November 7, 2023. Aalborg, Denmark: IOT services provider Trackunit has strengthened its relationship with global OEM Hilti by adding more than 500,000 Hilti On!Track tags to its global network of Bluetooth gateways.
The tie-up enables Hilti to offer their customers greatly enhanced Hilti tool visibility and also means that customers of both companies will have the option of viewing their ON!Track tagged Hilti tools via an app installed on Trackunit’s Marketplace which will be visible in Trackunit Manager.
Marketplace is the doorway to Trackunit’s extendable platform Iris, a data-rich source of insights that fosters collaboration with the industry as part of an evolving ecosystem aimed at benefitting construction as a whole.
“Our commitment is centered around becoming the best productivity partner for our customers,” said Michael Neidow, EVP of Hilti’s Construction Software Unit. “By seamlessly integrating Hilti ON!Track tags into Trackunit’s extensive network, we have not only enhanced the visibility and management of our tools but have also streamlined our customers’ operational experience.
“This partnership embodies our vision of creating a more connected and efficient construction industry,” added Neidow.
Lichtenstein-headquartered Hilti has been in a strategic partnership with Trackunit since January 2022 via the ‘Works with Trackunit’ program, developing its telematics solution based on Trackunit’s cutting edge telematic capabilities and global network.
For Trackunit, the deepening of the tie up with Hilti is vindication of the ‘Works With Trackunit’ program and a prime example of how it makes the customer experience easier.
