Clue

By audience

Construction Management

• Gives equipment managers one live view of every machine's location, hours and status across mixed OEM fleets instead of a separate portal per telematics brand.
• Flags idle and under-utilized assets so machines get redeployed between active jobsites rather than rented in.
• Drives preventive-maintenance schedules off telematics engine hours, auto-opening work orders when a machine hits its service interval.
• Reconciles rental invoices against actual on-site utilization to catch machines still being billed after demobilization.

Project Manager

• Shows which machines are charged to the job and for how many hours, keeping equipment cost visible against the budget mid-project.
• Pulls timecard and charge-rate data from HCSS HeavyJob to forecast remaining equipment spend on the job.
• Confirms requested equipment actually arrived and is running, using GPS and engine-hour data instead of calls to the field.
• Surfaces machine downtime that is driving schedule slip on earthwork and paving operations.

Superintendent

• Dispatches machines and attachments between jobsites and tracks each move in one place.
• Shows which assets — owned and rented — are on the site right now without walking the yard.
• Pushes OEM fault-code and breakdown alerts so a replacement machine can be requested before the crew goes idle.
• Reviews the operator inspections submitted from the field each morning.

Foreman / Field Supervisor

• Completes daily walkaround and DOT inspections on a phone, with photos attached to the asset record.
• Reports a machine problem straight from the field, which opens a work order for the shop.
• Logs operator time against equipment and cost codes without paper tickets.
• Checks fuel and service status on assigned machines before the shift starts.

Executive Leadership

• Tracks fleet-wide utilization and owning-and-operating cost per machine class to inform buy, rent or dispose decisions.
• Compares equipment cost performance across divisions and regions from one dashboard.
• Answers fleet questions through the AI assistant in plain language instead of commissioning a report.
• Monitors telematics-derived idle time and fuel burn as a fleet-efficiency and emissions signal.

Accounting & Finance

• Feeds equipment hours and rates into job costing so machine time lands on the right cost codes.
• Reconciles rental invoices against tracked utilization before they are approved for payment.
• Pushes captured timecards into the ERP or accounting system rather than re-keying them.
• Tracks parts, service and fuel spend per asset to support owning-and-operating rate setting.

By phase

Pre-Construction

• Checks fleet availability and utilization before committing owned equipment to an upcoming job, so rental needs surface early.
• Supplies historical owning-and-operating cost per machine class to the equipment rates used in heavy-civil estimates.
• Plans mobilization by scheduling which assets move to the site and when.

Construction

• Tracks equipment location, engine hours and utilization across every active jobsite in real time.
• Runs preventive-maintenance and breakdown work orders against telematics hours to keep machines producing.
• Captures daily operator inspections, fuel transactions and machine time from the field.
• Reconciles machine hours against HCSS HeavyJob timecards so equipment cost charged to the job matches what actually ran.

Closeout & Operations

• Confirms demobilization and closes out rental agreements so off-hire dates match actual site departure.
• Rolls up total equipment cost for the job once the fleet has left the site.
• Feeds lifetime hours, service history and cost per asset into replace-or-retain decisions on the fleet.
