode.
Supervisors can assign, approve, and track jobs in real time from the dashboard.
- Integrate with ERP systems like SAP, Oracle, or Tally ERP to maintain unified inventory records.
- Track spare consumption per machine, set reorder alerts, and analyze usage trends.
- Digitize safety checklists, operator certifications, and site audit reports.
- Generate compliance reports on-demand for ISO, OSHA, or client audits.
Gain 360° visibility across plants using customizable dashboards powered by Power BI. Track KPIs like downtime trends, MTTR (Mean Time to Repair), OEE, and maintenance costs — in real time.
4 – 5 Real-World Use Cases
Predictive Maintenance for Earth-Moving Equipment
A leading EPC company integrated PlantOps360 with IoT sensors on excavators and dump trucks. The system detected early-stage hydraulic leaks through vibration data, allowing proactive repair scheduling.
Result: Reduced breakdown-related project delays by 40% and saved ₹25 lakh annually in unplanned downtime.
Multi-Site Asset Tracking
A construction conglomerate with 15 active projects used RFID tagging and mobile scanning through PlantOps360. They achieved real-time visibility of 2,000+ assets across India.
Result: 100% asset traceability and 20% reduction in idle equipment.
Contractor Maintenance Accountability
Subcontractors log maintenance work digitally through PlantOps360, with timestamps and image proofs. Supervisors verify before approvals.
Result: 35% improvement in task completion accuracy and reduced false service claims.
Safety & Audit Compliance Automation
Daily safety inspection forms and PPE checks are now digital. Supervisors generate safety compliance dashboards within minutes.
Result: Zero non-compliance penalties during external safety audits.
Spare Part Cost Optimization
By integrating with SAP, a firm automated spare part forecasting based on usage data.
Result: 18% cost reduction in parts procurement and improved spare availability.
