Construction Equipment Fleet Management
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Engineering Research (IJMER) - Year 2015, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
Fleet management can be defined by three basic components: Equipment assignment and optimization, Production monitoring, and Position and material monitoring. Equipment assignment and optimization is the primary reason many construction companies choose to implement fleet management systems in the first place. By enabling the scheduling and assignment of all types of equipment from multiple manufacturers as well as shift change management from a central office location. The second critical element, production monitoring, is the ability to review information on machine cycle time, payload, loading performance and other key operational parameters. Fleet management provides visibility in real time to this kind of data which can be tracked by individual machine or operator, groups of machines, specific sites or an entire fleet enabling miners to make timely changes to improve loading performance and increase payload predictability. Position and material monitoring is the third key component. At its most basic level, fleet management is about monitoring equipment location for an entire fleet but beyond that, it also helps to ensure that machines are in the right location and that the amount and type of material they are moving is accurate. The study revealed to analyze performance factors such as dump movement and haul road congestion to boost overall site productivity
