Pre-Starts with Immobilisation
Teletrack's PROSTART® Pre-Start system is a game-changer for job-site safety. By default, all Teletrack-enabled assets remain immobilised until operators complete a comprehensive, image-based safety questionnaire successfully.
Operators scan a unique QR code to access a customised pre-start checklist through Teletrack's web-app. The checklist covers critical safety checks including fluids, filters, and equipment condition. The asset only becomes operational after successful completion, reducing accident risks from faulty equipment.
If a pre-start fails, the asset remains locked and managers are immediately alerted.
Driver-ID
The Driver-ID system ensures only authorised, qualified personnel operate machinery. Each operator receives a unique login accessible via RFID, iButtons, or keypads, eliminating shareable access codes.
Operators access the pre-start questionnaire by scanning the QR code or using Driver-ID, with all activity logged for transparency. Managers can remotely verify qualifications, control access based on certifications, and monitor usage logs through the Teletrack dashboard.
The system prevents unauthorised use while tracking operator behaviour such as harsh acceleration or braking.
Generate Work Orders from Pre-Starts Where Issues Are Flagged
When operators flag problems during pre-starts — such as equipment damage or faults — the system automatically generates work orders. Managers receive real-time alerts and can assign service technicians to resolve issues, with all data logged in digital maintenance records.
This proactive approach minimises downtime and ensures only fully operational assets are used.
Routine Maintenance from Automatic Service Schedules
Teletrack's Maintenance Module automates customised work orders and service reminders based on asset usage hours and odometers. Service technicians log checks, inspections, parts, and faults into a digital logbook accessible via QR code.
The module supports 24/7 remote alerts for critical faults, enabling swift action to prevent accidents.
On-Site Inductions
Teletrack simplifies operator inductions by requiring new operators to complete digital registration via QR code, entering personal details, licences, and qualifications. Supervisors verify information remotely and approve access, after which operators receive unique login details via SMS or email.
The system supports site-specific induction videos and tracks compliance with renewal notifications.
By combining these features, Teletrack's PROSTART® system delivers a comprehensive solution for job-site safety, empowering businesses to protect their workforce and comply with regulations.
