EquipmentShare’s T3 technology was named the fleet management innovation of the year at the AutoTech Breakthrough Awards.

T3, an operating system for construction, is a suite of applications that helps contractors and industrial and utility professionals manage their assets, people and materials in one place. The T3 platform features mobile and desktop applications that allow users to manage their fleet utilization, health, location and maintenance regardless of vehicle or fleet make, model or OEM.

“Disconnected assets are a problem for many industries, like construction, trucking, plumbing and HVAC and more,” Bryan Vaughn, managing director of the AutoTech Breakthrough Awards, said. “Many fleet managers rely on memory to track their fleet. T3 from EquipmentShare allows them to view equipment status and location from their cell phone or computer. We’re proud to present EquipmentShare with the fleet management innovation of the year award for providing visibility to fleet management in construction and beyond.”

The annual AutoTech Breakthrough Awards program conducts an analysis and evaluation of automotive and transportation technology categories, including connected car, electric vehicles, engine technology, automotive cybersecurity, sensor technology and traffic technology. This year’s program attracted more than 1,400 nominations from more than 15 different countries.

EquipmentShare launched T3 this year to build upon its fleet management system, ES Track, which helps contractors manage fleet and equipment assets.

“We’re honored to win this award from AutoTech Breakthrough,” Willy Schlacks, president and co-founder of EquipmentShare, said. “Our team has worked hard to develop this technology for our customers. Our mission was to build an operating system that would go beyond just asset tracking to help make construction more efficient. Our customers needed a solution to digitize their paper-and-pen workflows and streamline communications around fleet management tasks and more. It’s technology that helps our customers build with control.”

The T3 Fleet app, one of several solutions offered in the T3 platform, allows fleet managers, equipment managers, service managers, operators and office administrators to manage equipment and vehicle assets from anywhere via mobile and/or desktop devices. T3 Fleet monitors machine downtime, GPS location and maintenance intervals for visibility and control over utilization, including assets that are owned or rented from outside vendors. EquipmentShare’s rental and retail customers can access the T3 technology when they rent or purchase equipment from any EquipmentShare location.
